PG - 919-923 LID - 10.3760/cma.j.cn112151-20201108-00833 [doi] AB - Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological, immunohistochemical and molecular features of small round cell sarcoma (SRCS) of the bone and soft tissue, and to compare the diagnostic value of different techniques. Methods: Seventy-two cases of SRCS of the bone and soft tissue diagnosed at People's Hospital, Peking University from January 2016 to March 2020 were recruited and retrospectively analyzed for pathological morphology, immunophenotype and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) data. Next generation sequencing (NGS) was performed on 13 difficult cases. Results: In the study cohort, the patients ranged in age from 4-55 years, with a male predominance. The most Ewing's sarcomas and osteosarcomas occurred in the bone, while CIC-rearranged sarcomas, BCOR-rearranged sarcoma, synovial sarcoma, extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma and FUS-NFATc2 rearranged sarcoma occurred in soft tissue. Histologically, all cases were composed predominantly of small round cells. Most cases were positive for vimentin and CD99, and showed a variable reactivity for neurogenic markers. Muscle marker and epithelial marker were negative for most cases. Combined with clinical features, histopathologic findings, immunophenotype, FISH and NGS, we diagnosed 46 Ewing sarcomas, 14 osteosarcomas, 3 CIC-rearranged sarcomas, 1 BCOR-rearranged sarcoma, 1 synovial sarcoma, 1 clear cell soft tissue sarcoma, 1 extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma, 1 FUS-NFATc2 rearranged sarcoma, and 4 undifferentiated small round cell sarcomas. Conclusions: SRCS of bone and soft tissue is a group of malignant mesenchymal tumors based on morphological features. Most cases can be diagnosed with a combination of clinical characteristics, morphological features and immunohistochemical phenotype, while some cases require such further tests as FISH and NGS technologies, and NGS can be useful in diagnosing and categorizing SRCS.
