| Core Tip |
Mammary-type myofibroblastoma (MTMF) is a rare extra-mammary soft tissue tumor with myofibroblast differentiation. Since 2001, more than 160 cases have been reported in the literature. Almost all reports have identified MTMF as a benign tumor except for three cases of recurrence. Here, we report a case of MTMF, which mimicked some malignant features, such as infarction, atypical mitosis, infiltrative growth, and cytologic atypia. Although infiltrative growth and cytological atypia have been reported in previous cases, there are no reports of infarction and atypical mitosis in MTMF, and this is the first report that these pseudo-malignant features appear simultaneously in the same case. Taken together, these characteristics pose a diagnostic pitfall that must be avoided. The purpose of this report is to alert pathologists if they encounter a tumor with these pseudo-malignant features and myofibroblastic differentiation, they must not forget that they need to rule out the diagnosis of MTMF first. |
