But still our medical schools are working and they have brought the clinical rotation for which we had always as a medical student being excited about right in front of our mobile/laptop screens. The general medicine faculty have been doing great and also are helping us to acquire knowledge and helped us learn to use the Internet and motivate us to read research papers and old cases about a topic. This has been a great learning session for all of us , looking forward to attend the clinical postings in the hospital.

Benign vs intermediate vs malignant tumors

Benign soft-tissue tumors usually do not recur locally, and if they do, the recurrence is nondestructive and almost always readily curable by complete local excision. Morphologically benign lesions, which are extremely rare, may give rise to distant metastases, which cannot be predicted on the basis of routine, contemporary histologic evaluation. This is best documented in rare, cutaneous benign fibrous histiocytoma.

Intermediate (locally aggressive) soft-tissue tumors show an infiltrative and locally destructive growth pattern. However, although they may recur locally, they do not metastasize. They usually require excision with a wide margin of normal tissue for better local control. The example in this category is desmoid (fibromatosis).

Intermediate (rarely metastasizing) soft-tissue tumors are often locally aggressive, but in some cases, they also have a tendency to produce distant metastases (usually in a lymph node or lung). This risk is low (< 2%), but histomorphologically, it is not reproducibly predictable. The classic examples in this group are plexiform fibrohistiocytic tumor and angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma.

Malignant soft-tissue sarcomas are locally destructive with the potential to recur. The risk of distant metastasis is significant. (Depending on histologic type and grade, the potential ranges from 20% to almost 100%). Histologically low-grade sarcomas have a lower chance of metastasis (only 2-10%).However, the recurrences of such tumors may advance in grade and attain a higher risk of metastatic potential similar to that associated with myxofibrosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma.

TOPIC-2

ETIOPATHOGENESIS OF SOFT TISSUE TUMORS

Most sarcomas are sporadic and have no known predisposing cause.

A small minority are associated with germline mutations in tumor suppressor genes.

Others are linked to environmental exposures such as radiation, burns, or toxins.

Etiology of soft tissue tumours remains largely unknown.

1. Frequently there is history of antecedent trauma which may bring the tumour to attention of the patient.

2. Molecular and cytogenetic studies in many soft tissue tumours reveal chromosomal abnormalities and mutations in genes which can be used as a marker for diagnosis and histogenesis e.g. translocations, various fusion genes etc.

3. Most of the soft tissue tumours occur sporadically;however, there are a few examples which are components of syndromes e.g. neurofibromatosis type 1, Li-Fraumeni syndrome, Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome etc.

The genetics of tumorogenesis are heterogenous, but some generilizations can be made based on karyotypic complexity:

SIMPLE KARYOTYPE(20%): Like many luekemias and lymphomas, sarcomas are occasionally euploid tumors with a single or limited number of chromosomal changes that ocuur early in tumorigenesis and are specific enough to serve as diagnostic markers. Commonly arise in younger individuals.

COMPLEX KARYOTYPE(80%):These tumors are usually aneuploid or polyploid and demonstrate multiple chromosomal gains and losses, a feature that suggests an underlying abnormality producing genomic abnormality.Such tumors are common in adults.
