A comprehensive overview of liquid biopsy applications in pediatric solid tumors. NPJ Precis Oncol 2024; 8:172. [PMID: 39097671 PMCID: PMC11297996 DOI: 10.1038/s41698-024-00657-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Liquid biopsies are emerging as an alternative source for pediatric cancer biomarkers with potential applications during all stages of patient care, from diagnosis to long-term follow-up. While developments within this field are reported, these mainly focus on dedicated items such as a specific liquid biopsy matrix, analyte, and/or single tumor type. To the best of our knowledge, a comprehensive overview is lacking. Here, we review the current state of liquid biopsy research for the most common non-central nervous system pediatric solid tumors. These include neuroblastoma, renal tumors, germ cell tumors, osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma and other soft tissue sarcomas, and liver tumors. Within this selection, we discuss the most important or recent studies involving liquid biopsy-based biomarkers, anticipated clinical applications, and the current challenges for success. Furthermore, we provide an overview of liquid biopsy-based biomarker publication output for each tumor type based on a comprehensive literature search between 1989 and 2023. Per study identified, we list the relevant liquid biopsy-based biomarkers, matrices (e.g., peripheral blood, bone marrow, or cerebrospinal fluid), analytes (e.g., circulating cell-free and tumor DNA, microRNAs, and circulating tumor cells), methods (e.g., digital droplet PCR and next-generation sequencing), the involved pediatric patient cohort, and proposed applications. As such, we identified 344 unique publications. Taken together, while the liquid biopsy field in pediatric oncology is still behind adult oncology, potentially relevant publications have increased over the last decade. Importantly, steps towards clinical implementation are rapidly gaining ground, notably through validation of liquid biopsy-based biomarkers in pediatric clinical trials.

Oon ML, Wu B, Goh JY, Chang KTE, Chong YL, Wong ZW, Oh SY, Tan C, Nga ME, Petersson F. Primary Epithelioid Angiosarcoma of the Submandibular Gland-A Case Report with Histology-Cytology Correlation and Comprehensive Molecular Analysis. Head Neck Pathol 2024; 18:56. [PMID: 38916683 PMCID: PMC11199468 DOI: 10.1007/s12105-024-01667-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiosarcoma is a sarcoma that occurs in a range of tissue types, and only rarely in the salivary glands, showing a predilection for the parotid glands of older patients. Preoperative diagnosis may be challenging, especially on cytology, with significant morphological overlap with high-grade primary salivary gland carcinomas. The molecular alterations of this rare salivary gland neoplasm are also not well-characterized. METHODS AND RESULTS We present a case of right submandibular gland swelling in a 73-year-old male. On fine needle aspiration, including immunohistochemical stains on cell block, the tumor was initially diagnosed as poorly differentiated carcinoma. Resection of the submandibular gland revealed epithelioid angiosarcoma. We performed molecular work-up of the tumor, utilizing targeted next-generation sequencing, DNA methylation profiling and fluorescence in-situ hybridization. Histopathologic assessment revealed an infiltrative tumor comprising solid sheets of epithelioid cells. The tumor cells formed haphazardly anastomosing vascular channels with intracytoplasmic lumina containing red blood cells. On immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells were positive for CD31, CD34 and ERG. Approximately 40% of the tumor cells showed nuclear expression of GATA3. A pathogenic TP53 R267W mutation was detected on next-generation sequencing. DNA methylation analysis did not cluster the tumor with any known sarcoma type. Copy number analysis showed possible MYC amplification and CDKN2A losses, although only the latter was confirmed on fluorescence in-situ hybridization. CONCLUSION Epithelioid angiosarcoma is an important differential diagnosis to high-grade salivary gland carcinoma. In particular, GATA3 expression may be encountered in both angiosarcoma and high-grade salivary gland carcinomas and cause diagnostic confusion. Identification of TP53 mutations and CDKN2A losses suggest shared oncogenic pathways with soft tissue angiosarcomas, and should be further investigated.

