Mitotically Active Plexiform Fibrohistiocytic Tumor
Plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor is an intermediate malignant tumor situated in superficial soft tissues. It affects children and young adults. The tumor is most commonly located on upper extremities, whereas involvement of back region is rare. Mitotic activity is generally low (~3/10 HPF). It is rare, but it can exhibit aggressive behavior, so total excision with clear surgical margins and lon...
متن کاملPlexiform Fibrohistiocytic Tumor of the Neck
Plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor (PFT) is a rare, low-grade soft tissue tumor that occurrs primarily in children and young adults. The most common location of PFT is the upper extremity, and there are very few reports of PFT in the neck. We report here on a case of PFT presenting as a painless subcutaneous nodule in the neck of a 46-year-old woman. Histologically, this subcutaneous tumor was co...
متن کاملPlexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor—report of one case with regional lymph node metastasis
A plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor (PFT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm primarily occurring in children and young adults. PFTs have been classified as fibrohistiocytic tumors of intermediate malignancy because of the high local recurrence rate and possible lymph node and distant metastasis. Histologically, PFTs are poorly demarcated dermal-to-subcutaneous tumors composed of small nodules or cel...
متن کاملPlexiform Fibrohistiocytic Tumor on the Ear: Case Report and Immunohistochemical Investigation of Stromal Factor
Plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor (PFT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm of intermediate malignant potential with a high local recurrence rate. In this report, we describe a case of PFT on the ear, which showed a dense deposition of periostin (POSTN) in the stromal areas of the tumor. In addition, dense infiltration of CD163+CD206- tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) was detected in the same areas...
متن کاملMyxoid Plexiform Fibrohistiocytic Tumor Masquerading as Ganglion Cyst: A Case Report and Literature Review
Background. Plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor is a distinctive mesenchymal neoplasm of low-grade malignancy, with the capacity for biphasic differentiation toward a fibroblastic or histiocyte-like morphology. Clinically, these lesions affect different areas of the body and appear as painless, slowly growing, dermal or subcutaneous masses. To date, only three cases of myxoid variant have been rep...
