Update of Pediatric Lipomatous Lesions: A Clinicopathological, Immunohistochemical and Molecular Overview. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11071938. [PMID: 35407546 PMCID: PMC8999862 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11071938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Lipomatous neoplasms are a rare entity in the pediatric population, comprising less than 10% of soft tissue tumors in the first two decades of life. Some characteristics of pediatric adipocytic tumors are analogous to their adult counterparts, some pediatric lipomatous lesions however harbor unique features. In recent years, there have been significant advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis and hence in the classification and treatment of pediatric adipocytic tumors. This literature-based article will provide a review of the presently known clinicopathological, immunohistochemical and molecular features of pediatric lipomatous lesions.

Abstract
Liposarcoma is arare soft tissue sarcoma in children. While prognosis, clinical behavior, and response to therapy among the various histologic subtypes are well described in adults, data in children are limited. Here, we describe our experience treating 14 children with liposarcoma at a large, academic pediatric center and review the available pediatric literature. This comprehensive report adds treatment, survival, and genomic data to pediatric liposarcoma literature.

Liposarcoma in children and young adults: a clinicopathologic and molecular study of 23 cases in one of the largest institutions of China. Virchows Arch 2021; 479:537-549. [PMID: 33738541 DOI: 10.1007/s00428-021-03076-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 02/19/2021] [Accepted: 03/07/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
The incidence of pediatric liposarcoma is rare and most published cases lack systematic genetic analyses. We present clinicopathologic and genetic features of 23 liposarcomas aged <22 years. The study cohort comprised 10 males and 13 females (M:F=1:1.3) aged 11-21 years (median 17 years). The tumors predominantly occurred at the extremities (16/23; 69.6%), followed by the head/neck (2/23; 8.7%), chest (2/23; 8.7%), waist (2/23, 8.7%), and retroperitoneum (1/23; 4.3%). The tumor subtypes were sixteen myxoid liposarcoma (ML), one well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDL), two dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDL), one pleomorphic liposarcoma (PL), and three myxoid pleomorphic liposarcoma (MPL) cases. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis identified MDM2/CDK4 amplification in all WDL/DDL cases (3/3; 100%) and DDIT3 rearrangement in all ML cases (13/13; 100%). Whole-exome sequencing indicated that one PL case and one MPL case exhibited RB1 loss. The two tested MPL cases had TP53 mutation and one of them harbored a TP53 germline mutation. Follow-up information was available for 20 patients (20/23; 87.0%) with a median follow-up duration of 42.5 months (range, 13-120 months). Three patients exhibited tumor progression (3/20;15.0%). Seventeen patients (17/20; 85.0%) survived with no evidence of disease. One MPL case (1/20; 5.0%) died of the disease. In conclusion, despite some overlaps, the occurrence, distribution of subtype, and prognosis of liposarcoma are overall different in children and adults. Most MLs and ALT/WDL/DDLs showed similar genetic aberrations with adult counterparts. Molecular features of MPL overlapped with those of conventional PL. The genetic characteristics including Tp53 status of MPL need further investigation.
