RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To present a case report of sinonasal glomangiopericytoma (GPC) in a female patient in her thirties and to highlight the importance of collecting pathology specimens even in routine sinus surgery cases. METHODS: A case report detailing the diagnosis of GPC in a female in her thirties, including her initial presentation, treatment, and follow-up, along with a brief review of the literature. RESULTS: Pathology of the collected specimen revealed sinonasal GPC along with chronic rhinosinusitis. Immunohistochemistry was positive for SMA, beta-catenin, and cyclin D1; and negative for STAT6, ERG, pankeratin, SOX10, and S100. CONCLUSION: This diagnosis expands the knowledge around the demographic profile of GPC patients. GPC should be included in the differential diagnosis of sinonasal masses, even in younger patients. The case highlights the importance of collecting the entire pathology specimen in all cases, even of ones that seem routine and benign.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Myopericytoma is a rare spindle cell tumor of mesenchymal origin, typically benign, characterized by concentric proliferation of tumor cells around blood vessels within subcutaneous tissue. It primarily occurs in middle-aged adults and is often located in distal extremities, although cases have been reported in proximal extremities and head-neck regions. However, occurrences within the oral cavity are exceedingly rare. To date, literature reviews have identified only two cases in children under 10 years old and reported only five cases of myopericytoma occurring in the lip region. We provide a comprehensive review and analysis of all documented cases to better understand this condition. CASE PRESENTATION: A 7-year-old girl presented to oral and maxillofacial surgery with the discovery of a painless mass on the inner aspect of the upper lip. The diagnosis of myopericytoma was confirmed by histological examination (HE staining), alcian blue staining, and immunohistochemistry. CONCLUSIONS: Following surgical excision, there were no signs of recurrence at a 3-month follow-up. The pathological diagnosis of myopericytoma is quite challenging, and immunohistochemical testing is necessary.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) of the central nervous system are rare and treatment options are not well established. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of radiotherapy (RT) and re-radiotherapy (re-RT) for de novo intracranial SFT and recurrent intracranial SFT. METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed efficacy and toxicity of different RT modalities in patients who received radiotherapy (RT) for intracranial SFT at Heidelberg University Hospital between 2000 and 2020 following initial surgery after de novo diagnosis ("primary group"). We further analyzed the patients of this cohort who suffered from tumor recurrence and received re-RT at our institution ("re-irradiation (re-RT) group"). Median follow-up period was 54.0 months (0-282) in the primary group and 20.5 months (0-72) in the re-RT group. RT modalities included 3D-conformal RT (3D-CRT), intensity-modulated RT (IMRT), stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), proton RT, and carbon-ion RT (C12-RT). Response rates were analyzed according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. RESULTS: While the primary group consisted of 34 patients (f: 16; m:18), the re-RT group included 12 patients (f: 9; m: 3). Overall response rate (ORR) for the primary group was 38.3% (N = 11), with 32.4% (N = 11) complete remissions (CR) and 5.9% (N = 2) partial remissions (PR). Stable disease (SD) was confirmed in 5.9% (N = 2), while 41.2% (N = 14) experienced progressive disease (PD). 14% (N = 5) were lost to follow up. The re-RT group had 25.0% CR and 17.0% PR with 58.0% PD. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year progression-free survival rates were 100%, 96%, and 86%, respectively, in the primary group, and 81%, 14%, and 14%, respectively, in the re-RT group. Particle irradiation (N = 11) was associated with a lower likelihood of developing a recurrence in the primary setting than photon therapy (N = 18) (OR = 0.038; p = 0.002), as well as doses ≥ 60.0 Gy (N = 15) versus < 60.0 Gy (N = 14) (OR = 0.145; p = 0.027). Risk for tumor recurrence was higher for women than for men (OR = 8.07; p = 0.014) with men having a median PFS of 136.3 months, compared to women with 66.2 months. CONCLUSION: The data suggests RT as an effective treatment option for intracranial SFT, with high LPFS and PFS rates. Radiation doses ≥ 60 Gy could be associated with lower tumor recurrence. Particle therapy may be associated with a lower risk of recurrence in the primary setting, likely due to the feasibility of higher RT-dose application.

