With the unlabeled immunos, I am struggling !!!!!!!!
Will try:
A spindle cell neoplasm with a collagenous/myxoid background.
The second, third and fourth images show large bizarre cells, the second image also shows a cell with cytoplasmic vacuoles ( thought of it as ? lipoblast). The last two images show perivascular collections of cells with foamy/bubbly cytoplasm. Could it be a liposarcoma (paratesticular liposarcoma)??? I am thinking of the spindle cell type type of atypical lipomatous tumor/well differentiated liposarcoma????
I might be wrong though.. I am not expert in this area and I would love to know the correct diagnosis.

Struggling too!
What about pleomorphic hyalinising angiectatic tumour?
Not sure about the nature of the perivascular cells with cytoplasmic vacuolation!

My opinion is PHAT too. Ganglion-like cells have been described in this condition. The vacuolated cells are reminescent of pseudolipoblasts seen in myxoinflamatory fibroblastic sarcoma, a related neoplasm. Last immuno image is probably CD34, that is positive in PHATs. Anxious to know the correct diagnosis!

Sorry for the unlabeled immunos. Both are CD34 (you can see the vessels). I called this pleomorphic hyalinizing angiectatic tumor (CD34 is positive).
