Uncommon tumors in the uterus present diagnostic challenges. In some cases, the tumor subtype is usually seen outside the gynecologic tract and the possibility of a uterine primary is not considered. In other cases, histologic overlap with more common uterine tumors leads to potential misdiagnosis. Finally, metastatic carcinoma may involve the uterus and cervix. Rarely, symptoms related to the uterine metastasis may precede diagnosis of an extrauterine primary. Without the proper clinical context, the possibility of a missed diagnosis is increased. One must first be aware of these possibilities, but immunoperoxidase studies are often necessary to confirm the diagnosis. In this review, unusual and metastatic tumors involving the uterine corpus and cervix and immunoperoxidase studies used to diagnosis such tumors are discussed. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the clinicopathological significance of podoplanin expression in the intratumoral stroma and neoplastic cells of early stage uterine cervical cancer.MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A total of 143 patients with clinical stage I and IIA uterine cervical carcinomas underwent surgery between 2000 and 2007. Clinicopathological data and slides associated with these cases were retrospectively reviewed. Immunodetection of podoplanin expression in histologic sections of tissue microarray blocks was performed using the monoclonal antibody D2‐40.RESULTS:
Expression of podoplanin was detected in neoplastic cells in 31/143 (21.6%) cases, with 29/31 (93.5%) of these cases diagnosed as squamous carcinoma. For all of the cases examined, the strongest signal for podoplanin expression was observed at the proliferating edge of the tumor nests. The rate of positive podoplanin expression for node‐positive cases was lower than that of node‐negative (18.9% vs. 22.6%, respectively). Furthermore, the rate of positive podoplanin expression in fatal cases was 10.5% vs. 21.6%, respectively. In 27/143 (18.8%) cases, podoplanin expression was detected in fibroblasts of the intratumoral stroma, and this expression did not correlate with patient age, clinical stage, tumor size, histologic type, depth of infiltration, or vascular involvement. Moreover, expression of podoplanin in intratumoral stroma fibroblasts was only negatively associated with nodal metastasis. A greater number of fatal cases was observed among negative intratumoral stroma fibroblasts (15.5% vs. 3.7%, respectively), although this difference was not significant.CONCLUSIONS:
These preliminary results suggest that podoplanin may have a role in host‐tumor interactions and, as a result, may represent a favorable prognostic factor for squamous cervical carcinomas. 相似文献3.

Rhabdoid tumors have been reported in many different anatomic sites as an aggressive tumor and usually present with a rhabdoid tumor component (a composite tumor) rather than a pure rhabdoid tumor. Rhabdoid tumor in the prostate has been described only once in the prostatic region as a possible epithelial origin. Rhabdoid features in prostatic stromal sarcomas (PSSs) have never been described in the literature. Here, we report a case of a PSS with rhabdoid features. A 31-year-old man presented with a 4-month history of voiding difficulty and anal pain. Computed tomography of the abdomen revealed an ovoid mass in the prostate invading rectum and urinary bladder. A needle biopsy was diagnosed as an unclassified spindle cell sarcoma, and 2 cycles of adriamycin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy were given, followed by radical prostatectomy. The prostatectomy specimen revealed a high-grade sarcoma with fascicles of highly cellular spindle cells and numerous mitoses with hemorrhage and necrosis. In areas, the tumor also contained sheets of loosely cohesive epithelioid cells with rhabdoid tumor component. Both spindle and rhabdoid tumor cells were positive for vimentin, CD34, and progesterone receptor and negative for desmin and cytokeratin immunostainings. The rhabdoid tumor cells retained INI1 expression. The tumor recurred in the bladder, and the patient died of sepsis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of PSS with rhabdoid features. The tumor showed an aggressive clinical behavior with a short-term survival (7 months after diagnosis). 相似文献

AIMS: Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a rare tumour occurring almost exclusively in young adult males. Although histologically benign, it can be locally aggressive with a significant recurrence rate. The finding of activating beta-catenin gene mutations in the stromal cells indicates these are the neoplastic cells and supports the association of JNA and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Previous immunohistochemical studies have demonstrated a null or focal myoepithelial immunophenotype in the stromal cells. Recently, expression of several growth factors and oncoproteins including CD117 (c-kit) in the stromal cells has been demonstrated. Our objective is to evaluate the immunohistochemical phenotype of the stromal cell of JNA, particularly within the proliferative zone of the tumour, by application of antibodies against MNF116, CAM5.2, S-100, CD31, CD34, CD99, CD68, vimentin, EMA, SMA, desmin, calponin, Bcl-2 and (CD117) c-kit in a series of 54 cases. METHODS: A routine immunohistochemical protocol was applied to representative paraffin sections of 54 JNAs collected from the Port Moresby General Hospital, Papua New Guinea, and Princess Alexandra and Royal Brisbane Hospitals, Queensland, Australia. Immunoexpression of each antigen was assessed in the stromal cells and the vessels. RESULTS: The majority of stromal cells in more than half of the cases demonstrated no staining with any of the 14 antibodies other than vimentin. Of 54 cases, 22 contained a microvascular component (usually peripherally located and indicating the active growth front of the tumour) in which the stromal cells demonstrated a hybrid immunophenotype with both smooth muscle and endothelial differentiation. c-kit was negative in all cases. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of stromal cells have an undifferentiated immunophenotype with no evidence of epithelial, myoid, endothelial or other lineage specific differentiation. In the microvascular component the stromal cells appear able to show smooth muscle or endothelial differentiation. No c-kit expression was identified. 相似文献

