RESUMO
Hepatic angiomyolipoma (HAML) is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor with varying amounts of mature adipose tissue, smooth muscle cells, and thick-walled blood vessels. We present a rare case of hepatic angiomyolipoma (AML) with predominant lipomatous components. A 42-year-old female presented to the hospital with pain in the right lumbar region. On imaging, there was a large fat-predominant mass attached to the surface of the liver extending down to the lumbar region. On small biopsy, it was reported as a well-differentiated adipocytic neoplasm, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies performed for MDM2 were negative. On excision, histopathological examination showed predominantly fat components, but there were few epithelioid cells between adipocytes and thick-walled blood vessels. These cells were positive for Melan-A, HMB45, and smooth muscle actin (SMA) and negative for hepatocyte paraffin-1 (Hep Par1). Angiomyolipoma is a benign tumor and has a good prognosis with surgical excision. Few cases are associated with tuberous sclerosis.
RESUMO
Invasive micropapillary carcinoma and Solid papillary carcinomas are rare histologic subtypes of breast cancer. Co-existence of tumors of the breast like invasive ductal and lobular carcinomas, or invasive ductal carcinoma and mucinous carcinomas have been reported before. But the existence of invasive micropapillary carcinoma with solid papillary carcinoma is a rare occurrence. Here, we are reporting a rare case of a 60-year-old female with a mass in her left breast. The histopathology report showed a tumor containing these two histologic subtypes. Recognition of all tumor subtypes is necessary, as this can impact the treatment strategy.
