Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is a rare neoplasm that occurs extranodally and nodally. The following case report describes a 24-year-old male patient who suffered from FDCS of the tonsil. He presented at the ENT Department of the University Hospital Magdeburg with throat pain that had lasted for 3 months. There were neither B symptoms nor abnormal fatigue. An extended tonsillectomy was performed. The morphological and immunohistochemical findings confirmed the diagnosis of FDCS. FDCS should be considered as an important differential diagnosis in spindle cell tumors of the tonsil.
滤泡性树突状细胞肉瘤(FDCS)是一种罕见的肿瘤,可发生于结外和结内。以下病例报告描述了一名患有扁桃体FDCS的24岁男性患者。他因持续3个月的咽痛就诊于马格德堡大学医院耳鼻喉科。既无B症状,也无异常疲劳。进行了扩大扁桃体切除术。形态学和免疫组化结果证实了FDCS的诊断。在扁桃体梭形细胞瘤中,FDCS应被视为重要的鉴别诊断。
