Abstract:Primary sarcomas of the jaw are very rare tumor with unclear mechanism of tumorigenesis. Identification of genetic alterations contributes to better understanding of tumorigenesis and extension of tumor spectrum, as well as potential therapeutic targets application. Herein, we firstly report a case of primary sarcoma in the mandible with novel SLMAP-BRAF fusion. Morphologically, the tumor was composed of histiocyte-like cells, larger epithelioid cells, spindle cells and osteoclast-like giant cells with moderat… Show more
