Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Pathology - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
Several types of benign soft tissue Tumour have been reported to occur on a familial or inherited basis. Most common is hereditary multiple lipomas. Neurofibromatosis (types 1 and 2) associated with multiple benign nerve Tumours. Li- Fraumeni syndrome a rare autosomal dominant disease caused by germline mutations inP53 Tumour suppressor gene, is also associated with sarcoma. A detailed clinical data including history and examination was carried out, as shown in the proforma which is enclosed. Immune status and reports of relevant investigations were recorded from the patients who presented with soft tissue mass or collected from medical records. The Statistical analysis showed a Sensitivity of 89.47%, Specificity of 98.92%, Positive Predictive Value of 94.44%, Negative Predictive Value of 97.87% and Diagnostic Accuracy of 97.32%.