Aims:
This study documents the frequency of multinucleated stromal giant cells within the interstitium of the testis and looks for possible aetiological reasons for this occurrence.
Materials and methods:
We examined sections of testes from 150 unselected autopsy cases finding stromal giant cells in 43%. An aetiological association between the occurrence of multinucleated stromal giant cells in this site and hormonal or other pathogenetic influences could not be established.
Conclusions:
In many instances, this occurrence appears to be an age related phenomenon. 相似文献

The endometrium contains a distinct population of immune cellsthat undergo cyclic changes during the menstrual cycle and implantation.The majority of these leucocytes are uterine NK (uNK) cells,however how these cells interact with uterine stromal fibroblastsremains unclear. We therefore investigated the paracrine effectof medium conditioned by uterine decidual leucocytes (whichare enriched for uNK cells) on the gene expression profile ofendometrial stromal fibroblasts in vitro using a cDNA microarray.Our results, verified by real-time PCR, ELISA and FACS analysis,reveal that soluble factors from uterine leucocytes substantiallyalter endometrial stromal fibroblast gene expression. The largestgroup of up-regulated genes found was chemokines and cytokines.These include IL-8, CCL8 and CXCL1, which have also been shownto be stimulated by contact of stromal fibroblasts with trophoblast,suggesting that uNK cells work synergistically to support trophoblastmigration during implantation. The decidual leucocytes alsoup-regulated IL-15 and IL-15R in stromal fibroblasts which couldproduce a niche for uNK cells allowing proliferation withinand recruitment into the uterus, as seen in bone marrow. Overallthis study demonstrates, for the first time, the paracrine communicationbetween uterine leucocytes and uterine stromal fibroblasts,and adds to the understanding of how the uterine immune systemcontributes to the changes seen within the cycling endometrium. 相似文献

Uterine carcinosarcomas (UCSs), formerly known as malignant mixed müllerian tumors, are uncommon neoplasias that account for <5% of uterine malignancies. Traditionally, UCSs have been considered a subtype of sarcoma and the staging system and adjuvant oncological treatments used have been similar to those used for high-grade uterine sarcomas. However, there is now enough clinical, pathologic, and biological evidence to consider UCSs more closely related to high-grade endometrial carcinomas. Thus, these tumors should be staged based on the surgicopathologic staging system used for endometrial carcinomas. Morphologically, UCSs are heterogeneous biphasic tumors composed of an admixture of malignant (endometrioid and nonendometrioid) epithelial and (homologous and heterologous) mesenchymal elements in different proportions. UCSs predominantly metastasize as carcinomas and they are associated with a poor prognosis. Although stage is a consistent prognostic factor, the significance of several histopathological features, such as myometrial invasion, lymphovascular space involvement, type of carcinomatous component, extent of the sarcomatous component, and the presence of heterologous elements, remains controversial and probably differs among different stages. Although the diagnosis of UCS is not difficult in most cases, the differential diagnosis may include entities such as undifferentiated or dedifferentiated carcinoma, endometrioid adenocarcinoma with spindle cell elements, sarcomatous overgrowth in a low-grade müllerian adenosarcoma, and pure malignant mesenchymal tumors. Genetic and molecular studies have confirmed the clonal origin of most UCSs and have shown these tumors to be similar to those observed in high-grade/nonendometrioid carcinomas, with p53 mutations being the most common molecular alteration. Finally, from a biological standpoint, the process by which epithelial malignant cells of UCS transdifferentiate to malignant mesenchymal cells could be considered a true example of epithelial mesenchymal transition in human neoplasias. 相似文献

Although the majority of diagnoses in gynecological pathology are established on the examination of routine hematoxylin- and eosin-stained sections, additional tests are occasionally required to render an accurate diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry is one such ancillary stain widely used to provide additional diagnostic information in problematic cases. 相似文献

