Located centrally within lobules • Basaloid/germinative cells at periphery of lobules • Cytologic atypia not prominent • Presence of mitotic figure in germinative layer does not indicate malignant potential Ancillary Tests • Sebocytes express…
Apocrine differentiation is usually seen Often with decapitation secretion • Outer layer of cuboidal myoepithelial cells • Variable degree of mitotic index Top Differential Diagnoses • Syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCP) Similar histologic features, indicating…
Deep subcutaneous/fascial/muscular extension, necrosis, &/or lymphovascular invasion Shows no identifiable line of differentiation (i.e., diagnosis of exclusion) • Synonyms: Superficial malignant fibrous histiocytoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma of skin Clinical Issues • Older…
