Happy to see our @Pathoutlines article on PATZ1-rearranged sarcoma published 👇🏼
https://t.co/uziryeRBEN
3 things to remember about PATZ1-rearranged sarcoma:
💎Pseudoalveolar/(micro)cystic change->Swiss 🧀-like appearance
💎Hyalinized blood vessels
💎Rhabdomyoblastic differentiation often seen -- skeletal muscle marker expression tends to be accentuated around the pseudoalveolar spaces

🔬YAP1::KMT2A‑rearranged sarcoma (with emphasis on diagnostic pitfalls)🔬
Rare fibroblastic sarcoma recently defined by YAP1::KMT2A fusion and a unique methylation profile, often mimicking sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcoma (SEF), low‑grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS), or even benign fibroblastic lesions.
Definition 📚
Soft tissue sarcoma characterized by YAP1–KMT2A/KMT2A–YAP1 fusions, SEF‑like/LGFMS‑like morphology, and an epigenetic cluster distinct from classic MUC4‑positive SEF and LGFMS.
Epidemiology 📊
Predominantly affects young to middle‑aged adults (median around 35–40 years, but a wide 9–90+ years range).
No clear sex predilection, with a slight male predominance in some series.
Sites 📍
Mainly arises in somatic soft tissues of trunk and extremities (deep or subcutaneous), including paraspinal regions, chest wall, axilla, and retroperitoneum.
Uncommon presentations include acral, suboccipital, and rare primary bone cases.
Pathogenesis 🧬
Driven by YAP1–KMT2A fusion, usually in a complex YAP1–KMT2A–YAP1 configuration, preserving the TEAD‑binding domain of YAP1 and the CXXC domain of KMT2A.
Unlike KMT2A‑rearranged leukemias, these tumors lack a strong HOXA signature, suggesting a distinct mechanism involving Hippo/YAP signaling and epigenetic remodeling.
Clinical Features 🩺
Presents as a slow‑growing mass, sometimes present for years, often becoming painful or clinically relevant only at later stages.
Initial pathology reports may label it as benign (fibromatosis, fibroma, “fibrous histiocytoma”) until recurrence or progression reveals malignant behavior.
Laboratory Diagnosis 🧪
No specific serum marker; diagnosis is histologic and molecular.
FISH for EWSR1/FUS is negative; FISH for KMT2A/YAP1 can be falsely negative, so broader DNA/RNA NGS panels or RNA‑seq are often required.
Histopathology 🔬
Architecture: grossly nodular tumors, but with infiltrative borders and “honeycomb” spread through subcutaneous fat and skeletal muscle.
Cytology: ovoid/epithelioid cells in cords, nests or solid sheets within dense collagenous stroma; mitotic activity usually low in hypocellular areas, higher in more solid/anaplastic foci.
Special patterns: perineurioma‑like areas (bland spindle cells in whorled/loose‑storiform pattern), fibroma‑like zones (very dense collagen with sparse cells), and foci of small round or rhabdoid cells in recurrences/metastases.
Additional findings: thin‑walled vessels (sometimes hemangiopericytoma‑like); typical absence of alternating fibromyxoid zones and classic collagen rosettes of LGFMS.
Immunohistochemistry 🧫
Positives:
EMA (diffuse or focal)
YAP1 (N‑ and C‑terminal)
Cyclin D1 in most cases
CD34 and SMA may be focally positive
Negatives:
MUC4 consistently negative (key point against classic SEF/LGFMS)
S100, SOX10, desmin, STAT6, most endothelial markers in typical cases
⚠️Notes:
Some tumors show strong ERG/CD31/D2‑40 and TFE3 expression, closely mimicking epithelioid hemangioendothelioma; in such cases, documentation of YAP1–KMT2A fusion and molecular clustering are crucial for correct classification.
Differential Diagnosis 🧠
Classic SEF – MUC4 strongly positive with EWSR1/FUS–CREB3L1 fusions, more frequent collagen rosettes and an overall more aggressive clinical course.
LGFMS – fibromyxoid pattern with arcades of vessels and collagen rosettes, MUC4 diffuse, FUS–CREB3L2/CREB3L1 fusions.
Perineurioma/DFSP – honeycomb infiltration and CD34 expression may overlap, but they lack SEF‑like morphology and YAP1–KMT2A fusion.
Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma – blister cells and endothelial markers; typical EHE harbors WWTR1/YAP1–TFE3 fusions and falls into a different molecular cluster.
Fibromatosis/scar – fibroma‑like areas may mislead; subtle atypia, transition to more cellular SEF‑like zones, and EMA/cyclin D1 expression favor sarcoma.
Prognosis 📈
Intermediate prognosis between LGFMS and classic SEF: local recurrence in roughly 20–30% and metastases in about 50% of patients with follow‑up, mainly to lungs/pleura.
Overall survival is worse than LGFMS but better than classic SEF; robust histologic or molecular risk stratifiers within this group are not yet well defined.
Treatment 💉
Mainstay is wide surgical excision with negative margins, often combined with adjuvant radiotherapy for deep‑seated or margin‑positive lesions.
Evidence for systemic chemotherapy is limited; extrapolation from SEF suggests modest responses to conventional sarcoma regimens, and no validated targeted therapies are currently established for this fusion.
Take-Home Messages @Notas_Patologia ✅
📌Consider YAP1::KMT2A‑rearranged sarcoma in SEF‑like/LGFMS‑like tumors that are MUC4‑negative.
MUC4 negativity + EMA/cyclin D1 positivity and a YAP1–KMT2A fusion define the diagnosis.
📌FISH for KMT2A/YAP1 may be falsely negative – broader NGS or RNA‑seq is often needed.
📌DNA methylation profiling shows a distinct cluster, separate from SEF and LGFMS.
📌Clinically, this is a malignant sarcoma with a real risk of lung metastasis, even when histology appears deceptively bland.
