Pathologie und Histologie von Weichteilsarkomen der oberen Extremität: Erwachsene

Zusammenfassung

Fragestellung/Ziel: Klinikopathologische Charakterisierung und Darstellung histologischer Befunde von sechs häufiger auftretenden Weichgewebssarkomen der oberen Extremität im Erwachsenenalter.

Ergebnisse/Schlussfolgerung: Bezüglich der Pathologie und Histologie werden vorgestellt: das epitheloide Sarkom, das Synovialsarkom, das Klarzellensarkom, das Liposarkom, das Fibrosarkom und das maligne fibröse Histiozytom (MFH). Alle diese Sarkome weisen im klassischen Fall ein typisches klinisches Umfeld und kennzeichnende histologische Merkmale auf.

Abstract

Purpose/Background: Clinicopathologic characterization and demonstration of histologic findings in six common soft tissue sarcomas of the upper extremity in adult patients.

Results/Conclusion: Clinicopathologic findings and histologic features of the following malignant soft tissue tumours are compiled: epithelioid sarcoma, synovial sarcoma, clear cell sarcoma, liposarcoma, fibrosarcoma, and malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). All these tumours show typical clinical presentations and characteristic histological findings.
