Dendritic fibromyxolipoma is an uncommon benign soft tissue tumor. Here, we report a case in a 53-year-old man presenting a painless mass located deep in the latissimus dorsi of the right back. Microscopically, the tumor was mainly consisted of small spindle and stellate cells, abundant myxoid stroma, collagen bundles and mature adipose tissue. Immunohistochemical study showed the spindle and stellate cells were positive for CD34, Bcl-2 and Vimentim, but not for Keratin, EMA, SMA and Desmin. To date, one year after operation, the patient is well without evidence of recurrence or metastasis. The implication of this report is to provide insights into further understanding of this rare tumor with review of the literature.

Dendritic fibromyxolipoma, a rare subtype of lipoma, mainly occurs in the neck, back, and chest wall. Here, we describe the first reported case located in the parotid gland. It happened in a 24-year-old woman with a well-demarcated painless mass. Pathologically, the tumor was characterized by small spindle and stellate cells, an unequal number of mature fat cells, plentiful myxoid stroma, and collagenous fiber bundles. Immunochemistry demonstrated that the tumor cells were positive for vimentin, CD34, Bcl-2, and desmin, but not for keratin, EMA, SMA, or S-100. The tumor was successfully removed without complications. This report will bring to the attention of clinicians the clinical features and differential diagnosis of this unusual tumor.
