An intraosseous myoepithelial carcinoma with a EWSR1::PBX3 fusion.

Herein we report a case of an intraosseous myoepithelial carcinoma harboring a EWSR1::PBX3 fusion gene. The patient was a 64-year-old male found to have a 7 cm destructive lesion in the distal ulna with an extraosseous soft tissue component. Microscopic examination of the resected tumor showed a spindle-cell lesion within a sclerotic stroma and intravascular tumor emboli. At higher power the tumor cells showed moderate nuclear atypia with a high mitotic count (20 per mm 2 ). Immunohistochemistry revealed diffuse EMA positivity and focal pancytokeratin (AE1/AE3) and S100 expression, consistent with myoepithelial differentiation. NGS using the Oncomine Childhood Cancer Assay (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) revealed a EWSR1-PBX3 fusion and ABL amplification. The patient subsequently developed local recurrence as well as distant lymph node, lung and vertebral metastases; he is currently awaiting systemic treatment in the context of a clinical trial. In this report, we present a rare case of a skeletal myoepithelial tumor harboring a EWSR1::PBX3 fusion with demonstrated histological and clinical features of malignancy.
