| Popis: | This study reports a case of superficial CD34-positive fibroblastic tumor (SCPFT) in a child and analyze the major known clinicopathological features of SCPFT and other skin mesenchymal tumors, contributing to an accurate diagnosis of this rare disease. We summarize the clinicopathologic features of an 8-year-old girl who was diagnosed with SCPFT and 46 previously reported SCPFT cases. Post-operative histopathologic examination of the current case showed the tumor lesion was well-circumscribed; tumor cells were spindled-to-polygonal with a fascicular pattern; most nuclei displayed hyperchromasia and low mitotic rate; intranuclear pseudoinclusions could be found; and abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and partial myxoid stroma were observed. Immunohistochemistry revealed strong and diffuse CD34-positivity, vimentin staining positively but no S-100, SMA, NSE, CD31, desmin, cytokeratin, STAT6, β-catenin, MDM2, or ERG expression. The Ki-67 and CD68 labeling indexes were approximately 1%. There were no rearrangements of PDGFB or PRDM10 tested by FISH. After surgical resection, the patient had no signs of recurrence or metastasis at a 6-month follow-up. The present case is the first that describes SCPFT in children and has significant clinical implications. SCPFT should be differentiated from other skin mesenchymal tumors. The presented compilation of all so far published SCPFT cases will help in diagnosing successfully SCPFT and increasing awareness of this tumor to guide clinical practice. |
