ACRAL MYXOINFLAMMATORY FIBROBLASTIC SARCOMA (INFLAMMATORY MYXOHYALINE TUMOR OF DISTAL EXTREMITIES) : CASE REPORT

Abstract

We present a case of acral myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma of subcutaneous tissue on the right hand of a 44- year-old woman. The mass appeared clinically as subcutaneous nodule with a recent history of slow growth. Microscopically, there were inflammatory cells and lipoblast or ganglion like cells in a myxoid stroma. Immunohistochemically the tumor cells were immunoreactive for vimentin, CD68, pancytokeratin and CD34 and were negative for smooth muscle actin, desmin, EMA, HMB-45, LCA, CD30, ALK1, NSE, GFAP, chromogranin, p53, Ki67 and S-100 protein. We emphasize the importance of distinguishing this lesion from other benign and malignant myxoid tumors of soft tissue.
