Abstract
Spindle cell neoplasm is an unusual bimorphic malignant tumor that typically affects the upper aero-digestive tract mucosa but can potentially arise elsewhere in the body. A diverse range of benign and malignant tumors, including those with neural, fibroblastic, vascular, myofibroblastic, myogenic, and epithelial origins, are together referred to as soft tissue spindle cell neoplasms. The average age of occurrence is 51 years for men and 67 years for women, with a predominance of men. There is limited information in the literature about the symptoms of spindle cell neoplasms. These tumors typically have a polypoid form, with a high concentration of dysplastic spindle cell components. They are composed of surface epithelial alterations ranging from mild epithelial dysplasia to invasive carcinoma. The article provides insight into a case of neurofibromatous variant of spindle cell neoplasm.