RESUMO

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a relatively rare mesenchymal fibroblastic tumor occurring most commonly in adults with no gender predilection. Although the pathological diagnosis of SFT is usually straightforward, some difficulties may occasionally arise mainly due to the wide morphological spectrum exhibited by this tumor. In the present paper we aimed to evaluate the unusual clinicopathological features in a series of 31 SFTs arising from parenchymal organs, superficial soft tissues and deep soft tissues. Our results emphasize that SFTs may occur anywhere, including unusual sites such as periosteum of the thoracic spine, mesorectal tissue, hepatic hilum, paravescial space, kidney and breast. Moreover, a wide morphological spectrum was observed in tumors included in our series. The most striking morphological features observed included: extensive lipomatous component, myxoid stromal changes, epithelioid cell component, metaplastic mature bone, neurofibroma-like, myxofibrosarcoma-like and pseudoalveolar-like areas. Additionally, multinucleated giant cells and sarcomatous dedifferentiation were also identified. Our paper emphasizes that SFT may occur in unusual anatomical locations and exhibits a wide morphological spectrum. Pathologists must be aware of these features to avoid confusion with other benign and malignant neoplasms that may show overlapping morphological features.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: As the form of World Health Organization Central Nervous System (WHO CNS) tumor classifications is updated, there is a lack of research on outcomes for intracranial combined solitary-fibrous tumor and hemangiopericytoma (SFT/HPC). This study aimed to explore conditional survival (CS) pattern and develop a survival prediction tool for intracranial SFT/HPC patients. METHODS: Data of intracranial SFT/HPC patients was gathered from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program of the National Cancer Institute. The patients were split into training and validation groups at a 7:3 ratio for our analysis. CS is defined as the likelihood of surviving for a specified period of time (y years), given that the patient has survived x years after initial diagnosis. Then, we used this definition of CS to analyze the intracranial SFT/HPC patients. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and best subset regression (BSR) were employed to identify predictive factors. The Multivariate Cox regression analysis was applied to establish a novel CS-based nomogram, and a risk stratification system was developed using this model. RESULTS: From the SEER database, 401 patients who were diagnosed with intracranial SFT/HPC between 2000 and 2019 were identified. Among them, 280 were included in the training group and 121 were included in the internal validation group for analysis. Our study revealed that in intracranial SFT/HPC, 5-year survival rates saw significant improvement ranging from 78% at initial diagnosis to rates of 83%, 87%, 90%, and 95% with each successive year after surviving for 1-4 years. The LASSO regression and BSR identified patient age, tumor behavior, surgery and radiotherapy as predictors of CS-based nomogram development. A risk stratification system was also successfully constructed to facilitate the identification of high-risk patients. CONCLUSION: The CS pattern of intracranial SFT/HPC patients was outlined, revealing a notable improvement in 5-year survival rates after an added period of survival. Our newly-established CS-based nomogram and risk stratification system can provide a real-time dynamic survival estimation and facilitate the identification of high-risk patients, allowing clinicians to better guide treatment decision for these patients.

