Clinical and Pathological Features of a Schwannoma Harboring a <i>SH3PXD2A::HTRA1</i> Gene Fusion in a Pre-pubescent Patient
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An 11-year-old girl presented with a soft tissue lesion on the dorsal aspect of the left middle finger. Ultrasound imaging demonstrated a 2.8 cm × 0.8 cm × 0.8 cm lesion overlying the dorsal aspect of the base of the digit near the metacarpophalangeal joint. The patient’s past medical history is remarkable for neuroblastoma, diagnosed at 9 months of age, with no MYCN amplification or 1p loss. We report a pediatric schwannoma harbouring a SH3PXD2A::HTRA1 gene fusion with a distinctive serpentine histology. The lesion consisted of well-circumscribed nodules surrounded by thin EMA-positive perineural capsules. Each nodule was composed of lesional cells arranged in short fascicles with occasional clefting and a distinct “serpentine” palisading pattern. The lesion demonstrated Antoni A regions with Verocay body formation. No significant Antoni B areas were seen. The lesional Schwannian cells were bland with elongated and tapered nuclei, showing strong and diffuse positivity for S100. This pre-pubescent girl (Tanner Stage 2) is currently the youngest reported case of fusion-positive schwannoma. In addition, she has a significant prior history of a malignant neoplasm, and the lesion arose in an appendicular location.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
