Several soft tissue tumors are characterized by fibrous stroma with a conspicuous vascular component including cellular angiofibroma, nasopharyngeal angiofibroma, and solitary fibrous tumor. Recently, a distinctive fibroblastic tumor composed of bland spindle cells and a complex vascular network has been characterized morphologically and shown to harbor a recurrent t(5;8) translocation with AHRR-NCOA2 gene fusion. We report our recent experience with 2 examples of this benign tumor, the diagnosis for one of which was supported by fluorescence in situ hybridization for NCOA2 rearrangement. Identification of this tumor is important to prevent misdiagnosis as a low-grade sarcoma.
几种软组织肿瘤的特征是纤维基质伴有明显的血管成分,包括细胞血管纤维瘤、鼻咽血管纤维瘤和孤立性纤维瘤。最近,一种由温和梭形细胞和复杂血管网络组成的独特纤维母细胞瘤已在形态学上进行了描述,并显示存在反复的 t(5;8)易位,伴有 AHRR-NCOA2 基因融合。我们报告了最近的 2 例这种良性肿瘤的经验,其中一例的诊断得到了 NCOA2 重排的荧光原位杂交的支持。识别这种肿瘤对于防止误诊为低级别肉瘤很重要。
