Atypical Fibroxanthoma of the Eyelid
Atypical fibroxanthoma (AFX) is an uncommon, fibrohistiocytic tumor of the skin that occurs due to actinic damage in the elderly (1). AFX rarely affects eyelid (2). It appears as solitary nodule that smaller than 2 cm (3). Boynton was the first to describe a case of AFX involving the eyelid in the literature (2).

متن کاملAtypical Fibroxanthoma
Atypical fibroxanthoma (AFX) is a nodular dermal ulcerative lesion with a favorable prognosis. AFX most commonly occurs on sun-exposed skin in elderly individuals. AFX is characterized by its association with ultraviolet radiation, not only from a clinical aspect, but also from a molecular aspect. Making a diagnosis of AFX is challenging, and it is important to differentiate it from squamous ce...

occasionally xanthomized, with marked nuclear pleomorphism, prominent nucleoli and atypical mitoses (Fig. 2), together with multinucleated giant cells. Immunohistochemistry revealed positivity for vimentin (Fig. 3A), actin, CD68, CD99 and CD10, while results for S100, HMB45, CD34, desmin, caldesmon and cytokeratins AE1/AE3 and 20 (Fig. 3B) were negative, confirming that it was an atypical fibro...

متن کاملGenomic analysis of atypical fibroxanthoma
Atypical fibroxanthoma (AFX), is a rare type of skin cancer affecting older individuals with sun damaged skin. Since there is limited genomic information about AFX, our study seeks to improve the understanding of AFX through whole-exome and RNA sequencing of 8 matched tumor-normal samples. AFX is a highly mutated malignancy with recurrent mutations in a number of genes, including COL11A1, ERBB4...
