ABSTRACT

Biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma (BSNS) is a recently described, low-grade, slow-growing sarcoma with neural and myogenic features with exclusive location in sinonasal track and characteristic PAX3- MAML3 gene fusion. Differentiating this tumor from its commoner mimics needs knowledge of this entity to avoid over treatment. This tumor has unique morphology, clinical course, and genetics. We report this in a 47-year-old female who was diagnosed with such a rare, solitary fibrous tumor—hemangiopericytoma (HPC-SFT) on limited initial biopsy. On subsequent excision, typical morphology and immunohistochemistry helped to clinch the diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To report a Chinese pedigree with autosomal dominant Waardenburg syndrome, and to identify causative gene mutations.Methods:Clinical data and peripheral blood samples were collected from the proband and her parents. Genomic DNA was extracted, gene mutations were detected through a next-generation skin-targeted sequencing panel, and Sanger sequencing was performed to verify causative mutations.Results:The proband clinically presented with irregular white patches on the abdomen and lower limbs, moderate to severe sensorineural deafness in the right ear, and iris heterochromia in both eyes. The proband′s mother presented with iris heterochromia in both eyes, epicanthus, early canities and thick eyebrows. In the family, both the proband and her mother were diagnosed with Waardenburg syndrome. A causative frameshift mutation c.976-977delinsT (p.Thr327Profs*54) was identified in both the proband and her mother, which caused the AG to TT base substitution at positions 976 - 977 in the coding region of exon 7 of the PAX3 gene, resulted in a frameshift from the amino acid position 327 to 54 in the PAX3 protein (threonine was substituted by proline at amino acid position 327). The proband′s father showed a normal phenotype, and his genetic test results were negative.Conclusion:The novel frameshift mutation c.976-977delinsT (p.Thr327Profs*54) in the PAX3 gene may contribute to the clinical phenotype of the patients with Waardenburg syndrome in the family.
