Abstract

PEComa (PEC tumor; perivascular epithelioid cell tumors) is a rare group of tumors of mesenchymal origin composed of perivascular epithelioid cells (PEC) with features of melanotic and smooth muscle differentiation. In this article, we would like to present the current treatment options for this group of tumors. PEComas are classified as tumors of uncertain malignant potential because recurrences occur after radical treatment. The primary treatment is surgical resection with negative margins. Due to the different locations of the tumors, often the cooperation of multispecialty surgeons is required during the operations. In locally advanced cases, cytoreduction and HIPEC may be effective but still are an experimental treatment. For nonresectable PEComa chemotherapy, mTOR inhibitors and VEGFR inhibitors are used.
