A subcutaneous mass in the right femoral region of a female F344 Slc/N rat was examined histopathologically. At 83 weeks of age, the animal showed symptoms of severe anemia and nasal bleeding. Necropsy revealed that the mass had invaded the skeletal muscles but did not affect the bones. Multicentric nodules were also observed in the lung. Histopathology revealed a sheet-like growth pattern of polygonal tumor cells with round or comma-shaped nuclei and pale eosinophilic cytoplasm. Osteoid tissue was observed in not only the original lesion but also the metastatic foci in the lung. Each tumor cell was surrounded by argentophil fibers and few collagen fibers. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), vimentin, osterix and osteocalcin, but negative for keratin, S-100, von Willebrand factor, CD-31, CD-34, desmin, α-smooth muscle actin, lysozyme, α1-antitrypsin and rat malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) antigen. CD-68-positive cells were considered to be infiltrated macrophages because they were negative for PCNA. On the basis of these findings, we diagnosed the present case as extraskeletal osteosarcoma.
