ABSTRACT
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare neoplasm of young adults and it is characterized by polyphenotypic differentiation. We experienced a case of abdominal DSRCT that occurred in a 19-year-old female who presented with painful swelling of her right forearm. The tumor was cytokeratin-negative and it exhibited some tumor cells with intranuclear inclusions. Molecular demonstration of EWS-WT1 fusion transcripts is particularly useful to confirm the diagnosis of DSRCT without epithelial differentiation. We report here on a case of cytokeratin-negative DSRCT that showed an unusual feature of intranuclear inclusions.
