Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour
Diagnosis in short

MPNST. H&E stain.

LM spindle cell lesion (or very rarely epithelioid lesion) with nuclear atypia, mitotic activity, +/-herring bone pattern
Subtypes malignant triton tumour
LM DDx synovial sarcoma, fibrosarcoma, cellular schwannoma, plexiform schwannoma
Site soft tissue

Associated Dx neurofibroma, plexiform neurofibroma
Syndromes neurofibromatosis type 1

Signs mass
Prognosis poor

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumour, abbreviated MPNST, is an uncommon malignant tumour of the nerve sheath.

It is also known neurofibrosarcoma[1] and neurogenic sarcoma.[2]

General

Microscopic

Features:[3]

  • Cellular - usu. spindle cells.
    • Very rarely epithelioid.[4]
  • Nuclear atypia.
  • Mitoses.
  • +/-Herring bone pattern.
  • Perivascular hypercellularity
  • Tumor herniation into vascular lumens

Notes:

  • May be diagnosed in a poorly diff. tumour if patient has NF1.

DDx:

Grading

  • Can be graded histologically,[5] and this is prognostic.[6]

Sarcoma grading system[7] - based on:

  • Tumour differentiation.
  • Mitotic rate.
  • Necrosis.

IHC

Features:[8]

  • S-100 +ve ~ 30% of tumours.
  • SOX10 +ve ~ 50% of tumours.
  • Neurofibromin (NFC) -ve (88% in NF1, 43% sporadic MPNST)[9]
  • MIB-1 ≥20% is highly predictive of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (87% sensitivity and 96% specificity).[10]


Others:[5]

  • p53.
  • p16 -ve.
  • p27.
  • p75NTR +ve (80%).

Molecular

Features:[11]

  • Atypical neurofibromas and low-grade MPNST have a common methylation profile and frequent losses of CDKN2A.
  • A subset of MPNST show loss of trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3).
