|
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP)
|
|
- Usually forms a mass
- Non circumscribed, highly cellular, tight storiform pattern (cells radiating in spokes at right angles around a central point that often contains a vessel) deeply infiltrating into subcutaneous tissue and entraping fat cells leading to characteristic honeycomb pattern
- Areas of fascicular growth (some tumors)
- Distinct storiform pattern may be absent in early plaque stage
- Monomorphic, thin and spindly cells with scant eosinophilic cytoplasm and hyperchromatic nuclei (resembling neurofibroma)
- Numerous mitotic figures (not atypical ones)
- Non-polarizable and thin collagen
- Only mild pleomorphism and focal atypia
- May coexist with giant cell fibroblastoma
- Usually no significant pleomorphism, no / rare histiocytes, no histiocyte-like cells, no foam cells, no giant cells or other inflammatory cells
- Variants: Atrophic (depressed lesion), collagenous (with central thick collagen bundles), granular cell, myxoid, palisading, pigmented, and sclerosing
