Malignant gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumor: Cytologic, histologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular pitfalls
Annals of Diagnostic Pathology(2021)
摘要
Malignant gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumor (GNET) is a rare malignant primary gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumor which can be diagnosed via fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. In the context of FNA, the diagnosis requires a cell block and the use of significant resources including immunohistochemical stains and molecular testing. The differential diagnosis of GNET includes clear cell sarcoma (CCS), gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), gastric schwannoma, metastatic melanoma, malignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) and granular cell tumor, among others. Here we describe a case which was initially diagnosed as malignant granular cell tumor by FNA which was later revised to GNET following the finding of an EWSR1-ATF1 fusion gene rearrangement.
