摘要

BACKGROUND: Low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma has been fully described histologically; however, the fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytologic findings are scantily defined, and the distinction from other benign and malignant soft tissue tumors can be difficult. CASE: We examined FNA cytologic material from a slowly growing, large chest wall mass in a 28-year-old woman. The surgical specimen was processed for routine histology and immunohistochemical studies. The cytologic smears were adequately cellular, showing spindly cells with uniform, elongated nuclei; small, inconspicuous nucleoli; and scanty, wispy cytoplasm associated with myxoid material. No significant nuclear pleomorphism or mitoses were noted. The excised tumor was well circumscribed, focally infiltrating the surrounding muscles. The cut surface was variable, featuring fibrous, solid, fleshy and myxoid areas. Microscopically, the solid, fibrous areas displayed increased cellularity with storiform, intersecting and parallel patterns. In the myxoid areas the cells grew in a haphazard fashion and appeared floating in abundant mucoid matrix associated with a capillary vascular network similar to the chicken-wire pattern seen in cases of myxoid liposarcoma. The tumor cells were spindly, with fusiform, uniform nuclei. Focal, moderate nuclear pleomorphism was noted. The mitotic index was low. The tumor cells were positive for vimentin, alpha-1-antitrypsin and lysozyme and negative for S-100, actin, desmin and CD34. CONCLUSION: Although low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma is a rare neoplasm, it should be recognized and distinguished from other soft tissue tumors because of its low malignant potential. The definitive FNA cytologic diagnosis can be challenging but is possible if the tumor is adequately sampled, with multiple passes from different areas. Clinical and radiologic correlations are of great help. All spindle cell tumors with myxoid changes, such as myxoid liposarcoma, myxofibrosarcoma, cellular myxoma, myxoid leiomyosarcoma and peripheral nerve sheath tumors, should be considered in the differential diagnosis. In contrast to the cytologic features, the histologic findings are characteristic and well established.
