Bilateral multiple spindle cell lipomas of the tongue

Background: Primary renal sarcomas are rare neoplasm that accounts about 1% of malignant renal tumors. Prevelance of primary renal Synovial cell sarcoma is rare and comprise 1-3% of all malignant renal neoplasm. Synovial cell sarcoma overlaps with multiple spindle cell neoplasms affecting the kidney, this need immunohistochemical panel to can diagnose it. This paper reports a case of Renal Synovial cell sarcoma. We report a case of 32 year old female presented with presented by upper pole left kidney swelling. Computarized tomography (CT) revealed a heterogeneous, well marginated soft tissue mass 8x7 cm arising in the upper pole of left kidney with solid necrotic components and heterogeneous enhancement. Left radical nephrectomy was done. Methods: The kidney was excised and gross examination revealed that upper pole of the kidney was replaced completely by grayish tan firm mass with cystic areas measuring 6x6x3 cm in diameter and shows areas of hemorrhage and necrosis. Microscopic evaluation and immunohistochemistry study were performed. Results: The mass was Renal Synovial cell sarcoma. Conclusion: Although Renal Synovial cell sarcoma is rarely diagnosed in kidney but it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of spindle cell tumors affecting the kidney and must be excluded by immunohistochemical studies as it has poor prognosis in the kidney

Degree Of Differentiation

With the extensive industrial use of asbestos in this century and the long latent period (20-50 years) between exposure and tumor presentation, the incidence of malignant mesothelioma is now increasing. Thus, surgical pathologists are more frequently faced with the dilemma of differentiating mesothelioma from metastatic adenocarcinoma and spindle-cell sarcoma involving serosal surfaces. Electron microscopy is amodality useful in clarifying this problem.In utilizing ultrastructural features in the diagnosis of mesothelioma, it is essential to appreciate that the classification of this tumor reflects a variety of morphologic forms of differing biologic behavior (Table 1). Furthermore, with the variable histology and degree of differentiation in mesotheliomas it might be expected that the ultrastructure of such tumors also reflects a range of cytological features. Such is the case.
