Tumoral calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease (TCPPD, tumoral or tophaceous pseudogout) is a rare nonneoplastic entity which mimics soft-tissue or skeletal malignancy. We present here the fine-needle aspiration cytology findings of a unique case of TCPPD in a 76-yr-old woman, with a large paraischial soft-tissue mass diagnosed as a malignant neoplasm. The difficulty in diagnosing such lesions by fine-needle aspirates is discussed and reviewed in the context of known cases from the literature.
肿瘤性焦磷酸钙二水合物沉积病（TCPPD，肿瘤性或痛风石性假痛风）是一种罕见的非肿瘤性疾病，可模仿软组织或骨骼恶性肿瘤。我们在此呈现一名76岁女性的独特TCPPD病例的细针穿刺细胞学检查结果，该患者有一个被诊断为恶性肿瘤的巨大腮腺旁软组织肿块。结合文献中的已知病例，讨论并回顾了通过细针穿刺诊断此类病变的困难。
