Walsh, H. orcid.org/0000-0002-6516-7210, Brierley, D., Patterson, A. et al. (1 more author) (2023) A fibroblastic reticular cell tumour arising in the oral cavity: a case report and review of the literature. Head and Neck Pathology, 17. pp. 534-539. ISSN 1936-055X
Abstract
Background Tumours of dendritic or histiocytic lineage are amongst the rarest tumours and probably account for < 1% of tumours affecting the lymph nodes or soft tissue. Because several of these entities were poorly recognised until recently, the true incidence is not determined.
Methods We present what we believe is the first reported case report of a fibroblastic reticular cell tumour arising in the oral cavity as well as reviewing the current literature regarding this rare subset of tumours.
Results We discuss the clinical and histopathological findings of our reported case and examine the literature regarding this entity. We discuss the key differential diagnoses to consider when making this diagnosis.
Conclusion Histiocytic and dendritic cell derived tumours are exceptionally rare within the head and neck region although a number of these tumours have been reported within the oral cavity. We present what we believe is the first reported case of a fibroblastic reticular cell tumour arising within the oral cavity.
