Résumé

Cutaneous histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a rare malignant tumor. An 82-year-old woman presented with a 4 × 2-cm irregular-shaped red nodule on the left posterior scalp. A biopsy specimen revealed sheets of pleomorphic atypical cells in the dermis and subcutis. A diagnosis of HS was made based on the results of a panel of immunohistochemical stains that revealed positivity of leukocyte common antigen, CD4, CD163, and HLA-DR. At the time of resection, the tumor grew rapidly to 12 × 6.5 × 5 cm in size in 2 months. The resected tumor comprised round, oval, plasmacytoid, and spindled cells. Signet-ring cell type tumor cells were also observed. The histiocytic nature of HS was confirmed owing to the presence of cellular cannibalism, emperipolesis, Langhans giant cell-like cells, Touton giant cell-like cells, foreign-body giant cell-like cells, and hemosiderin laden cells. In some foci, a storiform pattern and fascicular pattern were occasionally observed. Local recurrence occurred shortly after resection. Subsequent radiation therapy showed insufficient effectiveness. It is challenging to make a diagnosis of HS without performing immunohistochemical studies; however, a variety of histiocytic features confirmed in hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections may suggest HS.
