Plexiform fibromyxoma is a rare and newly described gastric mesenchymal tumor with only 121 reported cases in the literature. Our understanding of plexiform fibromyxoma requires updating since the first case has been reported by Takahashi et al. 12 years ago. The present review summarized reported cases in the literature, and both clinical and pathological aspects of plexiform fibromyxoma were comprehensively discussed. Plexiform fibromyxoma usually causes nonspecific or bleeding signs or symptoms, and therefore clinical recognition of the disease is challenging. Plexiform fibromyxoma is of benign nature without any metastasis or recurrence reported, and more conservative surgical treatment should be considered.
丛状纤维黏液瘤是一种罕见的、新描述的胃间叶性肿瘤,文献中仅报道了 121 例。自 Takahashi 等人 12 年前首次报道首例病例以来,我们对丛状纤维黏液瘤的认识需要更新。本综述总结了文献中的报道,并全面讨论了丛状纤维黏液瘤的临床和病理方面。丛状纤维黏液瘤通常导致非特异性或出血症状,因此临床识别该疾病具有挑战性。丛状纤维黏液瘤为良性,无转移或复发报道,应考虑更保守的手术治疗。
