Abstract excerpt
Recurrent mutations in the myogenic transcription factor MYOD1 and PIK3CA were initially described in a subset of embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas. Recently, two independent studies demonstrated presence of MYODI (L122R) mutations as the basis to re-classify a spindle cell rhabdomyosarcoma, along with a sclerosing rhabdomyosarcoma, distinct from an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. We analyzed a much larger cohort of 49...
