Clinical and pathological characteristics of giant cell angioblastoma: a case report

Abstract: Giant cell angioblastoma (GCAB) is an extremely rare soft tissue tumor of early childhood and only five cases have been described to date. As such the clinical, pathological, and prognostic features are poorly defined. We prensent here a new case of GCAB in bone of a child aged 4-years old. The lesion was composed of dense and loose cell regions. The dense regions were characterized by nodular, linear, and plexiform aggregates of oval- to spindle-shaped tumor cells around small vascular channels and interspers… Show more

“…Differential diagnosis should include plexiform neurofibroma, plexiform schwannoma, cellular neurothekeoma, fibrous hamartoma of infancy, deep benign fibrous histiocytoma, benign and malignant soft tissue giant cell tumor, nodular fasciitis, giant cell angioblastoma, and myofibromatosis. In addition to histological examination, clinical findings and immunohistochemical studies are of great help in diagnosis . We considered intraosseous fibrous histiocytoma, intraosseous plexiform neurofibroma, intraosseous plexiform schwannoma, intraosseous giant cell angioblastoma, and intraosseous cellular neurothekeoma in differential diagnosis in our patient.…”

“…Кожа над опухолью разной окраски: от белесого до светло-коричневого цвета, иногда с изъязвлениями. Было показано, что она может вовлекать не только мягкие ткани, но и костную ткань [6,7,9], что приводит к развитию болевого синдрома и может быть причиной инвалидизации пациентов.…”

“…Наиболее характерной гистологической особенностью данной опухоли является нодулярная, солидная и плексиформная пролиферация недифференцированных мезенхимальных клеток, фибробластов, миофибробластов и перицитов [1,5,7]. Строма опухоли с отеком, неравномерно выраженным фиброзом, отмечается мононуклеарная инфильтрация с примесью многочисленных гигантских многоядерных гистиоцитоподобных клеток.…”
