Abstract
Epithelioid hemangioma (EH) is a benign neoplasm with distinctive vasoformative features, which occasionally shows increased cellularity, cytologic atypia, and/or loco-regional aggressive growth, resulting in challenging differential diagnosis from malignant vascular neoplasms. Based on two intraosseous EH index cases with worrisome histologic features, such as the presence of necrosis, RNA sequencing was applied for possible fusion gene discovery and potential subclassification of a novel atypical EH subset. A ZFP36-FOSB fusion was detected in one case, while a WWTR1-FOSB chimeric transcript in the other, both were further validated by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). These abnormalities were then screened by FISH in 44 EH from different locations with seven additional EH revealing FOSB gene rearrangements, all except one being fused to ZFP36. Interestingly, 4/6 penile EH studied showed FOSB abnormalities. Although certain atypical histologic features were observed in the FOSB-rearranged EH, including solid growth, increased cellularity, mild to moderate nuclear pleomorphism, and necrosis in 3/9 cases, no overt sarcomatous areas were discerned to objectively separate the lesions from the fusion-negative EH. No patient has developed recurrence to date, but the follow-up was relatively limited and short to draw definitive conclusions regarding behavior. Although FOSB-rearranged EH do not show significant morphologic overlap with SERPINE1-FOSB fusion-positive pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma, FOSB oncogenic activation is emerging as an important event in these benign and intermediate groups of vascular tumors.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
