Patient presented with a relentlessly growing mass on her right front thorax. It was painless, smooth, and adherent to the deep muscle. Laboratory studies were unremarkable. Ultrasonography and computerized tomography (CT) scan revealed a highly vascularized heterogeneous mass (8×9 cm), with a necrotic centre. Positron emission tomography (PET) scan demonstrated multiple thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic nodules. Histology revealed a highly undifferentiated HS (vimentin, CD68, CD99, and CD4 positive). In spite of having started treatment with etoposide and thalidomide, no clinical response was achieved and the patient died three months later.CONCLUSIONS: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first described case of HS in a solid organ transplant patient.Society of Diabetic Nephropathy PreventionRepositório Científico do Centro Hospitalar Universitário de Santo AntónioVentura Aguiar, P.Dias, C.Azevedo, P.Silva, H.Almeida, M.Pedroso, S.Martins, L.Dias, L.Rodrigues, A.Viscaíño, R.Cabrita, A.Henriques, A.2016-08-01T10:54:33Z2015-072015-07-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.16/1988engJ Nephropathol. 2015 Jul;4(3):97-100.2251-836310.12860/jnp.2015.18info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-10-20T10:58:35Zoai:repositorio.chporto.pt:10400.16/1988Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:38:17.556511Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
