  • Uncommon overall.[1]
    • Common for the anatomical site.
  • Benign.
  • Slow growing.[1]
  • Elderly.
  • May be large - impair respiratory function.[2]

Gross/radiology

  • Chest wall.

Microscopic

Features:

  • Spindle cells - usually bland cytology.
  • Patternless pattern.
  • +/-Ropy collagen.

Suggestive of malignant:[2]

  • Mitotic rate >4/10 HPF.
