Recurrent PRDM10 gene fusions in undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma.
PURPOSE Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is defined as a sarcoma with cellular pleomorphism and no identifiable line of differentiation. It is typically a high-grade lesion with a metastatic rate of about one third. No tumor-specific rearrangement has been identified, and genetic markers that could be used for treatment stratification are lacking. We performed transcriptome sequencing...
متن کاملUndifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma*
Dear Editor, By definition, sarcomas are malignant tumors of tissues, derived from mesoderm and involve the oncogenic transformation of mesenchymal stem cells. The two main types of sarcoma are bone and soft tissue sarcomas. Soft tissue sarcomas generally manifest as deep lesions, but they may affect the skin and subcutaneous tissue.1 They are grouped according to similarities in their clinical...
متن کاملUndifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma in Mandible
Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), previously known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, occurs commonly in the soft tissues in adult, but is rare in the maxillofacial region. It consists of undifferentiated mesenchymal tumor cells resembling histiocytes and fibroblasts. The purpose of this article is to report a case of UPS in the mandible. A 44-year-old patient presented with a painful...
متن کاملHead and Neck Tumors: Management of Primary Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma
Introduction: Sarcomas account for 1% of all tumors originated in the head and neck regions in adults. They constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors of mesenchymal origin with multiple histological variants. The undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) subtype is the most frequent variant with an incidence range of 2.7-38%. Materials and Methods: This retrospective...
متن کاملIntraventricular Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcoma: A Case Report
Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma is a histologic diagnosis based on cell morphology. These tumors are found throughout the body. They are rarely found in the central nervous system and almost never occur as a primary intraventricular tumor. We present the unusual case of a 68-year-old woman with an intraventricular undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma. We go on to discuss the clinical prese...
