[Primary intraosseous hematopoietic pseudotumor: clinicopathological analysis and 9-year follow-up of 3 cases].

We analyzed the clinicopathological data of 3 cases of primary intraosseous hematopoietic pseudotumor (IHPT), which had been previously misdiagnosed as malignancies or metastases both clinically and pathologically. Two of the patients received close follow-up for 132 and 100 months, and one patient was lost to follow-up, and the tumors were confirmed to be benign in all the 3 cases. IHPT is a rare benign intraosseous solid lesion consisting of tissues resembling normal hematopoietic tissue, and can be easily misdiagnosed as malignancy. Understanding the clinicopathological features and the outcomes of the disease can facilitate the clinical decisions on individualized diagnosis and therapeutic regimens.
