Myopericytoma
Diagnosis in short

Myopericytoma. H&E stain.

LM fascicular pattern (may be subtle) with compressed blood vessels (often thin walled & branching), increased peri-vascular cellularity; high cellularity; small bland unequally spaced epithelioid/spindle cells with moderate eosinophilic cytoplasm
LM DDx solitary fibrous tumour, vascular tumours
IHC SMA +ve, H-caldesmon +ve, CD34 +ve (focal), EMA -ve, AE1/AE3 -ve
Site soft tissue

Prevalence uncommon
Prognosis benign

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

Features:[2][3]

  • Fascicular 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.
