Abstract
Langerhans cell sarcoma (LCS), a rare malignant neoplasm in the general category of myeloid neoplasms characterized by overtly malignant Langerhans cells (LC) with conspicuous mitotic activity including atypical forms. Although most cases occur in adults, rare examples of LCS have been reported in children with variable clinical outcome. We present 2 childhood cases of Langerhans cell neoplasm with high grade sarcomatous features and OSBPL9::BRAF fusion and BRAF V600E mutation.
期刊介绍：
The Journal covers the spectrum of disorders of early development (including embryology, placentology, and teratology), gestational and perinatal diseases, and all diseases of childhood. Studies may be in any field of experimental, anatomic, or clinical pathology, including molecular pathology. Case reports are published only if they provide new insights into disease mechanisms or new information.
