Intravascular myopericytoma (IVMP), regarded as a variant of myopericytoma, is a rare tumor. Very few cases have been described, none in the foot.The first case of IVMP located in the heel of the foot is described in this article. A literature review is reported of all cases of IVMP published in the English literature.A 48-year-old man possessed an IVMP on the heel of the right foot. The physical examination and histopathological and ultrasound studies are described. The literature review yielded 5 cases of IVMP, 2 of which were in the thigh and 1 each in the oral mucosa, the periorbital region, and the leg.The possibility that these lesions may be malignant suggests that the histopathological study of vascular tumors should include immunohistochemical tests.
血管内肌周细胞瘤(IVMP)被视为肌周细胞瘤的一种变体,是一种罕见肿瘤。仅有极少数病例被描述过,足部尚无相关病例报道。本文描述了首例位于足跟部的IVMP病例。报告了对英文文献中发表的所有IVMP病例的文献综述。一名48岁男性在右脚足跟部患有IVMP。描述了体格检查、组织病理学和超声检查情况。文献综述得出5例IVMP病例,其中2例位于大腿,1例分别位于口腔黏膜、眶周区域和小腿。这些病变可能为恶性的可能性提示,血管肿瘤的组织病理学研究应包括免疫组化检测。
