Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcomas (EMCs) are solid tumors that have been genetically and biologically characterized. Only a few studies have discussed the role of the KIT gene or CD117 expression in EMCs, identified by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. Herein, we present a novel case of cellular EMC exhibiting an EWSR1-NR4A3 fusion, KIT exon 13 mutations and strong diffuse expression of CD117....