RESUMO

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotype, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of SRF-rearranged cellular perivascular myoid tumor. Methods: Two cases of SRF-rearranged cellular perivascular myoid tumor diagnosed in the Department of Pathology, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from October 2021 to March 2022 were collected. Immunohistochemical staining, fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were performed, and the literature was reviewed. Results: Case 1, a 3-month-old boy presented with a painless tumor of the scalp, measuring about 2 cm in diameter. Case 2, a 3-year-old girl complained with a painless tumor of the knee, measuring approximately 1.5 cm in diameter. Microscopically, the tumor had a clear boundary and showed multinodular growth. The tumor was mainly composed of spindle cells arranged in long intersecting fascicles associated with thin, slit-like or branching ectatic vessels, focally forming hemangiopericytoma-like appearance. The tumor cells were abundant, but there was no obvious atypia. Mitotic figures (3-4/10 HPF) were noted. H-caldesmon and SMA were positive in both cases. Case 1 showed diffuse and strong positivity for Desmin, and focally for CKpan. Ki-67 proliferation index was 20% and 30%, respectively. FISH displayed NCOA2 gene translocation in case 1 and the RELA gene translocation in case 2. NGS detected the SRF-NCOA2 gene fusion in case 1 and the SRF-RELA gene fusion in case 2. Both patients underwent local excisions. During the follow-up of 5-14 months, case 1 had no local recurrence, while case 2 developed local recurrence 1 year post operatively. Conclusions: SRF-rearranged cellular perivascular myoid tumor is a novel variant of perivascular cell tumor, which tends to occur in children and adolescents. The tumor forms a broad morphologic spectrum ranging from a pericytic pattern to a myoid pattern, and include hybrid tumors with a mixture of pericytic and myoid patterns. Due to its diffuse hypercellularity and increased mitotic figures and smooth muscle-like immunophenotype, the tumor is easy to be misdiagnosed as myogenic sarcomas. The tumor usually pursues a benign clinical course and rare cases may locally recur.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The authors aimed to explore the clinical outcomes and risk factors related to recurrence of and survival from solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) and hemangiopericytomas (HPCs) that were reclassified according to the 2021 WHO classification of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. METHODS: The authors retrospectively collected and analyzed the clinical and pathological data of SFTs and HPCs recorded from January 2007 to December 2021. Two neuropathologists reassessed pathological slides and regraded specimens on the basis of the 2021 WHO classification. The prognostic factors related to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were statistically assessed with univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. RESULTS: A total of 146 patients (74 men and 72 women, mean ± SD [range] age 46.1 ± 14.3 [3-78] years) were reviewed, and 86, 35, and 25 patients were reclassified as having grade 1, 2, and 3 SFTs on the basis of the 2021 WHO classification, respectively. The median PFS and OS of the patients with WHO grade 1 SFT were 105 months and 199 months after initial diagnosis; for patients with WHO grade 2 SFT, 77 months and 145 months; and for patients with WHO grade 3 SFT, 44 months and 112 months, respectively. Of the entire cohort, 61 patients experienced local recurrence and 31 died, of whom 27 (87.1%) died of SFT and relevant complications. Ten patients had extracranial metastasis. In multivariate Cox regression analysis, subtotal resection (STR) (HR 4.648, 95% CI 2.601-8.304, p < 0.001), tumor located in the parasagittal or parafalx region (HR 2.105, 95% CI 1.099-4.033, p = 0.025), tumor in the vertebrae (HR 3.352, 95% CI 1.228-9.148, p = 0.018), WHO grade 2 SFT (HR 2.579, 95% CI 1.343-4.953, p = 0.004), and WHO grade 3 SFT (HR 5.814, 95% CI 2.887-11.712, p < 0.001) were significantly associated with shortened PFS, whereas STR (HR 3.217, 95% CI 1.435-7.210, p = 0.005) and WHO grade 3 SFT (HR 3.433, 95% CI 1.324-8.901, p = 0.011) were significantly associated with shortened OS. In univariate analyses, patients who received adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) after STR had longer PFS than patients who did not receive RT. CONCLUSIONS: The 2021 WHO classification of CNS tumors better predicted malignancy with different pathological grades, and in particular WHO grade 3 SFT had worse prognosis. Gross-total resection (GTR) can significantly prolong PFS and OS and should serve as the most important treatment method. Adjuvant RT was helpful for patients who underwent STR but not for patients who underwent GTR.

