Abstract excerpt
Myoepithelial tumors (MET) represent a clinicopathologically heterogeneous group of tumors, ranging from benign to highly aggressive lesions. Although MET arising in soft tissue, bone, or viscera share morphologic and immunophenotypic overlap with their salivary gland and cutaneous counterparts, there is still controversy regarding their genetic relationship. Half of MET of soft tissue and bone harbor EWSR1 or...
