Molecular Detection of JAZF1-JJAZ1 Gene Fusion in Endometrial Stromal Neoplasms with Classic and Variant Histology

Abstract excerpt

Endometrial stromal tumors (ESTs), including low-grade endometrial stromal sarcomas (LGESSs) and endometrial stromal nodules (ESNs) of classic histology, exhibit characteristic morphologic features and contain the nonrandom t(7;17)(p15; q21), which results in the fusion of two novel genes, JAZF1 and JJAZ1. ESTs may pose diagnostic challenges when they involve extrauterine sites, present as metastases, or display...
