Association of the t(12;22)(q13;q12) EWS/ATF1 Rearrangement With Polyphenotypic Round Cell Sarcoma of Bone
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The t(12;22)(q13;q12) chromosomal rearrangement results in an EWS/ATF1 fusion transcript and is associated with clear cell sarcoma (CCS). CCS is an uncommon tumor arising in tendons and aponeuroses of the extremities and shows evidence of melanocytic differentiation at the light microscopic, immunohistochemical, and/or ultrastructural level. Only 5 cases have been reported to arise in bone, none of which had molecular confirmation of the diagnosis. The current report describes a 7-year-old girl with a primary round cell sarcoma of the left humerus showing polyphenotypic differentiation on immunohistochemical analysis. Antibodies directed at melanocytic antigens were negative, and there was no evidence of melanocytic differentiation by light microscopy or ultrastructural analysis. Cytogenetic analysis revealed rearrangement of the EWS locus within 22q12. RT-PCR and sequence analysis revealed the presence of a fusion transcript bringing together exon 7 of EWS with exon 5 of ATF1, consistent with a type 2 transcript reported in association with CCS. However, given the lack of morphologic features usually present in CCS, a diagnosis of polyphenotypic round cell sarcoma was made. This tumor thus expands the spectrum of neoplasms associated with the t(12;22)(q13;q12) rearrangement.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
