Solitary fibrous tumor with pseudo-lipoblasts involving the sublingual gland: report of a case and review of the literature.
European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery 2007;264(1):93-8.
Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are mesenchymal neoplasms uncommonly occurring in the salivary glands. In rare instances, SFTs can contain mature fat, atrophic fat, or vacuolated cells previously termed 'pseudo-lipoblasts', which may be misinterpreted as a feature of malignancy. We report an unusual tumor with pseudo-lipoblasts occurring in the sublingual gland. The tumor exhibited a prominent hemangiopericytic pattern, bland cytology, and immunohistochemical and morphologic features consistent with that of an SFT. A review of 15 cases of SFTs of the salivary glands is presented. Emphasis is laid upon the histologic differential diagnosis and the clinical features of these tumors.
