Clear cell sarcoma of the hand: a case of malignant melanoma of soft parts
A case is reported with clear cell sarcoma (CCS) of the hand. Early diagnosis of clear cell sarcoma is always difficult due to its slow growing nature, benign clinical appearance, lack of pigmentation in most cases, and relatively young age of patients which make it to clinically appear as a benign soft tissue tumor. We report a case of clear cell sarcoma of hand in a 56 year old male with a no...

متن کاملClear Cell Sarcoma (Malignant Melanoma) of Soft Parts: A Clinicopathologic Study of 52 Cases

This is a retrospective study of 52 patients with CCS seen between April 1979 and April 2005 in two institutions. The EWS-ATF-1 fusion transcript was studied in 31 patients ...
متن کاملAbsence of mutations of the BRAF gene in malignant melanoma of soft parts (clear cell sarcoma of tendons and aponeuroses).
Malignant melanoma of soft parts (MMSP), also called clear cell sarcoma of tendons and aponeuroses, is cytogenetically characterized by the t(12;22)(q13;q12) resulting in the chimeric EWSR1/ATF1 gene. MMSP shares a number of morphologic, histologic, and immunohistochemical features with malignant melanoma of the skin, causing diagnostic difficulties in the distinction between MMSP and metastati...
