Summary

This study describes two cutaneous tumors with features of sclerotic fibroma but also significant cellular pleomorphism. These unique cases suggest a potential new variant, termed pleomorphic sclerotic fibroma.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatopathology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Sclerotic fibroma is a benign fibrous tumor of the skin.
  • Its characteristic clinical and histologic features are well-documented in medical literature.

Observation:

  • Two cutaneous tumors exhibited typical sclerotic fibroma features.
  • These cases presented with marked focal cellular pleomorphism.

Findings:

  • The observed cellular pleomorphism occurred without an increase in mitotic activity.
  • This suggests a distinct variant of sclerotic fibroma.

Implications:

  • The term 'pleomorphic sclerotic fibroma' is proposed for these distinct lesions.
  • This classification may aid in accurate diagnosis and management of similar cutaneous tumors.
