Synovial chondromatosis and soft tissue chondroma: extraosseous cartilaginous tumor defined by FN1 gene rearrangement (2019)
Journal Article
Amary, F., Perez-Casanova, L., Ye, H., Cottone, L., Strobl, A., Cool, P., …Flanagan, A. M. (2019). Synovial chondromatosis and soft tissue chondroma: extraosseous cartilaginous tumor defined by FN1 gene rearrangement. Modern Pathology, 32(12), 1762-1771. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41379-019-0315-8

A fusion between fibronectin 1 (FN1) and activin receptor 2A (ACVR2A) has been reported previously in isolated cases of the synovial chondromatosis. To analyze further and validate the findings, we performed FISH and demonstrated recurrent FN1–ACVR2A...
