Novel ACTB::FER Promoter Swap Fusion Characterizes Rare Superficial Myoid/Myofibroblastic Tumors

open access: yesGenes, Chromosomes and Cancer, Volume 64, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Pediatric fibroblastic, myofibroblastic, and myoid tumors encompass several entities, many with characteristic gene fusions that are now emerging as molecularly defined tumor groups. Here, we present two cases of spindle cell neoplasms with novel ACTB::FER promoter swap fusions. Both tumors presented in the extremities of pediatric patients (9‐

Chinese Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 16, Issue 5, March 2025.
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare tumor composed of myofibroblasts with lymphoplasmacytic infiltration. It can originate from various organs, including the lungs, nasal sinus, bladder, liver, spleen, colon, spermatic cord, prostate, peripheral nerves, and orbit. Expert Consensus Group on IMT developed this consensus based on the latest

PDGFRA::USP8 Fusion in a Cutaneous Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor, Highlighting Genetic Pleiotropy of Kinase Gene Fusions in Soft Tissue Neoplasms

open access: yesGenes, Chromosomes and Cancer, Volume 64, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT PDGFRA::USP8 fusions have recently been described in neoplasms in the provisional category of calcified chondroid mesenchymal neoplasm (CCMN). Here, we describe a cutaneous inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) on the upper leg of a 24‐year‐old male harboring the same fusion product. The tumor showed a morphology typical of IMT, including a

Eosinophilic fasciitis: an atypical presentation of a rare disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Eosinophilic fasciitis, or Shulman's disease, is a rare disease of unknown etiology. It is characterized by peripheral eosinophilia, hypergammaglobulinemia, and high erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The diagnosis is confirmed by a deep biopsy of the skin.

Scleroderma mimicker – Eosinophilic fasciitis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Rheumatology, 2017
Eosinophilic fasciitis is an uncommon connective tissue disorder characterized by thickening of the deep fascia and overlying skin and subcutaneous tissue. It may mimic scleroderma and other scleroderma-like conditions.

Generalized morphea/eosinophilic fasciitis overlap after epoxy exposure

open access: yesJAAD Case Reports, 2018
Generalized morphea is associated with epoxy resin vapors and is characterized by the development of lesions shortly after exposure. Morphea presenting along with eosinophilic fasciitis (EF), or morphea/EF overlap, is rare and an indicator of poor ...
