Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour, mixed connective tissue type, abbreviated PMTMCT, is a rare tumour.

General

  • Extremely rare.
  • Hypophosphatemia.[1]
  • Most common cause of oncogenic osteomalacia (tumour-induced osteomalacia).[2]

Gross

  • Soft tissue or bone.[3]
  • Often small - thus hard to identify.[4]

Microscopic

Features:[2][5]

  • Spindle cells without atypia in an eosinophilic matrix.
  • Osteoclast-type giant cells.
  • +/-Calcifications.

IHC

  • Vimentin +ve.[5]
