Chondroid lipoma is a rare, benign variant of lipomatous tumor that can mimic soft tissue sarcomas. |
The grade, size and depth of the sarcomas are the important factors to prognosticate the disease. |
Sebaceous cysts, fibromas, papillomas, adenomas, sarcomas, carcinomas, and melanomas also have been reported. |
The second group called sarcomas, arise from the substance of solid tissues such as muscle, bone, lymph glands, blood vessels and fibrous and other connective tissues. |
These patients are also at risk for second cancers, including bone, brain, leukemia and lymphoma, melanomas, and soft tissue sarcomas. |
Keratin expression is typical of epithelial differentiation in carcinomas and some sarcomas. |