RESUMO

Solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms composed of spindle cells, most often occurring in the pleura. SFTs arising from the prostate are exceptionally rare, with only around 40 cases reported in literature to date. We report a man in his 60s who was referred to our clinic for elevated prostate-specific antigen and presented with mild obstructive lower urinary tract and defecatory symptoms. Prostate needle-core biopsy revealed neoplastic spindle cells that strongly expressed CD34. Cross-sectional imaging demonstrated a 12 cm locally advanced heterogeneous prostate mass with intravesical extension and mass effect on the anterior rectum. Radical cystoprostatectomy with orthotopic neobladder reconstruction was performed, and the diagnosis of primary prostatic SFT was made based on histological characteristics and immunophenotyping. We present diagnostic, clinical management and prognostic considerations in patients with primary prostatic SFT.

RESUMO

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are mesenchymal neoplasms with variable clinical behavior depending on age, tumor site, and size, and pathologic factors such as mitoses and necrosis. Imaging features on computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are not specific, and the diagnosis relies on histopathology with immunohistochemistry. SFTs arising from seminal vesicles is rare and reported in only eight earlier cases. We discuss the clinical, histopathologic and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging characteristics of a 54-year-old patient with SFT of the seminal vesicle. The patient was treated with robot-assisted seminal vesiculotomy and is doing well on follow-up at two years.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To report long-term outcomes after surgery for orbital solitary fibrous tumors. METHODS: Retrospective review of patients with orbital solitary fibrous tumor, first seen between 1971 and 2022. Primary excisions were grouped as (A) surgically intact, (B) macroscopic, but with cell spillage, or (C) known incomplete excision. RESULTS: Fifty-nine patients (31 female; 53%) presented at a mean age of 43.0 years (19-82 years), with 5 patients (8.5%) having malignant solitary fibrous tumors. Average follow up was 11.4 years (median 7.8; range 1-43 years). There were 28 of 59 (47%) group A patients with 1 of 28 (3%) having recurrence, 20 of 59 (34%) group B having 6 of 20 (30%) recurrences, and 11 of 59 (19%) group C with 9 of 11 (82%) recurrence ( p < 0.001 for recurrence rate). At a mean of 8.9 (range 1-23.6) years after initial treatment, continued local tumor growth was evident in 16 (27%) patients, with higher-grade recurrence in 3 of 14 (21%) cases. No patient had systemic disease at presentation, but 2 of 59 patients (3%) developed metastases at 22 and 30 years after first treatment. The 10-year progression-free survival was 94% (group A), 60% (group B), and 36% (group C). Tumor disruption or incomplete excision (groups B + C) carries the highest risk of tumor recurrence (hazard ratio 15.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.98-114; p = 0.009), with no correlation to tumor size or histology. CONCLUSIONS: Orbital solitary fibrous tumors have a low recurrence rate with surgically intact excision; piecemeal excision, capsular disruption, or known incomplete resection have a high recurrence rate, which can occur decades later. Baseline postoperative scans is recommended, together with long-term clinical and interval imaging.

RESUMO

A 12-year-old Japanese male presented with a 2-month history of headache that was later on associated with diplopia, painless proptosis of the OS, and left ophthalmoplegia. Initial examination revealed a 7-mm OS protrusion, which worsened to 9 mm in less than a month. Preoperative visual acuity worsened from 1.0 to 0.2 with the development of left afferent pupillary defect. Left ocular motility was severely restricted in all directions. Magnetic resonance imaging showed two well-defined lesions adjacent to one another in the left orbit. The patient underwent surgical excision of the left orbital masses. Histopathology findings were consistent with solitary fibrous tumor of the orbit. Immunohistochemistry findings revealed CD34-negative but signal transducer and activator of transcription 6-positive for both specimens. The patient was monitored postoperatively and there was no recurrence of the tumor even after 6 months.