Abstract
Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is a diagnostic modality for the evaluation of suspicious soft tissue masses. Despite its reasonable sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value in differentiating benign from malignant neoplasms, the exact subtyping of the primary soft tissue tumours can be challenging. Certain tumours constitute "pitfalls" and add to the diagnostic challenge. This review provides a detailed account of the diagnostic challenges in soft tissue cytopathology, including pitfalls and, more importantly, the ways to overcome these challenges by integrating clinical details, key cytomorphological features and judicious application of ancillary techniques.

Abstract
SMARCB1 (INI1) is one of the switch/sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) complexes whose loss is associated with several tumors. SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient intrathoracic neoplasms are extremely rare and known to be highly malignant and lethal. This report presents the case of a patient diagnosed with SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient intrathoracic neoplasm during chemotherapy for plasma cell myeloma. A 77-year-old male patient complained of cough, bloody sputum, and fever with an enlarged right lung mass and pleural effusion. His cytological examination revealed undifferentiated epithelioid and rhabdoid/plasmacytoid cells with bi- or multinucleation, vacuolization, mitosis, and pleomorphism. However, it was difficult to distinguish the relapse of plasma cell myeloma as atypical plasmacytoid cells were detected. Immunohistochemically, the neoplastic cells showed a loss of SMARCB1 (INI1) expression in the cell block of pleural fluid and in the right lung of the autopsy specimen. Further, the patient was diagnosed with SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient intrathoracic neoplasm of the right lung based on histological and autopsy findings. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of cytomorphology in a SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient intrathoracic neoplasm.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Epithelioid sarcoma (ES) is a distinctive malignant mesenchymal neoplasm with atypical epithelioid cells palisading around a central zone of necrosis. ES is a rare entity even in soft tissue pathology. Immunohistochemically, tumors usually show diffuse epithelial membrane antigen and cytokeratin expression and loss of nuclear INI1 (SMARCB1) expression. Here, we report a case of a 64-year-old man with ES arising in the left conchal bowl. Given the clinical presentation including patient's age, sun-exposed area of skin, and slow-growing, asymptomatic, small pink pearly papule, this patient was initially misdiagnosed with basal cell carcinoma clinically and treated with topical imiquimod at an outside facility. The lesion continued to grow and eventually became symptomatic despite the treatment after which biopsy was obtained. Despite the unusual anatomic site and the patient's age, the microscopic and immunohistochemical findings were characteristic of conventional-type ES. Our case shows that ES can arise in rare locations and in older adults where it may be more easily misdiagnosed clinically and pathologically as a nonmelanoma skin cancer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and small tissue biopsy of chordoma have been reported in several small series, but no large series exists. We undertook an examination of 47 cases (with concurrent core needle biopsy in a subset) to analyze diagnostic accuracy, cytomorphology, and immunohistochemistry. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our cytopathology files were searched for examples of chordoma with histopathologic verification. FNA biopsy smears and core needle were performed using standard techniques. RESULTS Forty-seven cases of chordoma were retrieved from 44 patients [M:F; 1.8:1; age range 5-81 years; mean age 55 years]. Twenty-seven presented with primary, 10 with locally recurrent, and 7 with metastatic tumors. Two aspirates were from the appendicular skeleton, 2 from the trunk, 1 from neck lymph node, and 42 aspirates (89%) from axial and peri-axial skeleton and surrounding soft tissues. Four were cytologic touch imprints while the remainder were FNA biopsy specimens. Specific cytologic diagnoses were chordoma/consistent with chordoma (44 cases, 94%), suspicious for chordoma (2), and malignant neoplasm (1). Along with a single case of benign notochordal tumor misdiagnosed as chordoma, our diagnostic accuracy was 91%. Concurrent tissue biopsy was performed in 51% of cases. Immunohistochemical staining of tumor in 29 (62%) cases showed expression of brachyury in 23 of 24 (96%) instances. Cytopathology consisted of cellular smears populated by large cells possessing enormous amounts of vacuolated and non-vacuolated cytoplasm with an abundant background myxoid/chondromyxoid stroma. CONCLUSIONS FNA and small tissue biopsy specimens show a very high degree of diagnostic accuracy in recognition of chordoma.

