Abstract
The family of PEComa encompasses a heterogeneous group of related mesenchymal neoplasms with myomelanocytic differentiation, a distinctive subset of which is characterized by TFE3 gene rearrangement. Recurrent YAP1::TFE3 fusion has been found in clear cell stromal tumor of the lung (CCST-L), and most recently, in two cases classified as inflammatory spindle cell PEComa. However, the potential relationship between CCST-L and PEComa remains unclear. Herein, we report a case of primary pulmonary malignant TFE3-rearranged PEComa with prototypical morphological and immunohistochemical features, unexpectedly harboring YAP1::TFE3 fusion. Our findings further expanded the morphological and molecular spectrum of PEComa-like mesenchymal neoplasms of the lung.
期刊介绍：
Manuscripts of original studies reinforcing the evidence base of modern diagnostic pathology, using immunocytochemical, molecular and ultrastructural techniques, will be welcomed. In addition, papers on critical evaluation of diagnostic criteria but also broadsheets and guidelines with a solid evidence base will be considered. Consideration will also be given to reports of work in other fields relevant to the understanding of human pathology as well as manuscripts on the application of new methods and techniques in pathology. Submission of purely experimental articles is discouraged but manuscripts on experimental work applicable to diagnostic pathology are welcomed. Biomarker studies are welcomed but need to abide by strict rules (e.g. REMARK) of adequate sample size and relevant marker choice. Single marker studies on limited patient series without validated application will as a rule not be considered. Case reports will only be considered when they provide substantial new information with an impact on understanding disease or diagnostic practice.
