Abstract:Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare and highly aggressive mesenchymal tumor that develops in the abdominal cavity of young men adults. Patients typically present with symptoms of abdominal sarcomatosis. Diagnosis is based on histological analysis of biopsies which typically show small round blue cells in nests separated by an abundant desmoplastic stroma. DSRCT is associated with a unique chromosomal translocation t(11:22) (p 13; q 12) that involves the EWSR1 and WT1 genes. The prognosis is p… Show more
“…Unfortunately, durable responses are limited, and the prognosis for patients remains poor [32]. Median survival ranges from 14 to 25 years [14] with some reports with patients as young as 5 months [33]. 3-year overall survival is dismal at around 44% and the 5-year survival rate a dismal 15% [8] with a slightly higher survival reported among those undergoing debulking including 1-2 mm implants [34] of at least 90% of tumor absence of extraperitoneal metastasis [32].…”
