概要 <p>A 71-year-old male presented with a 12 cm subcutaneous mass in the left gluteal region that was freely mobile beneath the overlying skin. MRI showed a heterogeneous high signal on T2-weighted and diffusion-weighted imaging, raising suspicion of a soft tissue sarcoma. Hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed a mixture of heavily fibrotic and myxoid-rich areas with an abrupt transition. In the fibrous regions, there was proliferation of atypical spindle cells with mild cytologic atypia, whereas the myxoid areas demonstrated hyalinization and rosette-like structures. In addition, areas of vascular proliferation were noted. MUC4 was diffusely positive in the cytoplasm of the suspected tumor cells and Ki-67-positive cells were sparse. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) was made. Twelve months after wide excision, there has been no evidence of metastasis or recurrence. LGFMS, also known as Evans tumor, is classified under fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumors, malignant, in the 5th edition of the WHO Classification of Tumours of Soft Tissue and Bone. Although it exhibits low cellular atypia, its long-term prognosis is considered poor due to the potential for recurrence and metastasis, necessitating careful monitoring. Herein, we report a relatively rare case of LGFMS definitively diagnosed by MUC4 immunohistochemistry, with a review of the literature. Skin Research, 25 : 28-34, 2026</p>
