Histopathological Analysis of Rare Soft Tissue Tumors: Diagnostic Challenges and Solutions

Abstract

Melissa Pincus

Soft tissue tumors encompass a wide variety of neoplasms that arise from connective tissues such as fat, muscle, nerves, fibrous tissues, blood vessels, or deep skin tissues. While common soft tissue tumors, like lipomas or fibromas, are relatively straightforward to diagnose, rare soft tissue tumors present significant diagnostic challenges due to their diverse histological appearances and overlapping features with other tumor types. This article reviews the diagnostic challenges encountered in histopathological analysis of rare soft tissue tumors and explores potential solutions, including advanced diagnostic techniques and a multidisciplinary approach.
