“…A number of recurrent molecular aberrations in TET have already been identified, making molecular studies for TET a diagnostically important tool. Intriguingly, most of the recurrent gene fusions in TET involve mastermind-like transcriptional coactivator 2 (MAML2) gene, namely, MAML2::CRTC1 in mucoepidermoid carcinoma, MAML2::KMT2A in a subset of B2 and B3 thymomas, and importantly regarding the current case, YAP1::MAML2 in metaplastic thymoma [4]. Zhao et al in their study of 17 metaplastic thymoma cases proved that YAP1::MAML2 rearrangement is found in both epithelioid and spindle cell components, which again confirms the neoplastic origin of the spindle cell/stroma-like component [6].…”