Uterine carcinosarcoma (malignant mixed Mullerian tumor) is an uncommon female genital tract neoplasm characterized by an admixture of epithelial and stromal malignant cells. We report a case of 50-year-old peri-menopausal woman diagnosed to have early-stage (IB due to FIGO) uterine carcinosarcoma of the homologous type with superficial (3mm) myo-invasion. The patient showed no clinical symptoms of the disease and had no family history of female genital tract malignancies. Positive immunostaining for steroid receptors (estrogen-alpha and progesterone receptors), cytokeratin, and EGFR was detected only in the carcinomatous area, whereas beta-catenin, BCL-2, COX-2, p16(INK4a), PTEN, RB-1, and vimentin were immunoreactive in both components. Androgen receptor, CD10, desmin, HER-2/neu, and P53 were found to be negative either in the carcinomatous or in the sarcomatous area. Tumor proliferative activity was higher in the carcinomatous (25%) than in the sarcomatous (2%) component. Based on these findings, immunohistochemical evaluation of multiple receptor status in the carcinomatous and sarcomatous areas of carcinosarcoma may provide a clue to the pathogenesis and hormonal receptor status of this uncommon uterine malignancy. 相似文献

A few cases of uterine angiosarcoma have been detailed in the literature: 2 new cases are herein described featuring some unusual clinical or phenotypic differences compared with previously published cases, such as occurrence in premenopausal age or a poorly differentiated histology. The patients were 35 and 81 years old, and both presented with extrauterine spread and evidence of distant metastases. Grossly, they were fleshy, hemorrhagic, and necrotic. Microscopically, they were made up of poorly differentiated, epithelioid, or spindle cells. In one case, the neoplastic growth deceitfully recalled a poorly differentiated leiomyosarcoma showing focal rudimentary endothelial differentiation. The other index case was characterized by a more pronounced vascular pattern, the neoplasm was composed of spindle cells arranged in loose channels. A diffuse immunopositivity for CD31, CD34, and factor VIII–related antigen was detected. Tumor cells were negative for other tested antigens including keratins, desmin, actins, and H-caldesmon. One patient died shortly during the follow-up, whereas the other is alive with evidence of disseminated disease. Occurrence in childbearing age or a deviant histologic pattern, as documented in this report, may be added to the clinicopathologic spectrum of uterine angiosarcoma. 相似文献

Aspiration biopsy from metastatic tumors in two cases of endometrial stromal sarcoma and one case of endometrial adenosarcoma revealed malignant endometrial stromal cells with ill-defined cytoplasm and round or oval hyperchromatic nuclei showing irregular chromatin clumping and conspicuous nucleoli. They were seen mainly in clusters. Aspirate from a metastatic tumor of a mixed mesodermal tumor arising from the omentum showed similar malignant endometrial stroma cells, irregular tight clusters of malignant glandular cells having scanty but well-defined cytoplasm and vesicular nuclei with conspicuous nucleoli, and fragments of atypical smooth muscle tissue. The diagnostic malignant endometrial stromal cells in those reported cases did not display any distinctive cellular features permitting their cytologic identification. They were difficult to differentiate from those of other types of sarcoma. In a clinical setting, with a known primary endometrial stromal sarcoma or mixed mesodermal tumor, however, a cytodiagnosis of its metastases may be suggested when malignant endometrial stromal-cell-like cells are seen in aspirated material, oviating an open-tissue biopsy. 相似文献

A 52-year-old woman was admitted with a painful right breast tumor measuring more than 20 cm in largest diameter, which ulcerated the overlying skin. The lesion had appeared 4 years previously but the patient hesitated to seek medical care due to 'fear of cancer'. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of spindle cells that formed cuffs around multiple open tubules and ducts set in an abundant, myxoid stroma. The spindle cells had significant atypia with nuclear pleomorphism, occasional cytoplasmic vacuolation and moderate mitotic activity. The ducts and lobules surrounded by the proliferating tumor cells had minimal distortion, with a pericanalicular growth pattern devoid of the phyllodes pattern. The tumor had a multinodular growth pattern with coalesced and individual tumor nodules, the latter being found mostly at the periphery of the lesion. On immunohistochemistry the tumor cells were positive for smooth muscle actin, CD34, and vimentin, and focally positive for CD10. A diagnosis of low-grade periductal stromal sarcoma (PDSS) with myxoid features was established. PDSS is a distinct low-grade breast sarcoma, the appropriate diagnosis of which requires extensive tumor sampling and additional broad immunohistochemistry. PDSS should not be confused with other spindle cell breast tumors because they require different treatment. 相似文献

A case of endometrial stromal sarcoma of the uterus with rhabdoid features, occurring in a 57 year old woman is reported. Electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry revealed that the rhabdoid cells contained intermediate filaments which were positive for vimentin, cytokeratin, alpha-smooth muscle actin, and muscle specific actin, but not for myoglobin and desmin. This indicated that the tumor in this case differed somewhat from the three rhabdoid tumors and an endometrial stromal sarcoma with rhabdoid differentiation previously reported and that, therefore, these tumors were heterogeneous. 相似文献
