Lipofibromatosis-like neural tumors (LPF-NTs) are a recently discovered group of spindle cell tumors defined by the presence of a lipofibromatosis-like pattern, CD34 and/or S100 reactivity, and frequent neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 1 (NTRK1) gene rearrangements. As new cases emerge, the spectrum of features observed in LPF-NTs continues to evolve. Here we describe the case of an 11-year-old with LPF-NT with a dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans-like honeycomb pattern, CD34 and S100 co-expression, and an NTRK1 rearrangement. We also review the clinical and molecular features of the 73 cases of LPF-NT previously described in the literature.
