Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and pathological diagnosis methods of calcifying fibrous tumor (CFT) of the stomach.Methods:The clinicopathological data of 9 patients with gastric CFT in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from August 2015 to May 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, immunohistochemistry was used to detect the immunophenotypic characteristics of gastric CFT, and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results:Among 9 patients with gastric CFT, 1 case was male and 8 cases were female, with a median age of 53 years old (18-63 years old). There were 7 cases occurred in the body of the stomach, while 2 cases in the fundus. All cases were single solid nodule with the cut surface gray-white or gray-red in colour and hard and tough in texture. Maximum diameter of tumor ranged from 0.6 cm to 1.5 cm. Observation under the microscope showed the spindle-shaped tumor cells were sparsely distributed in a large amount of collagenized stroma with scattered lymphocytes and plasma cells infiltration. Calcification or gravel formation was detected in all cases. The tumor cells in 9 cases expressed Vimentin, 3 cases expressed CD34, none of them expressed PDGFRA, SMA, SMMS-1, Desmin, ALK, DOG-1, CD117, S-100, β-catenin, CKpan and calponin; Ki-67 positive index was 1%-3%.Conclusions:Gastric CFT is more common in middle-aged and elderly people, which is characterized by gastric body with smaller volume. The diagnosis of gastric CFT mainly depends on pathological morphology and immunohistochemical examination. It needs to be differentiated from a variety of spindle cell tumors more commonly found in the stomach.
