Abstract excerpt
BRAF V600E is the predominant oncogenic driver of L-group histiocytoses, which includes Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD); however, limited data exist on the prevalence of this mutation in sporadic XG family lesions. This study sought to determine the incidence of BRAF V600E mutation in a clinically annotated cohort of patients with xanthogranulomas (XG) and reticulohistiocytomas (RH). A retrospective review of 58...
