RESUMEN
Introducción. El sarcoma histiocítco (SH) es una neoplasia poco frecuente con características morfológicas e inmunohistoquímicas de diferenciación histiocítica. Material y métodos. Presentamos 6 casos de SH. Se estudiaron cortes con hematoxilina y eosina y con inmunohistoquímica para CD45, CD163, CD68, lisozima, CD21, EMA, CD1a, S-100, CD20, Ki-67, HMB45 y CK AE1-3. Resultados. Cuatro pacientes fueron hombres y dos mujeres (edad promedio, 25,7 años; rango, 8 meses-64 años). Dos tumores se originaron en ganglios linfáticos, y los demás fueron extraganglionares (glándula parótida, meninges, tejidos blandos de tibia derecha y yeyuno). Los tumores estaban compuestos por células epitelioides medianas a grandes, pleomórficas, con abundante citoplasma eosinófilo, núcleos irregulares y nucléolos prominentes con áreas fusiformes focales y citofagocitosis. Las mitosis variaron con una media de 10 por campo de ×40. Un tumor presentó infiltrado inflamatorio prominente. Todos los tumores fueron positivos a CD45, CD163 y CD68 (KP1 y PGM-1), y 5 expresaron lisozima. Dos tumores fueron focal y débilmente positivos para S-100 y uno para CD1a; todos fueron negativos al CD 20, CD21, HMB45 y a CKAE1-3. Discusión. Para el diagnóstico de SH debe utilizarse CD45 además de dos antígenos asociados a macrófagos y ausencia de marcadores B, T, de melanoma y citoqueratinas(AU)
ABSTRACT
Introduction. Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a rare malignant neoplasm showing the morphologic and immunohistochemical features of histiocytic differentiation. Material and methods. We present 6 cases of HS diagnosed in 4 female and 2 male patients with ages ranging from 8 months to 64 years (medium age of 25.7 years). Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and immunohistochemistry was performed using CD45, CD163, CD68, lysozyme, CD21, EMA, CD1a, S-100, CD20, Ki-67, HMB45 and CK AE1-3. Results. Two tumours arose from lymph nodes and 4 were extranodal (parotid gland, meninges, soft tissues and jejunum); all were composed of sheaths of medium to large pleomorphic epithelioid cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm, irregular nuclei and prominent nucleoli with focal spindle cell features and cytophagocytosis. Mitotic features varied from case to case with a medium of 10 per 10 HPF. All tumours were positive for CD45, CD163 and CD68 (KP1 and PGM-1), 5 expressed lysozyme, 2 showed weak focal positivity for S-100 and 1 for CD1a. All were negative for CD 20, CD21, HMB45 and CK AE1-3. Discussion. It is important that the diagnosis of HS be based on immunohistochemical markers that should include CD45 plus two specific macrophage-associated antigens and the lack of the B-cell, T-cell, as well as cytokeratins and melanoma markers(AU)
