PG - 99-104 LID - 10.3760/cma.j.issn.0529-5807.2018.02.004 [doi] AB - Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics, immunophenotype, differential and diagnostic features of atypical spindle cell lipomatous tumor (ASLT). Methods: Three cases of ASLT were collected from January 2010 to March 2017 at Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital. The clinical and imaging features, histomorphology, immunophenotype and prognosis were analyzed. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to detect MDM2 gene amplification, and relevant literature was reviewed. Results: All three patients were adult males, aged 38, 43 and 54 years, respectively. One tumor originated in the subcutaneous soft tissue in the head and neck, one was located in the left primary bronchus and one in the latissimus dorsi muscle. Grossly, all three tumors were circumscribed and ranged from 4.0 to 5.8 cm in size. Microscopically, all showed a focally infiltrative front. These tumors were composed of variable proportions of spindle-shaped and adipocytic cells in a background of variable fibrous and edematous matrix. Scattered lipoblasts were easily seen. One tumor was composed predominately of spindle tumor cells, one of adipocytic cells, and one of equally mixed cell populations. The spindle tumor cells were generally bland-appearing with focal nuclear enlargement and hyperchromasia noted in one case. Mitosis was not seen in neither the spindle cells nor the adipocytic cells. By immunohistochemistry, diffuse and strong reactivity to CD34 of the spindle cells was noted in all cases, definite loss of Rb expression was noted in one of three cases, and S-100 protein was expressed only in the adipocytic cells. INI-1 was intact and Ki-67 index was 1% to 3%. All other markers including CDK4, MDM2, STAT6, SOX10, CD99, bcl-2, beta-catenin, CD117, GFAP, CK, EMA, SMA and desmin were negative. FISH of MDM2 was done in two cases, and both showed no amplification. The ASLT in the head and neck had two recurrences during 17 months of follow-up, whereas the tumor in the latissimus dorsi was free of disease during 33 months of follow-up. Conclusions: ASLT is a rare subtype of low-grade adipocytic neoplasm and is distinctive from atypical lipomatous tumor/well-differentiated liposarcoma. The histomorpholgy of ASLT has significant heterogeneity and forms a continuous spectrum. ASLT needs to be distinguished from a series of benign and malignant soft tissue tumors.
