A 'collision' tumor refers to the existence of two different neoplasms within the same tumor. Sometimes, the term 'biphasic tumor' is also used. However, a 'collision' tumor is defined as the occurrence of two neoplasms within proximity of each other yet maintaining distinctly defined, separate boundaries. In contrast, a 'biphasic' tumor demonstrates two or more phenotypically distinct neoplastic cell populations merging within the same space. Here, we report a case of collision tumor associated with sarcomatoid eccrine porocarcinoma and basal cell carcinoma arising in a 57-year-old male patient.
“碰撞”瘤是指同一肿瘤内存在两种不同的肿瘤。有时也使用“双相肿瘤”这一术语。然而,“碰撞”瘤的定义是两种肿瘤彼此相邻出现,但保持明显界定的、分开的边界。相比之下,“双相”瘤表现为两个或更多个表型不同的肿瘤细胞群体在同一空间内融合。在此,我们报告一例发生在一名57岁男性患者身上的与肉瘤样小汗腺导管癌和基底细胞癌相关的碰撞瘤病例。
