Abstract

Round cell tumors from time indefinite have been affecting mankind, not only by their dangerous and lifethreatening nature but also by their vast variety. Number of tumors share similar histology, composed ofrelatively uniform primitive Small Round Blue Cells. They also share many demographic, radiographicand clinical similarities, which often lead to misinterpretation and wrong diagnosis. These tumors, althoughsharing similar looks which is quite confusing, come from different origin, in different sizes, colors, site ofaction & most importantly nature. A few are aggressive and others are latent and benign. In some cases theetiology is known, however on the other hand a large number of these tumors have an idiopathic etiology.Whatever the lesion or however the appearance clinically, histopatholgically or cytologically, these round celltumors, continue to fascinate and confuse us & lack of a proper classification adds to the misinterpretation.This review article is thus an attempt to go through this vast variety of tumor thoroughly along with anattempt to provide a proper classification for the tumor itself.

Abstract

Hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is a very rare tumor with uncertain malignant potential. It is a soft tissuetumor which originates from the pericytes in the walls of the blood capillaries. Both benign and malignantvarieties are present with the tendency to metastasize. It was first described by Stout and Murray in 1942.The incidence of occurrence in oral cavity is very rare. We report a case of 57 year old male, who presentedwith an exophytic overgrowth from the lingual aspect of the maxillary left gingiva which extended into thepalatal area. The tumor was completely removed with wide surgical excision. The histopathological studyof the tumor suggested the HPC.
