LM spindle cells with moderate eosinophilic cytoplasm and indistinct cellular borders, no significant nuclear atypia
LM DDx leiomyoma, fibroma of the tunics, fibromatosis, solitary fibrous tumour, inflammatory pseudotumour
IHC CD34 +ve/-ve, S-100 -ve, desmin -ve, keratins -ve

Fibrous pseudotumour of the paratesticular region is a very rare tumour of the paratesticular region.[1]

General

  • May be associated with the epididymis or tunica vaginalis of the testis.[2]
    • Uncommonly associated with the epididymis (<10% of tumours[3]).

Microscopic

Features:[2]

  • Spindle cells with:
    • Moderate eosinophilic cytoplasm.
    • Indistinct cellular borders.

DDx:[2]

Images

  • PFP - very low mag.

  • PFP - low mag.

  • PFP - intermed. mag.

  • PFP - intermed. mag.

  • PFP - high mag.

IHC

Features:[4]

  • CD34 +ve/-ve.
  • S-100 -ve.
  • Desmin -ve.
  • Keratin -ve.
