Zusammenfassung

Wir berichten über einen Patienten, der sich mit einer unklaren malignen mesenchymalen Raumforderung der Anthelix in unserer Therapie befand. Das histologische Ergebnis zeigte ein myofibroblastisches Sarkom. Myofibroblastische Sarkome sind sehr seltene Tumoren, deren genaue Zuordnung im Rahmen proliferativer Erkrankungen schwierig ist. Differenzialdiagnostisch kommen sowohl benigne als auch maligne mesenchymale Veränderungen in Betracht. Therapeutisch ist eine vollständige Resektion anzustreben, gegebenenfalls eine Kombination aus Chirurgie und Strahlentherapie.

Abstract

We report on a patient suffering from a mesenchymal tumour located at the antihelix. Histopathology of the tissue specimens derived from this lesion reported a myofibroblastic sarcoma, a rare tumour entity with a slight predominance of occurrence in the area of the head and neck. Grading of these tumours can be challenging since benign as well as malign phenotypes have been described. Therefore, beside complete resection of the lesion additional radiotherapy should be discussed individually.
