Q

Risk Stratification in Solitary Fibrous Tumour

A

Age of patient (< or > 55 yo)

Tumour size (5, 10, 15cm cut offs)

Mitotic count (per 10 HPF)

Presence of necrosis (< or >10%)

Score for each parameter which are then added to give a total score (low, intermediate or high risk of metastasis)

Q

Staging and Grading of Soft Tissue Sarcomas

A

Unlike other organ systems staging of soft tissue sarcomas is largely determined by grade.

No agree upon grading system but AJCC 8th ed uses FNCLCC system (other main system is NCI).

Not all soft tissue sarcomas are staged or graded:

e. g. DFSP and WDLPS are of intermediate malignancy and low grade by definition.
e. g. Ewing sarcoma, Angiosarcoma, Malignant rhabdoid tumour, DSRCT are all high grade by definition
e. g. ESMC, ASPS, ES, LGFMS and clear cell sarcoma not graded as grade does not predict outcome

FNCLCC system is based on:

Tumour differentiation score (depends on how closesly rumour resembles normal tissue of origin, table in CAP)

Mitotic activity (10 HPF or per 1 mm2)

Necrosis (< or > 50% tumour cell necrosis)

Each parameter is assigned a score then the scores are summed to give an overall grade (Grade 1 = low grade, Grade 2 & 3 = high grade)

AJCC Staging System is based on:

Site (H&N, trunk, extremites, retroperitoneum)

Size of tumour

Extent of involvement
