ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Atypical spindle cell lipomatous tumor (ASPLT), a separate entity for the group of benign/low grade adipocytic neoplasm that is characterized by adipocyte adequacy and the presence of lipoblast-like cells and spindle cells at varying degrees. Case presentation Here, we report a rare case of 60 years old male with atypical spindle cell lipomatous tumor in the anterior abdominal wall.Discussion:
Histopathology is the gold standard for establishing the diagnosis and grade of soft tissue tumor and consistent radiology-pathology correlation is essential to avoid any diagnostic pitfalls [1]. Ultrasound is preferred as an initial investigation for superficially located lesions.Conclusion:
ASPLT show a wide variety of microscopic features, and differential diagnosis is important and difficult. Recognition of morphologic clues and immunohistochemistry/molecular tests to confirm the diagnosis.
