Abstract | Molecularly defined neoplasms are increasingly recognized, given the broader application and performance of molecular studies. These studies allow us to better characterize these neoplasms and learn about their pathogenesis. In the thorax, molecularly defined neoplasms include tumors such as NUT carcinoma, SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor (DUT), primary pulmonary myxoid sarcoma with EWSR1::CREB1 fusion, hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma, and SMARCB1-deficient neoplasms. Overall, these tumors are rare but are now more often recognized given more widely available immunostains such as NUT (NUT carcinoma), BRG1 (SMARCA4-DUT), and INI-1 (SMARCB1-deficient neoplasm). Furthermore, cytogenetic studies for EWSR1 to support a hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma or primary pulmonary myxoid sarcoma are, in general, easily accessible. This enables pathologists to recognize and diagnose these tumors. The diagnosis of these tumors is important for clinical management and treatment. For instance, clinical trials are available for patients with NUT carcinoma, SMARCA4-DUT, and SMACRB1-deficient neoplasms. Herein, our current knowledge of clinical, morphologic, immunophenotypic, and molecular features of NUT carcinomas, SMARCA4-DUT, primary pulmonary myxoid sarcomas, hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma, and SMARCB1-deficient neoplasms will be reviewed. |
