Methods The imaging features of 11 cases with ASPS were retrospectively analyzed. Results ASPS mainly exhibited an isointense or slightly high signal intensity on Tl-weighted imaging （TlWl）, and a mixed high signal on T2-weighted imaging （T2Wl）. ASPS was partial, with rich tortuous flow voids, or ＂line-like＂ low signal septa. The essence of the mass was heterogeneous enhancement. The 1 H- MRS showed a slight choline peak at 3.2 ppm. Conclusion The well-circumscribed mass and blood voids, combined with ＂line-like＂ low signals play a significant role in diagnosis. The choline peak and the other signs may be auxiliary diagnoses.展开更多

It is typically found in the head and neck tissues in children or in the deep soft tissues of the lower extremities in young adults. This tumor arises primarily within the skeletal muscles or musculofascial planes. Primary involvement of bone is extremely rare. ASPS has poor prognosis with a propensity for recurrence as well as distant metastasis. In this report, we present a 25-year-old male with primary ASPS in the left scapular bone and discuss the histopathological and immunohistochemical features of this sarcoma.展开更多