RESUMO

Orbital primary solitary fibrous tumors (OPSFTs) are rare. To further characterize the clinical and pathological features of OPSFTs, 92 cases of OPSFT were analyzed to develop a risk prediction model. OPSFTs were equally distributed between males (n = 45) and females (n = 47) with a mean patient age of 40.8 years (median 39 years; range 5-70 years) at initial diagnosis. The mean tumor size was 2.79 cm (median 2.5 cm). Microscopically, the tumor cells were irregularly arranged in spindle, ovoid, or round shapes with varying amounts of collagen and branching blood vessels. Immunohistochemical staining showed positive STAT6 nuclear expression in all cases, loss of CD34 expression in seven cases, and a mean Ki-67 label index of 5.25% (range 1%-30%). All patients were initially surgically resected and had a median follow-up of 99 months: 33 patients recurred, 6 of whom presented with multiple recurrences and 1 with distant metastases. A predictive model for the risk of recurrence based on tumor size, mitosis, Ki-67 label index, and dominant constituent cell (DCC) was developed based on our results. In conclusion, OPSFTs are rare but can be reliably diagnosed based on characteristic morphological features and STAT6 immunohistochemistry. The rate of local recurrence of orbital tumors tends to be higher than the rate of distant metastases, which can be predicted by a risk stratification model specific to orbital tumors. Long-term clinical follow-up is recommended as advanced disease is common.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Head and neck solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare neoplasms, with few large-scale studies describing this entity. We evaluated the demographics and correlates of survival in a large series of SFT patients. METHODS: The 2004-2017 National Cancer Database was queried for head and neck SFT patients receiving definitive surgery. Cox proportional-hazards and Kaplan-Meier analyses assessed overall survival (OS). RESULTS: Of 135 patients, sinonasal (33.1%) and orbital (25.9%) SFTs were most common. Approximately 93% of SFTs were invasive and 64% were classified as hemangiopericytomas. The 5-year OS of skull base SFTs (84.5%) was lower than sinonasal (98.7%) and orbital (90.7%) SFTs (all p < 0.05). Government insurance exhibited higher mortality (HR 5.116; p < 0.001) and lower OS (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: Head and neck SFTs presented with distinct prognoses based on anatomical origin. Overall survival was particularly worse in patients with skull base SFTs or government insurance. Prognostically, hemangiopericytomas were indistinct from other SFTs.

RESUMO

AIMS: To evaluate presenting features of patients with orbital solitary fibrous tumours (SFTs), based on histological phenotype. METHODS: A retrospective case-note review was performed for demographics and presenting features for patients with orbital SFTs. The tumours were classified as "Group IA" hypocellular SFT phenotype, "Group IB" haemangiopericytoma phenotype and low mitotic activity, and high-grade "Group II" haemangiopericytoma phenotype with high mitotic activity. RESULTS: Sixty-four patients (34 female; 53%) presented at a mean age of 42.2 years (median 38; range 19-82), with Group II patients presenting at an older age (mean 53 years). Median symptom duration was 12 months for Groups IA and IB, compared to 4 months for Group II, the commonest symptoms being proptosis (53%), diplopia (41%), periorbital swelling (31%), and altered vision (19%). Mean LogMAR was 0.17 (median 0.0; range -0.2-4), and 14% had ipsilateral optic neuropathy, with no significant difference between the three groups. Non-axial displacement was noted in 69%, a palpable mass in 45%, and reduced eye movements in 59%; choroidal folds and optic disc swelling were recorded in 12% and 9%. SFTs were mostly extraconal (59%), within the superior and superonasal quadrants (44%), with an average estimated tumour volume of 4.9 ml (median 3.6; range 0.31-14.5 ml). CONCLUSION: SFTs may present with impaired visual function (∼15%), fundal abnormalities (a fifth), globe displacement (two-thirds), and reduced ocular motility (over a half). High-grade tumours tend to present more than a decade later, with a shorter duration of symptoms.

