Pleomorphic lipoma is a rare adipocytic tumour.
General
Gross
- Classically shoulder and neck region in adults.[3]
DDx - shoulder lesions:
Microscopic
Features:
- Multinucleated cells - "floret cells" - key feature.
- Solid eosinophilic cytoplasm.
- Peripheral nuclei - impart a knobby border to the cells.
- Fibrous septa.
Notes:
- May overlap with spindle cell lipoma.[4]
- Floret cell - may look similar to Touton giant cells.
DDx:
- Liposarcoma.[5]
- Ancient neurofibroma.
- Ancient schwannoma.
IHC
- AR +ve - ~95% in men, ~85% in women.[2]
- CD34 +ve (26 +ve of 26 cases[6]).
- Desmin -ve (0 +ve of 20 cases[6]).
- ER -ve/+ve (5 +ve of 21 cases[6]).
