滤泡树突样细胞肉瘤
滤泡树突样细胞肉瘤(FDCs)罕见,Monda等1986年描述其特征:通常是无痛性、惰性肿块,中位年龄50岁(范围17-76岁),无性别差异。累及腹部可有疼痛,但通常无全身症状。可在透明血管型Castleman病基础上发生,或两病同时发生。通常累及淋巴结,以颈、腋和纵隔淋巴结为主。结外部位包括口腔、脾、肝、小肠、胰、腹膜、软组织和皮肤。发生在脾和肝者与EB病毒有关。
典型者呈局限性生长,偶有远处转移至肝或肺。Fletcher等的文献回顾中,与复发、转移和致死的因素似乎包括:肿瘤体积大(≥6cm)、位于腹腔内和凝固性坏死。
除非想到此肿瘤并检测FDC标记(CD21和CD35),否则很可能误诊。主要的临床/病理鉴别诊断为GIST,尤其是位于腹腔内者。GIST和FDCs有相似的组织学特征,包括:束状排列的梭形细胞,常常出现上皮样细胞,偶尔S-100阳性。然而GIST总是c-kit(CD117)阳性且CD34通常阳性。
其它鉴别诊断包括:
fibroblastic reticulum cell sarcoma
纤维母细胞网状细胞肉瘤(vimentin+, SMA+, desmin+, CD21-, CD35-)
interdigitating dendritic cell tumor
(并)指状树突状细胞,或译作“交错树突状细胞肿瘤”(S100+, vimentin+, CD21-, CD35-)
黑色素瘤;
其他肉瘤。

Diagnosis:
Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma
Discussion
Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma is a rare neoplasm, characterized by Monda et al in 1986 7. It usually occurs as a painless, indolent mass. The median age of patients is in their fifth decade, with an age range of 17-76 years 5, and no gender preference. Patients with abdominal involvement may present with pain, but there are usually no constitutional symptoms. It may be associated with Castleman’s disease-hyaline vascular type 5, either preceding the sarcoma, or growing separately. It usually involves lymph nodes 3, predominantly cervical, axillary or mediastinal. Extranodal sites include oral cavity, spleen, liver, small intestine, pancreas, peritoneum, soft tissue, and skin. Splenic and hepatic tumors are associated with Epstein Barr virus 1, 6.
These tumors typically recur locally, with occasional distant metastases to liver or lung. In a review by Fletcher et al., it appeared that large tumor size (6 cm or more), intraabdominal location and coagulative necrosis were associated with a higher rate of recurrence, metastasis, and mortality 2.
These tumors are likely to be misdiagnosed unless one thinks of them and tests for follicular dendritic cell markers (CD21 and CD35). The main clinical and pathologic differential diagnosis, particularly within the abdomen, is a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). GIST and follicular dendritic cell sarcomas share some histologic features, including the fascicular arrangement of spindle cells, the frequent presence of epithelioid cells 4, and occasional S-100 reactivity. However, GISTs are uniformly c-kit positive and usually CD34 positive.
The differential diagnosis also includes fibroblastic reticulum cell sarcoma (vimentin+, smooth muscle actin+, desmin+, CD21-, CD35-), interdigitating dendritic cell tumor (S100+, vimentin+, CD21-, CD35-), melanoma or other sarcomas.
