Abstract
Round cell tumors are a group of malignant tumors which shows overlapping microscopic features of small round monotonous cells with hyper-chromatic nucleus. It mostly occurs in children, adolescent, and young adults. The ancillary technique to confirm the differential diagnosis of round cells sarcoma is immuno-histo chemistry (IHC). Therefore, it is of interest to document the diversity of small round cell sarcoma in soft tissues around bones among Indian patients using IHC. A total of 334 cases among Indians were studied. Among them 160 cases were Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, 82 cases are poorly differentiated carcinoma and 92 cases of round cell sarcoma. Out of 92 cases, there were (40%) 27 cases of Wilms tumour, with the highest incidence. The highest incidence was observed in 0-14 years of age group with highest incidence in males. The distribution and diverse histology of different small round cell sarcoma offers challenge in the diagnosis by histopathology. Most frequent round cell tumour is Wilms tumour, followed by Rhabdomyosarcoma. Data shows the role of IHC in classifying soft tissue sarcoma but some time result of IHC remains inconclusive, where cytogenetic is important.
