An immunohistochemical study of sinonasal hemangiopericytoma

Based on a thorough histopathological analysis, a sinonasal hemangiopericytoma-like tumor was diagnosed. Hematoxylin and eosin staining also showed a mild degree of nuclear pleomorphism and a slight increase in mitotic activity, and immunohistochemical studies using anti-CD34, MIB-1, and Vimentin antibodies were useful for distinguishing the hemangiopericytoma-like tumor from true hemangiopericytoma and a solitary fibrous tumor.
