Abstract
Myopericytoma (MPC) is a rare, benign, and cellular mesenchymal neoplasm. Histologically, it is characterized by concentric perivascular proliferation of spindle-shaped tumor cells. While MPCs predominantly occur in the subcutaneous or superficial soft tissues of distal extremities, oral MPCs are exceptionally rare. Herein, we present a case of MPC located in the sublingual region of a 74-year-old male. Additionally, we conducted a systematic review of 29 previously reported cases to delineate the clinicopathological and molecular features of MPC. This comprehensive analysis aims to improve diagnostic accuracy and enhance the cognition of this uncommon tumor entity's clinicopathological characteristics and biological behavior.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology (IJCEP, ISSN 1936-2625) is a peer reviewed, open access online journal. It was founded in 2008 by an international group of academic pathologists and scientists who are devoted to the scientific exploration of human disease and the rapid dissemination of original data. Unlike most other open access online journals, IJCEP will keep all the traditional features of paper print that we are all familiar with, such as continuous volume and issue numbers, as well as continuous page numbers to keep our warm feelings towards an academic journal.
