Myopericytoma, also glomangiopericytoma, is a rare perivascular soft tissue tumour.
General
- Usually benign.
- Typically in the distal extremities.[1]
- Used to be classified as hemangiopericytoma (AKA solitary fibrous tumour).
Microscopic
- Fasicular pattern - may be subtle - with:
- Compressed blood vessels, often thin walled & branching.
- Increased peri-vascular cellularity.
- Cellular lesion:
- Small bland unequally spaced epithelioid/spindle cells.
- Moderate eosinophilic cytoplasm.
Notes:
- Features overlap with myofibroma.[4]
DDx:
