  Case 66 (HPC:66) : Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK)
  Definition: Clear cell sarcoma of the kidney (CCSK) is a malignant renal tumor of childhood with a propensity to metastasize to bone and other organs. CCSK is linked to internal tandem duplications (ITDs) of the BCOR gene.
  This tumor may also recur many years after its initial diagnosis. The average age (...)

  salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinoma PO WKP WP
  Definition: The mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant neoplasm observed in the major and minor salivary glands.
  Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common adult salivary malignancy. It histologically is non-encapsulated and shows three cell types - squamous, mucous and intermediate, and may show prominent oncocytic change. It is associated with t(11;19) fusing MECT1 and MAML2 (MAML2-MECT1 fusion gene).

• myxoid/round cell liposarcoma
  7 October 2005

  myxoid liposarcoma and round cell liposarcoma group; MRC-LPS
  Definition: Myxoid and round cell liposarcoma accounts for about 30% to 35% of all liposarcomas and, even if still classified by the World Health Organization (WHO) as 2 distinct subtypes, share both clinical and morphologic features.
  See also :
  myxoid liposarcoma
  round cell liposarcoma
  Lesions combining both patterns are frequent and wide agreement exists in considering round cell liposarcoma as the high grade counterpart (...)

• giant cell angiofibroma
  11 October 2005

  Definition: Giant cell angiofibroma is a phenotypic variant of solitary fibrous tumor (SFT).
  Giant cell angiofibroma seems most often to arise in the head and neck region (predominantly orbit) of adults and which, with the passage of time.
  It may well prove to be a variant of solitary fibrous tumour characterized by prominent multinucleate giant cells and lipofibromatosis.
  It is a rare tumour occurring predominantly in the hands or feet of infants and young children.
  it shows a high (...)

  Mixed tumor of salivary glands; salivary pleomorphic adenoma; salivary benign mixed tumor; BMT; pleomorphic adenomas; benign mixed tumor WKPD PO WP
  Definition: Pleomorphic adenoma is a benign neoplastic tumor of the salivary glands. As the name implies, these epithelial tumors are characterized by great histologie diversity; but despite increased cellularity, they are essentially benign lesions.
  Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common type of salivary gland tumor and the most common (...)

  Definition: The renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) associated with Xp11.2 translocations (TFE3 transcription factor gene fusions) are rare tumors predominantly reported in children.
