Superficial CD34 Positive Fibroblastic Tumor: A Rare Entity With Cytological and Histopathological Correlation

Superficial CD34-positive fibroblastic tumor (SPFT) is an extremely rare neoplasm of borderline (intermediate) category. To the best of our knowledge, less than 40 cases have been reported in the English literature. It is imperative to understand and emphasize its cytological features as fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is still considered a first line of investigation in such cases in many countries including India. We present a case of a young male aged 27 years who presented to the General Surgery OPD with a history of slow-growing mass over right thigh for 7 years. FNAC and subsequent histopathological examination revealed a diagnosis of SPFT.
