Not Ewing, as many correctly pointed out. CD99 got 99 problems and specificity ain't one.

This is NUT carcinoma. Pic is NUT #ihcpath clone C52B1. Keratin and p63 also pos. Was diagnosed by cytopath (so neither lung nor soft tissue 😊)

pathologists have really got it figured out because y'all look at swirls of purple and pink and then are like "ah yes, fibropapillomatohippopotamosteosarcocarcinoma" and the rest of us just nod along and can't question it
