Spindle cell carcinoma (SpCC) or sarcomatoid carcinoma is a highly malignant variant of squamous cell carcinoma which comprises 2% to 3% of all laryngeal cancers. It is considered to be a biphasic tumor that is composed of a squamous cell carcinoma (in situ or invasive) and spindle cell carcinoma with sarcomatous appearance. Most spindle cell tumors are polypoid and pedunculated; they are often...
Eight cases of uveal malignant melanoma were studied with the electron microscope with the purpose of comparing the ultrastructural features of the three basic cell types (spindle A, spindle B, and epithelioid) originally described by Callender under the light microscope. Five of the eight tumors were of pure cell type, and three were mixed. This was undertaken because of earlier diverse opinio...
Anaplastic carcinoma (AC) of spindle cell type is an exceedingly rare ovarian malignant neoplasm. The histo-genesis of these tumors is still controversial. Although it was first thought to carry an invariably unfavorable prognosis, recent data indicates that this does not apply to stage Ia tumors. To date, there have been less than ten cases of anaplastic spindle cell carcinoma reported in the ...
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are an unusual and heterogeneous group of spindle cell tumors that can also appear on the exterior of the gastrointestinal tract (extra-GISTs). Despite the fact that extra-GISTs or large rectal GISTs can lead to the clinical impression of a prostatic mass, these tumors are, in general, excluded in the differential diagnosis of spindle cell tumors observed...
Spindle cell lipoma (SCL) is a rare lipoma variant that account for approximately 1.5% of all adipocyte-origin tumors; SCL usually occurs on the posterior neck or shoulder. The histological characteristics of SCL include mature, univacuolar fat cells and fibroblast-like spindle cells in a matrix of collagen and mucoid material. It is important to note that spindle cell lipoma can be mistaken bo...
Sarcomatoid change has been well documented in the various subtypes of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and its presence is known to portend a worse prognosis in RCC. Mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma is a RCC subtype, which is defined as polymorphous histology wherein the spindled epithelial cell is an inherent carcinomatous component. Many of these putatively low-grade tumors have been pr...
Spindle cell lipoma is a relatively rare adipocytic neoplasm, which usually occurs in the posterior neck, shoulder or upper back of male patients aged 45-65 years. We report here an unusual coexistence of ordinary and spindle cell lipoma. The patient presented with a painless mass in the area of the right scapula. Imaging was suggestive of a lipomatous mass, possibly liposarcoma. Histological e...
Uterine rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) typically presents as a mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumors. Pure RMSs of the female genital tract are uncommon. Spindle cell variant of RMS is a rare morphologic subtype of embryonal RMS and mostly occurs in the paratesticular region of children. Here, we present a case of uterine spindle cell RMS in a 76-year-old woman. The tumor, 20×15×7 cm in size, was hig...
The oncogenic phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-AKT-mammlian target of rapamycin pathway (PI3K-AKT-mTOR) pathway is known to be activated in uterine smooth muscle tumors, and Stathmin 1 (STMN1) expression has been identified as a marker of PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway activation. We hypothesized that STMN1 may have some diagnostic utility and explored how well STMN1 expression correlated with histologic c...
malignant transformation of ameloblastomas arising from an odontogenic cyst or de novo is wellrecognized. malignancies in ameloblastomas may involve metastasis or a local dysplastic change in the tissue. the latter are classified as ameloblastic carcinomas. a 75-year-old male presented with a mandibular cystic swelling, with no evidence of metastasis. dysplastic ameloblastic cells with spindlec...
