WHO Classification of Disease

Book Haematolymphoid Tumours (5th ed.)
Category Myeloid proliferations and neoplasms
Family Mastocytosis
Type N/A
Subtype(s) Mast cell sarcoma

Definition / Description of Disease

Localized, solid tumor composed of highly atypical mast cells with a destructive growth pattern and metastatic potential.[1][2]

Synonyms / Terminology

Malignant Mast Cell Tumor

Malignant Mastocytoma

Epidemiology / Prevalence

Mast cell sarcoma is a rare entity with no clear gender predilection.[2][1] Cases have been reported in a wide range of ages from infancy to 77 years of age.[3][4] Most cases seem to arise de novo, but two cases have developed in patients with a history of cutaneous mastocytosis.[1]

Clinical Features

Put your text here and fill in the table (Instruction: Can include references in the table. Do not delete table.)

Signs and Symptoms EXAMPLE: Asymptomatic (incidental finding on complete blood counts)

EXAMPLE: B-symptoms (weight loss, fever, night sweats)

EXAMPLE: Fatigue

EXAMPLE: Lymphadenopathy (uncommon)

Laboratory Findings EXAMPLE: Cytopenias

EXAMPLE: Lymphocytosis (low level)


editv4:Clinical Features
The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.

The presentation is variable. The disease is initially localized, followed by distant spread and a terminal phase resembling mast cell leukemia.[2] Progression usually occurs quickly and prognosis is poor. Mast cell sarcoma often results in death within a few months.[1] Treatment includes imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that blocks PDGF-R (platelet-derived growth factor receptor) and the tyrosine kinase proteins encoded by abl (the Abelson proto-oncogene) and KIT, or other tyrosine kinase inhibitors.[3] Surgical debulking, radiation and chemotherapy are the usual first-line therapies.[5][6] Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation represents a potential curative treatment, but evidence of its efficacy is lacking.[1]

Sites of Involvement

Bone, gastrointestinal tract, lymph nodes, skin, spleen, liver, oropharyngeal tract, meninges, uterus, testicles and eyes.[1]

Morphologic Features

Mast cell sarcoma exhibits a solid growth pattern.  Microscopically, this tumor is poorly differentiated and heterogeneous. Mast cell sarcoma cells are usually medium to very large, with pleomorphic or epithelioid cellular features and oval or bilobed nuclei. Multinucleated giant cells may be identified.[1]  Histologic features may even vary between sites within the same patient. The typical features of systemic mastocytosis, including multifocal dense infiltrates of greater than 14 mast cells, are rarely seen in mast cell sarcoma.[2]

Immunophenotype

Finding Marker
Positive Tryptase, stem cell factor receptor KIT (CD117), common leukocyte antigen (CD45), macrosialin (CD68R), amiopeptidase N (CD13), C5a receptor (CD88), GM-CSF receptor alpha chain (CD116)[7]
Negative CD1a, CD2, CD3, CD5, CD14, CD15, CD19, CD20, CD34, CD114[7]

Please incorporate this section into the relevant tables found in:
  • Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)
  • Individual Region Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH
  • Characteristic Chromosomal Patterns
  • Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)

The KIT Asp816Val mutation confers resistance to imatinib.[8] Other reported mutations in the KIT gene, including Asn822Lys and Leu779Phe, may also confer resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors, as suggested by patient outcomes and proximity to the tyrosine kinase domain.[9][10]

editv4:Genes and Main Pathways Involved
The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.

The KIT proto-oncogene encodes the KIT (CD117) tyrosine kinase protein receptor. KIT is found on hematopoietic progenitor cells, mast cells, germ cells, melanocytes, and interstitial cells of Cajal. Most hematopoietic stem cells loose KIT expression during maturation. However, mature mast cells continue to express KIT.  Stem Cell Factor protein is the ligand which binds to KIT protein, leading to dimerization and activation of signaling cascades involved in a wide variety of cellular roles, including regulation of cell survival and proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell development, migration and function. In addition to mast cell disorders, mutations in this gene are found in gastrointestinal stromal tumors and acute myeloid leukemia.[13][14]

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Although non-sequencing methods have been used, sequencing of the entire KIT gene by Sanger sequencing, pyrosequencing or next generation sequencing (NGS) is recommended to identify unknown KIT mutations.[1]

Familial Forms

Most reported cases are sporadic.[1] However, one reported case of mast cell sarcoma arose in a background of familial indolent mastocytosis with urticaria pigmentosa. No KIT mutations were identified in this case.[12]
