摘要
Atypical fatty rumors present problems of terminology and diagnosis. While atypical fatty tumors that are located in subcutaneous tissues have an extremely good prognosis, local recurrence and transformation to a higher grade tumor may occur. Alien et al document the morphologic features and behavior of 37 atypical subcutaneous fatty tumors and describe a system of grading. The commentary dis cusses the terminology of atypical fatty turners, the relevance of the proposed grading system, and the significance of a spindle cell component in atypical subcutaneous fatty tumors.
