ABSTRACT

Se describe el caso clínico de un paciente de 61 años de edad, con antecedente de buena salud, atendido en el St. Paul's Milennium Medical Hospital de Etiopía por presentar, desde hacía 2 años, una lesión en la encía marginal, con abombamiento de ambas corticales, que se extendía del primer premolar inferior derecho al izquierdo, por lo cual se decidió ingresarlo en el Servicio de Cirugía Maxilofacial para su estudio y tratamiento. Se trataba de un tumor poco frecuente y de gran tamaño, con amplia diseminación ganglionar hacia los niveles IV y V de ambas partes del cuello, de manera que se realizó el procedimiento quirúrgico. La evolución fue favorable en el posoperatorio inmediato y egresó de la institución 7 días después, pero continuó con radioterapia. Y seguimiento por consulta externa durante 24 meses después.


The clinical case of a 61-year-old patient, with a history of good health, treated at St. Paul's Milennium Medical Hospital in Ethiopia for presenting, for 2 years, a lesion in the marginal gum, with bulging of the gums, is described. both cortices, which extended from the lower right to the left first premolar, for which it was decided to admit him to the Maxillofacial Surgery Service for study and treatment. It was a rare and large tumor, with extensive lymph node dissemination to levels IV and V in both parts of the neck, so the surgical procedure was performed. The evolution was favorable in the immediate postoperative period and he was discharged from the institution 7 days later, but continued with radiotherapy. And follow-up by outpatient service for 24 months afterwards.

ABSTRACT

Los sarcomas de partes blandas son tumores malignos que se originan en el tejido conectivo, a partir del mesénquima embrionario. Teniendo en cuenta la existencia de nuevos y constantes cambios en la naturaleza de estos tumores, se realizó una revisión de las publicaciones más recientes para profundizar en las alteraciones genéticas, los síndromes de predisposición y su relación con los sarcomas. Se pudo concluir que aún siguen siendo muy pocos los registros que describen la identificación de dichos síndromes como principal eslabón en el desarrollo de los sarcomas.


The sarcomas of soft parts are malignancies that originate in the connective tissue, starting from the embryonic mesenchyme. Taking into account the existence of new and constant changes in the nature of these tumors, a review of the most recent publications was carried out to deepen in the genetic disorders, the predisposing syndromes and its relationship with sarcomas. It was concluded that the records that describe the identification of these syndromes are still very few as main link in the development of sarcomas.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To describe the cytopathological features of clear cell sarcomas (CCSs), including immunohistochemical and molecular results, the latter in selected cases. METHODS: Sixteen consecutively diagnosed cases of CCS of soft tissue, over 6-year duration were included. Fine needle aspiration cytology was performed for primary diagnosis in three and for recurrent/metastatic lesions in 12 cases. Cytopathological features in 16 cases (conventional Papanicolaou- and May-Grünwald Giemsa-stained smears) were critically analysed. Corresponding histopathological and immunostained sections were available in 15 cases. Two cases were tested for EWSR1 gene rearrangement by fluorescence in-situ hybridisation. RESULTS: Sixteen tumours occurred in patients with age ranging from 18 to 56 years (median = 33.5); M: F ratio = 1:1; in deep soft tissues, mostly in extremities. Primary cytopathological diagnosis (3 cases) was CCS with a differential diagnosis of melanoma (1 case) and poorly differentiated malignant tumour (2 cases). On review, smears were predominantly hypercellular (n = 14), invariably composed of monomorphic appearing epithelioid/polygonal cells (n = 16), including spindle cells (n = 6); mostly singly scattered (n = 16), in loose clusters (n = 12); with prominent nucleolisation (n = 16); granular to vacuolated, well-defined cytoplasm (n = 12), binucleation/multinucleation (n = 9); mitoses (n = 6); sudden anisonucleosis; racquet-shaped cells (n = 3), against a tigroid background (n = 2), along with focal intracytoplasmic pigment deposition (n = 2). Immunohistochemically, tumour cells were positive for S-100P (15/15), HMB-45 (15/15) and melan-A(6/12). Two cases tested for EWSR1 rearrangement displayed red-green split signals. CONCLUSIONS: This constitutes one of the largest series describing the cytomorphological spectrum of CCS of soft tissue. Certain features, such as singly scattered monomorphic, epithelioid cells with prominent nucleolisation are useful diagnostic clues. Immunohistochemical stains are necessary and molecular testing is further helpful in reinforcing a diagnosis in certain cases. A correct diagnosis has crucial treatment implications.

ABSTRACT

Esse relato apresenta o caso de uma paciente com quarta recidiva de sinoviosarcoma, um sarcoma de partes moles que possui estreita relação com bainhas tendinosas, bursas e cápsulas articulares. A paciente apresentou uma quarta recidiva, sendo necessária a realização da amputação de perna, visto que as cirurgias conservadoras já não aliviam o sofrimento da paciente. O principal objetivo deste relato de caso é apresentar um caso clássico de neoplasia rara, expondo a doença e fazer uma breve revisão da literatura e mostrar sua importância, visto que corresponde a apenas 5% das neoplasias de partes moles.


This report presents the case of a female patient with fourth synoviosarcoma recurrence, a sarcoma of soft parts that have close relationship with tendom sheaths, bursas and articular capsule.The patient present her fourth recurrence, in wich the perfomance of amputation was required, since the conservative surgeriesno longer relieved the patient suffering. The main objective of this case report is to present a classic case of a rare cancer, exposing the disease, and to make a brief review of the literature to show its importance, since it corresponds to only five percent of the cancers of soft parts.