RESUMO

Uterine hemangiopericytoma is extremely rare. This article describes a case of uterine hemangiopericytoma. The tumor involved the parauterine vein; extended into the inferior vena cava, right cardiac cavity, and pulmonary artery; and metastasized to the lungs. It was irregular in shape and exhibited the string-of-beads sign on echocardiography, and it was tightly attached to the right ventricular surface and pulmonary artery wall. The patient underwent tumor resection without adjuvant treatment. A pelvic nodule was found 3 months postoperatively and was considered a recurrent lesion.

RESUMO

Intracranial meningeal solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) originating from mesenchymal tissue are much less common than those with lesions of the visceral pleura or liver and were isolated as a nosological form only in 1996. These tumors are identical in clinical manifestations, MRI and light microscopy data to meningiomas. The pathognomonic difference of SFT, according to the 5th edition of the WHO classification, is the detection of overexpression of the protein encoded by the STAT6 gene. Estimation of other immunohistochemical markers is variable. At the same time, SFT has a tendency to more frequent recurrence and delayed malignancy. Transitional forms are possible. To form a clearer nosological outline of the SFT, it is necessary to accumulate clinical observations. A case of a giant meningioma of the posterior cranial fossa, which recurred 18 years after total removal at a 5-year annual control, is presented. Light microscopy of both primary and recurrent tumors revealed fibrous meningioma (WHO GI). Immunohistochemically revealed diffuse overexpression of CD34 and CD99. Determining the expression of the STAT6 protein was not technically possible. This case is regarded as a meningioma of the posterior surface of the pyramid of the temporal bone, growing into the cavity of the IV ventricle, with late recurrence without malignancy, with specific immunohistochemical profile.

RESUMO

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare type of mesenchymal lesion with variable clinical presentation in which specific clinicopathologic factors have been related to patient outcome. SFT shares an important morphologic and immunohistochemical overlap with other sarcomas, hence the differential diagnosis is challenging. Although molecular studies provide significant clues, especially in the differential diagnosis with other neoplasms, a thorough hematoxylin and eosin analysis and the integration of phenotypical, clinical, and radiological features remain an essential tool in SFT diagnosis. In this review, we discuss some emerging issues still under debate in SFT.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: We present the case of a 60-year-old man who was being evaluated for 2 intra-abdominal masses. The masses were tracer avid on 68 Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT and were suggestive of neuroendocrine tumor. Histopathology, however, confirmed the masses to be hemangiopericytoma. Hemangiopericytoma comes under the umbrella of solitary fibrous tumors, a rare tumor group arising from the mesenchymal cells. Solitary fibrous tumors commonly arise from the pleura but can occur anywhere in the body. Intra-abdominal hemangiopericytoma are extremely rare and should be kept in mind as one of the differential diagnoses for 68 Ga-DOTA peptide-avid tumors.

RESUMO

Objective: To review the research progress of intraspinal solitary fibrous tumor (SFT). Methods: The domestic and foreign researches on intraspinal SFT were extensively reviewed and analyzed from four aspects, including disease origin, pathological and radiological characteristics, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, and treatment and prognosis. Results: SFT is an interstitial fibroblastic tumor with a low probability of occurrence in the central nervous system, especially in the spinal canal. In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) used the joint diagnostic term "SFT/hemangiopericytoma" according to the pathological characteristics of mesenchymal fibroblasts, which can be divided into three levels according to specific characteristics. The diagnosis process of intraspinal SFT is complex and tedious. It has relatively variable imaging manifestations and specific pathological changes of NAB2-STAT6 fusion gene, which often requires differential diagnosis with neurinoma, meningioma, etc. The treatment of SFT is mainly resection, which can be assisted by radiotherapy to improve the prognosis. Conclusion: Intraspinal SFT is a rare disease. Surgery is still the main treatment. It is recommended to combine preoperative or postoperative radiotherapy. The efficacy of chemotherapy is still unclear. In the future, more studies are expected to establish a systematic diagnosis and treatment strategy for intraspinal SFT.
