Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Tumor (PEComa) of the Uterine Cervix in a Patient with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex: A Literature Review.
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComa) are a rare type of mesenchymal tumor arising from perivascular epithelial cells. These tumor cells are a co-expression of both melanocytic and myogenic antigens, such as HMB 45 and smooth muscle actin, and at least in some patients, are located around vessels. PEComas has been reported at various sites, including visceral organs, soft tissue, the pr...

متن کاملMalignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) of the femur: a case report and literature review
BACKGROUND We describe a case of malignant perivascular epithelial cell tumor (PEComa) arising primarily in the distal left femur of a 47-year-old male. CASE PRESENTATION The patient presented with pain accompanied by progressive swelling of his left thigh. Computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an osteolytic lesion. Curettage of the lesion was reported as...
متن کاملMalignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) of cervix with TFE3 gene rearrangement: a case report.
In this study, we reported the first PEComa arising within the cervix with TFE3 gene rearrangement and aggressive biological behavior. Morphologically, the tumor showed infiltrative growth into the surrounding parenchyma. The majority of tumor cells were arrayed in sheets, alveolar structures, or nests separated by delicate fibrovascular septa. There was marked intratumoral hemorrhage, necrosis...
متن کاملPerivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) in the genitourinary tract.
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are mesenchymal tumors composed of histologically, immunohistochemically, ultrastructurally, and genetically distinctive cells. PEComas have been described in different organs and are considered ubiquitous tumors. In this review we discuss recent informations related to PEComas in the genitourinary tract.