Abstract
Mesenchymal tumors of the mediastinum are a heterogenous group of rare tumors with divergent lineages. Mediastinal mesenchymal tumors are diagnostically challenging due to their diversity and morphologic overlap with nonmesenchymal lesions arising in the mediastinum. Accurate histologic diagnosis is critical for appropriate patient management and prognostication. Many mediastinal mesenchymal tumors affect distinct age groups or occur at specific mediastinal compartments. Neurogenic tumors, liposarcoma, solitary fibrous tumor, and synovial sarcoma are common mesenchymal tumors in the mediastinum. Herein, we provide an update on the diagnostic approach to mediastinal mesenchymal tumors and a review of the histologic features and differential diagnosis of common benign and malignant mesenchymal tumors of the mediastinum.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The SWI/SNF complex core subunit SMARCB1 is inactivated in a variety of neoplasms that share characteristic "rhabdoid" cytomorphology. The aim of this study was to evaluate SMARCB1-deficient soft tissue neoplasms on cytology to identify diagnostic clues. METHODS Eleven SMARCB1-deficient tumors, including six epithelioid sarcomas, three malignant rhabdoid tumors, one epithelioid malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), and one poorly differentiated chordoma with fine-needle aspiration (FNA), serous effusion, or touch prep (TP) from two institutions, were included. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed in two cases. RESULTS Evaluation of FNA (n = 4), effusion (n = 4), and TP (n = 3) in nine adult and two pediatric patients demonstrated cellular samples (n = 11), epithelioid cells with rhabdoid morphology (n = 9), eccentrically located nuclei with prominent nucleoli (n = 7), and cytoplasmic bodies (n = 4); two patients were diagnosed on FNA with cell block. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) demonstrated SMARCB1 loss in all cases and keratin and/or EMA expression in all but the epithelioid MPNST; NGS identified SMARCB1 inactivation in both cases. CONCLUSIONS SMARCB1-deficient soft tissue neoplasms comprise a variety of tumors with epithelioid morphology and frequent expression of keratin and/or EMA. Recognition of characteristic rhabdoid morphology on cytology can prompt IHC and/or NGS testing for SMARCB1 deficiency and help establish the diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma (MIFS) is a rare low-grade sarcoma presenting as a slow-growing mass that occurs mainly in the distal extremities of adults. Relatively little is known about the cytopathology of MIFS. We evaluated cytologic characteristics of MIFS on fine-needle aspiration (FNA). MATERIALS AND METHODS A search was made of our cytopathology and surgical pathology databases for cases diagnosed as MIFS. FNA biopsy smears and cell-block were performed and examined using standard technique. RESULTS Eight cases were retrieved from patients aged 22-90 years (mean, 56 years), and M:F ratio of 1:1. Six tumors (75%) were primary, and 2 (25%) locally recurrent. Distal lower limb was involved in all but one case (88%). One (13%) recurrent case was correctly diagnosed cytologically as MIFS; remaining single diagnoses were varied: myxofibrosarcoma, low-grade sarcoma, malignant neoplasm, myxoid neoplasm, atypical fibrohistiocytic neoplasm, atypical cells with chronic inflammation, and spindle cells with atypia. Among 7 cases with available cytologic slides for review, common features were spindle cells with variable atypia (100%), rare virocyte/Reed-Sternberg -like cells (86%), background mixed inflammation (71%), and variable myxoid stroma (57%). Pseudolipoblasts and multinucleated giant cells were rare. Hemosiderin and branching capillaries were largely absent. Immunohistochemistry was non-specific. CONCLUSION MIFS was accurately interpreted in only 13% of cases; remaining cases were diagnosed as atypical or malignant, which would lead to proper management. A specific cytologic diagnosis of MIFS using FNA is extremely difficult in our experience due to an absence of distinctive cytomorphology and specific immunophenotype.

Abstract
We present a case (41 years old pregnant female) with epithelioid sarcoma arising in the left external auditory canal. On immunohistochemistry, the tumor cell diffusely expressed cytokeratins and showed patchy expression of ERG and CD34. The neoplastic cells demonstrated uniform loss of INI1-expression. Epithelioid sarcoma arising in the external auditory canal is rare. Awareness that ES may rarely arise at unusual sites is of critical importance in order to apply a broad enough panel in the immunohistochemical study, so a misdiagnosis of carcinoma can be avoided.
