SOX10-Internal Tandem Duplications and PLAG1 or HMGA2 Fusions Segregate Eccrine-Type and Apocrine-Type Cutaneous Mixed Tumors. Mod Pathol 2024; 37:100430.

Abstract
Cutaneous mixed tumors exhibit a wide morphologic diversity and are currently classified into apocrine and eccrine types based on their morphologic differentiation. Some cases of apocrine-type cutaneous mixed tumors (ACMT), namely, hyaline cell-rich apocrine cutaneous mixed tumors (HCR-ACMT) show a prominent or exclusive plasmacytoid myoepithelial component. Although recurrent fusions of PLAG1 have been observed in ACMT, the oncogenic driver of eccrine-type cutaneous mixed tumors (ECMT) is still unknown. The aim of the study was to provide a comprehensive morphologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular characterization of these tumors. Forty-one cases were included in this study: 28 cases of ACMT/HCR-ACMT and 13 cases of ECMT. After morphologic and immunohistochemical characterization, all specimens were analyzed by RNA sequencing. By immunohistochemistry, all cases showed expression of SOX10, but only ACMT/HCR-ACMT showed expression of PLAG1 and HMGA2. RNA sequencing confirmed the presence of recurrent fusion of PLAG1 or HMGA2 in all cases of ACMT/HCR-ACMT, with a perfect correlation with PLAG1/HMGA2 immunohistochemical status, and revealed internal tandem duplications of SOX10 (SOX10-ITD) in all cases of ECMT. Although TRPS1::PLAG1 was the most frequent fusion, HMGA2::WIF1 and HMGA2::NFIB were detected in ACMT cases. Clustering analysis based on gene expression profiling of 110 tumors, including numerous histotypes, showed that ECMT formed a distinct group compared with all other tumors. ACMT, HCR-ACMT, and salivary gland pleomorphic adenoma clustered together, whereas myoepithelioma with fusions of EWSR1, FUS, PBX1, PBX3, POU5F1, and KLF17 formed another cluster. Follow-up showed no evidence of disease in 23 cases across all 3 tumor types. In conclusion, our study demonstrated for the first time SOX10-ITD in ECMT and HMGA2 fusions in ACMT and further refined the prevalence of PLAG1 fusions in ACMT. Clustering analyses revealed the transcriptomic distance between these different tumors, especially in the heterogenous group of myoepitheliomas.

Pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary glands with intravascular tumor deposits: a diagnostic pitfall. Am J Surg Pathol 2013; 36:1674-82. [PMID: 23073326 DOI: 10.1097/pas.0b013e3182690afe] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
The diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma (PA) of salivary glands is usually straightforward posing few diagnostic problems for the general surgical histopathologist. The purpose of our investigation was to present a series of 22 cases of PA of major salivary glands, each of which contained small foci of tumor within vascular spaces. This feature has previously been described very rarely in PA and may represent a significant diagnostic pitfall. The patients included 12 women and 10 men, ranging in age at diagnosis from 17 to 82 years. Histopathologically, all 22 tumors displayed the features of PA with mixed epithelial and myoepithelial growth patterns and chondromyxoid areas. None of these neoplasms showed any cytologic evidence of malignancy. In all cases, there were multiple dilated thin-walled and/or muscular thick-walled blood vessels containing small intraluminal collections of neoplastic cells with or without myxoid stromal components. The intravascular tumor cells expressed cytokeratins, and in some cases they were also immunoreactive for S-100 protein, GFAP, D2-40, and p63 protein. The intravascular location of the neoplastic cells was confirmed by CD31, CD34, and factor VIII-related antigen immunostains. Reaction for D2-40 was negative in the endothelium of the involved vessel in all cases, confirming that they were vascular rather than lymphatic channels. Seven patients (36%) underwent fine-needle aspiration biopsy 25 days to several years before excision of the tumor. Follow-up of the patients in our series revealed no cases of recurrence or metastasis (range, 6 mo to 9.5 y; mean 3.8 y; median 3.5 y). The biological significance of intravascular tumor in PA is not clear, but there is growing evidence that it is an innocuous phenomenon that might be related to artifactual spillage caused by tumor injury presumably by either fine-needle aspiration or intraoperative trauma.
