| Abstract: | We reviewed 98 cases of fine needle aspiration of soft tissue tumors with histologic confirmation performed during an eight-year period and propose a working morphologic classification based on the most prominent cytologic features. Six main tumor groups are recognized: myxoid, round cells, spindle cells, pleomorphic cells, polygonal cells and well differentiated. We believe that this classification allows recognition of the most common soft tissue tumors while helping with the differential diagnosis of other neoplasia, primary or secondary, with similar morphology and a similar presentation. |
