In H-E stain, tumor cell included many multinucleated giant cells having abundant eosinophilic and foamy cytoplasm infiltreated by numerous lymphocyte, CD68 & alpha-1-antit-rypsin antibody staining resulted in diffuusely positive finding. Therefore examination. Good result was noted after complete excision at 6 month follow-up.
