Abstract

Mixed Tumor of soft tissue are not so rare but mostly under recognised Tumors. The mixed Tumor and myoepithelioma of soft tissue are ends of a spectrum. There are only less than two hundred cases reported in literature. We report a case of Malignant mixed Tumor of soft tissue in a 47 years old male. The excised specimen revealed a heterogenous neoplasm with rounded, plasmacytoid to spindle shaped cells, with areas of tubular differentiation in a chondromyxoid, hyalinised stroma with metaplastic bone. Cytological criteria of atypia, nuclear pleomorphism and Tumor giant cells favoured malignancy. Immuno Histochemistry confirmed the diagnosis. We report a case of Malignant mixed Tumor of soft tissue.

Keywords: Mixed Tumors; Malignant; Myoepithelioma; Soft tissue.
