Myxoinflammatory Fibroblastic Sarcoma: Review and Update.

Myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma is a rare soft tissue tumor with most occurring in the distal extremities of adult patients. It has a high rate of local recurrence and a low rate of metastasis. Because it may appear benign on clinical examination, and because the microscopic features are generally underrecognized, it is often inadequately treated and misdiagnosed. In this review, based upon experience and that of the literature, the intent is to highlight salient clinicopathologic features, detail the broad microscopic spectrum including high-grade aggressive variants, review the molecular features, and discuss its relation to hemosiderotic fibrolipomatous tumor.
