Abstract

Pleomorphic hyalinizing angiectatic tumor (PHAT) is a rare, low grade soft tissue neoplasm of an unknown histogenesis. It is characterized by sheets of mitotically inactive oval and pleomorphic cells, mono- and multi-nucleated giant cells, intranuclear cytoplasmic inclusions and prominent clusters of thin-walled ectatic vessels with perivascular hyalinization. We have experienced a 50 years old male patient who had a palpable mass in his right anterior lower chest wall. The mass was excised and it was confirmed as PHAT. He has been well 2 years postoperatively without recurrence.

다형성 초자화 혈관 확장 종양은 경미한 악성종양의 특성을 가지며 주로 하지의 표재성 연조직에 발생하는 매우 회귀한 종양으로 알려져 있다. 조직학적으로 확장된 혈관 주위에 비 활동성 유사분열의 판(sheet)과 다발(fascicle)로 이루어지면서, 혈철소(hemosiderin)가 점점이 박혀 있는 방추형의 다형성 세포로 이루어진 종양세포로 구성되며, 유사분열이 거의 없는 것이 그 특징적 소견으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 우측 전 흉부의 종괴 촉지를 주소로 내원한 50세 남자환자에서 상기 질환을 치험하였기에 문헌 고찰과 더불어 보고하는 바이다.
