An atypical case of atypical lipomatous tumor.
[pleomorphic liposarcoma]
A
56
-
year
-old
woman
was
referred
to
us
with
an
asymptomatic
nodule
on
the
thigh
.
The
nodule
was
about
11
x
7
cm
in
diameter
with
a
well-demarcated
,
smooth
,
surface
.
Magnetic
resonance
imaging
showed
the
intensity
of
the
nodule
to
be
entirely
monotonous
or
partially
heterogeneous
.
Histological
examination
revealed
a
proliferation
of
adipocytes
varying
considerably
in
size
and
including
many
mono-
or
multivacuolated
lipoblasts
.
Immunohistochemically
,
some
of
the
tumor
cells
were
positive
for
p
53
and
MDM
2
.
Histologically
,
the
atypical
lipomatous
tumor
,
lipoblastoma
,
spindle
cell
lipoma
,
pleomorphic
liposarcoma
,
and
hibernoma
comprised
the
list
of
possible
,
differential
diagnoses
.
We
considered
our
case
to
be
a
variant
of
atypical
lipomatous
tumor
,
although
it
did
not
correspond
to
any
of
the
4
atypical
lipomatous
tumor
subgroups
.
There
has
been
no
recurrence
to
date
.
