以下是引用城北在2008-8-4 21:48:00的发言: 总结一下镜下表现:总体为普通平滑肌瘤特征,部分区域间质黏液样。黏液样间质中有一些多形性细胞,部分细胞有明显的丰富的红染胞浆,少数细胞有空泡状胞浆,有多核,有的有明显核仁,核分裂相缺乏。部分区域散在分布有空泡状脂肪细胞样细胞。 |
Most of those cells in your photos are "mast cells". Mast cells is frequently seen in leiomyoma, both uterine or extra-uterine origin. When mast cell-rich, especially when mast cells are reactive looking, it can cause problem morphologically like what we are seen in this case. Interestingly, these mast cells dramatically reduced in uterine leiomyosarcoma. For Gastrointestinal and esophageal leiomyoma, please be ware of mast-cell-rich leiomyoma since it can be confused with gastrointestinal stromal tumor. Even more confused, these mast cells are often positive for CD117. Therefore, when you have a suspicious GIST, but your IHC profile is confusing you, such as CD117 +, SMA+, desmin +, but CD34 negative, you should make sure to exclude a mast cell-rich leiomyoma.

This is really a good tip |
