Histiocytic sarcoma mimicking localized tenosynovial giant cell tumor in the pediatric foot: A rare case report with MRI Findings

초록

We present a rare case of histiocytic sarcoma (HS) occurring in the foot of a 12-year-old male, initially misdiagnosed as localized tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TSGCT). HS is an exceptionally uncommon hematologic malignant neoplasm, with its occurrence in children and extranodal sites being even rarer. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of extranodal HS in the foot, emphasizing comprehensive MRI findings. Initially, the patient was diagnosed with TSGCT based on histological results following surgical resection. However, after recurrence and subsequent surgical resection, histological and immunochemical analyses led to a revised diagnosis of HS. This report focuses on the MRI findings of HS, highlighting the distinctions from localized TSGCT. While both conditions share histopathological similarities, immunohistochemical tests are crucial for accurate diagnosis. The report underscores the importance of differentiating HS for appropriate treatment. © 2023
