Vimentin antigen is expressed in endothelial cells, fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells and lymphoid cells. A number of tumors co-express vimentin and cytokeratin, for example, thyroid carcinomas, pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands, ovarian carcinomas, and some renal carcinomas. Co-expression of desmin and vimentin has been reported in a number of soft tissue tumors, for example, rhabdomyosarcomas, leiomyosarcomas and alveolar soft tissue sarcomas.
