Interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (IDCS) represents an extremely rare neoplasm frequently originating from T-cell– associated dendritic antigen-presenting cells normally populating the paracortex of lymph nodes. Diagnosis is challenging due to the rarity of this neoplasm and the overlapping features with the other primary and metastatic spindle cell neoplasm, even more, when localized in an extra-nodal site. Herein we report a case of 48 Years old woman with a six-month history of centimetric, quiet painful mass of the philtrum without other significant comorbidity. Histological report showed a proliferation of quiet bland spindle to plump cell, scattered multinucleated giant cell in a subtle background of lymphocytes. IHC study displays only positivity for S-100 and fine, granular scattered cytoplasmatic stain for CD68; all dendritic IHC markers were negative. Morphological and immunohistochemical analyses were consistent with extra-nodal Interdigitating Dendritic Cell Neoplasm. Interdigitating Dendritic Cell Sarcoma is a rare and challenging entity with a variable prognosis. We present a case of extra-nodal IDCS whit low worrisome histological features, emphasizing the need for further efforts to better definitely this rare neoplasm ad its potential for malignancy.

An unusual case of extra-nodal interdigitating dendritic cell neoplasm: sarcoma or not?
