📝Abstract

Soft tissue tumors are enormously vast and yet relatively undiscovered. Tumors and tumor like lesions of soft tissue continues to be a challenge to both the surgeons and pathologists due to their diversity in biological behavior and histogenesis. Soft tissue tumors are mesenchymal proliferations that occur in the extraskeletal, non-epithelial tissues of the body, excluding the viscera, coverings of the brain, and lymphoreticular system. Benign tumors are more common than malignant ones in ratio of 100:1. Hematoxylin & Eosin sections act as a useful diagnostic technique in the initial diagnosis of tumors. The goals of the review is to introduce the most common soft tissue entities of fibrous tissue origin and provide with a basic knowledge regarding the diversity of soft tissue tumors.

Key Words: Soft Tissue Tumors, Collagen, Fibroblasts, Histiocytes, Immunohistochemistry.
