ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Radiological imaging in Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) often shows the coexistence of fatty and non-fatty solid components; however, it has been shown that when fatty components were not identified on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the diagnosis of DDLPS would not have been diagnosed if immunohistochemical (IHC) staining had not been performed. The aim of this study was to investigate the pattern of MRI and relationship between MRI and IHC findings in DDLPS.METHODS:
We retrospectively reviewed the cases of 25 patients with DDLPS. To identify the MRI spectrum of DDLPS, tumors were classified into the following four categories based on MRIfindings:
I = a well-defined fatty mass and juxtaposed well-defined non-fatty mass, II = a non-fatty component within a predominantly fatty mass, III = a focal fatty component within a large non-fatty mass, and IV = a non-fatty mass with atypical MRI findings. IHC staining for CDK4, MDM2, and p16 were evaluated.RESULTS:
Category IV tumor was the most common tumor in this population. Of the 22 patients who underwent IHC staining, MDM2, CDK4, and p16 were positive in 21, 20, and 19 patients, respectively. MDM2 was positive in all 11 patients with category IV tumors; CDK4 and p 16 were positive in 10 and eight patients, respectively. There was no difference of survival between the patients with category I, II and III and category IV.CONCLUSIONS:
DDLPS without fatty components on MRI scans was mostly found. We recommend IHC staining to screen for DDLPS even if the tumors in STS cases have a non-fatty component.Palavras-chave
