Few cases of extra renal AML have been documented in various organs including the female genital tract, where the uterus is the most common site. To the best of our knowledge, only 4 cases of AML in the cervix have been reported in the literature. Association of AML with tuberous sclerosis is well known. Presently AML is included in the spectrum of disease entities called PEComa. We report a case of AML without tuberous sclerosis arising from the uterine cervix, which has to be differentiated from lipoleiomyoma.

    S3.02 The histological type and subtype of the tumour must be documented wherever possible. CS3.02a Accepting the limitations of sampling and with the use of diagnostic common sense, tumour type should be assigned according to the WHO system 17, wherever possible. (See Appendix 4 for full list). CS3.02b If precise tumour typing is not possible, generic descriptions to describe the tumour may be useful (eg myxoid, pleomorphic, spindle cell, round cell etc), together with the growth pattern (eg fascicular, sheet-like, storiform etc). (See G3.01). CS3.02c If the reporting pathologist is unfamiliar or lacks confidence with the myriad possible diagnoses, then at this point a decision to send the case away without delay for an expert opinion would be the most sensible option. Referral to the pathologist at the nearest Regional Sarcoma Service would be appropriate in the first instance. Further International Pathology Review may then be obtained by the treating Regional Sarcoma Multidisciplinary Team if required. Adequate review will require submission of full clinical and imaging information as well as histological sections and paraffin block material.

Along this neoplasm spectrum, the differential diagnosis with CD34-positive proliferations can be challenging, particularly concerning neoplasms of fibrohistiocytic and fibroblastic lineages. In children, cutaneous and superficial soft-tissue neoplasms with CD34-positive spindle cells are associated with benign to intermediate malignancy potential and include lipofibromatosis, plaque-like CD34-positive dermal fibroma, fibroblastic connective tissue nevus, and congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. Molecular biology has been valuable in showing dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and infantile fibrosarcoma that are characterized by COL1A1-PDGFB and ETV6-NTRK3 rearrangements respectively. We report a case of congenital CD34- positive dermohypodermal spindle-cell neoplasm occurring in a female infant and harboring a novel KHDRBS1-NTRK3 fusion. This tumor could belong to a new subgroup of pediatric cutaneous spindle-cell neoplasms, be an atypical presentation of a plaque-like CD34-positive dermal fibroma, of a fibroblastic connective tissue nevus, or represent a dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans with an alternative gene rearrangement.

    DOI: 10.2478/v10163-012-0008-6 ACTA CHIRURGICA LATVIENSIS • 2011 (11) ORIGINAL ARTICLE Morphological and Immunohistochemical Characteristics of Surgically Removed Paediatric Renal Tumours in Latvia (1997–2010) Ivanda Franckeviča*,**, Regīna Kleina*, Ivars Melderis** *Riga Stradins University, Riga, Latvia **Children’s Clinical University Hospital, Riga, Latvia Summary Introduction. Paediatric renal tumours represent 7% of all childhood malignancies. The variable appearances of the tumours and their rarity make them especially challenging group of lesions for the paediatric pathologist. In Latvia diagnostics and treatment of childhood malignancies is concentrated in Children’s Clinical University Hospital. Microscopic evaluation of them is realised in Pathology office of this hospital. Aim of the study is to analyze morphologic spectrum of children kidney tumours in Latvia and to characterise them from modern positions with wide range of immunohistochemical markers using morphological material of Pathology bureau of Children’s Clinical University Hospital. Materials and methods. We have analyzed surgically removed primary renal tumours in Children Clinical University Hospital from the year 1997 till 2010. Samples were fixed in 10% formalin fluid, imbedded in paraffin and haematoxylin-eosin stained slides were re-examined. Immunohistochemical re-investigation was made in 65.91% of cases. For differential diagnostic purposes were used antibodies for the detection of bcl-2, CD34, EMA, actin, desmin, vimentin, CKAE1/AE3, CK7, Ki67, LCA, WT1, CD99, NSE, chromogranin, synaptophyzin, S100, myoglobin, miogenin, MyoD1 (DakoCytomation) and INI1 protein (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). Results. During the revised period there were diagnosed 44 renal tumours. Accordingly of morphological examination data neoplasms were divided: 1) nephroblastoma – 75%, 2) clear cell sarcoma – 2.27%, 3) rhabdoid tumour – 4.55%, 4) angiomyolipoma – 4.55%, 5) embrional rhabdomyosarcoma – 2.27%, 6) mesoblastic nephroma – 4.55%, 7) multicystic nephroma – 4.55%, 8) angiosarcoma – 2.27%.

A total of 1132 intermediate and malignant and 175 benign mesenchymal lesions were enrolled in this study. Immunohistochemical staining was performed on tissue microarrays using a monoclonal antibody for NY-ESO-1. Among mesenchymal tumors, myxoid liposarcomas showed the highest positivity for NY-ESO-1 (88%), followed by synovial sarcomas (49%), myxofibrosarcomas (35%), and conventional chondrosarcomas (28%). Positivity of NY-ESO-1 in the remaining mesenchymal tumors was consistently low, and no immunoreactivity was observed in benign mesenchymal lesions.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Mesoblastic nephroma is a relatively rare infantile renal tumor. It comprises 3–6% of pediatric renal masses. It comprises of three histological types namely classic, cellular and mixed variants. Cellular variant accounts for 60% cases and is associated with poor prognosis with survival rate of 85% compared to 100% for classic variant. It remains a diagnostic challenge for pathologists due to its similarity to other more frequent kidney neoplasms. Here we report 3 cases of cellular mesoblastic nephroma which presented over a period of 4 years from January 2007 to December 2010.
