Gastric Follicular Dendritic Cell Sarcoma: A Case Report of a Rare Entity
Abstract
Follicular Dendritic cell sarcoma arises from the follicular dendritic cells present in the lymphnode.Though are commonly seen in head and neck area but are extremely rare in the abdomen. Less than eighty cases are reported in the indexed literature. We herein describe a case of follicular dendritic cell sarcoma arising from the stomach wall with infiltration into pancreas in an 85 year old patient.
