... to the adrenogenital/gonadal ridge (see chapter 1 ). The former include granulosa cell tumor ( 63 ) and a fibrous tumor of the adrenal gland resembling ovarian fibroma ( fig. 12-20 ). This lesion is possibly related to “ovarian thecal metaplasia” (covered in chapter 1 ), and may have a sex-cord stromal derivation...

... validation. NEUROFIBROMATOSIS TYPE 1 SYNDROME Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disease with an incidence of about 1 in 3,000. It is characterized by multiple café-aulait spots, intertriginous freckling, and neuro-fibromas. Cerebral and spinal tumors, skeletal dysplasia...

..., such as a scar/keloid, fibroma, or desmoplastic cellular neurothekeoma ( Table 16-1 ). There are also malignant neoplasms with fibrous stroma that can be confused with DM, such as spindle cell carcinomas or sarcomas with stromal desmoplasia.

... recognition of these tumors. Some, if not many, show features similar to Spitz nevi and present as a flesh-colored, erythematous, brown or black papule, plaque, or nodule. Large tumors may be ulcerated. The clinical impression may be broad, ranging from pyogenic granuloma or fibroma to nevus or melanoma...

.... Most lesions are amelanotic and relatively paucicellular, giving the lesion at low magnification a scar or fibroma-like appearance. Within the dermal stroma the melanocytes may be arranged in small nests, short fascicles, or as solitary units. Angiomatoid vascular changes may be seen. Lymphocytic...

... behind. Distinguishing these from fibromas can be challenging; however, collagen bundles are typically absent and remnant capillary-sized vessels are often seen variably throughout these sclerosed hemangiomas ( fig. 44-7 ). Microscopic Findings. Cardiac hemangiomas are similar to those of soft tissue...
