OBJECTIVE
To perform a review of soft tissue tumors in palaeopathology.
METHODS
Examination of palaeopathological literature.
RESULTS
Up to now, observations of neoplastic soft tissue lesions in mummified remains are limited to 15 cases, and only 4 of them present malignancies; 14 cases of calcified benign tumors, including 13 neoplasms of the female reproductive system and 1 teratoma, are also documented.
CONCLUSIONS
The main reasons for the rarity of soft tissue tumors in palaeopathology, especially of malignancies, are apparently the short life span of past populations, the scarcity of mummified remains available in comparison with skeletal remains, and technical difficulties in the detection of neoplastic lesions in mummified tissues.
目的
对古病理学中的软组织肿瘤进行综述。
方法
对古病理学文献进行检查。
结果
迄今为止，对木乃伊化遗体中肿瘤性软组织病变的观察仅限于 15 例，其中只有 4 例为恶性肿瘤；也有 14 例钙化良性肿瘤的记载，包括 13 例女性生殖系统肿瘤和 1 例畸胎瘤。
结论
软组织肿瘤，尤其是恶性肿瘤在古病理学中罕见的主要原因显然是过去人群的寿命较短，与骨骼遗骸相比，可用的木乃伊化遗骸稀缺，以及在木乃伊化组织中检测肿瘤性病变的技术困难。
