Comparisons of magnetic resonance imaging, histopathological and Ki-67 labeling index findings in a single myxofibrosarcoma: a case report
More cellular portions of a myxofibrosarcoma correspond to more areas of the tumor showing aggressive features. Furthermore, our data also support the hypothesis of high aggressiveness being associated with the pathological tail sign in myxofibrosarcoma. To our knowledge, this is the first case report to describe comparisons among the imaging findings, histological features, and Ki-67 immunohistochemistry results for different portions of one myxofibrosarcoma.
