Abstract
Objective: To review tumors identified as "clear cell sarcoma" in order to determine similarities to the rare EWS fusion positive jaw and salivary gland tumors clear cell odontogenic carcinoma (CCOC) and clear cell carcinoma of the salivary gland (CCC).
Methods: PubMed was used to collect all reports of clear cell sarcoma (CCS). Search parameters were "clear cell sarcoma" and "CCS." References in the publications were screened and cross-referenced. Data extracted included demographic characteristics, presenting signs and symptoms, radiographic findings, histological and immunohistochemical features and known molecular/genetic aberrations.
Results: Clear cell sarcoma has several similarities to CCOC and CCC. All three tumor types have similar histologic appearances including the presence of clear cells, as well as similar genetic profiles in that all harbor an EWSR1-CREB family fusions. Additionally, these tumors appear in soft tissue as well as bone, and can have a prolonged clinical course. CCS can appear anywhere in the body, including the head and neck region. All three tumors appear to have a predilection to women, although CCS may have a slight younger age of onset as compared to CCOC and CCC (3rd vs 5th decade of life, respectively).
Conclusion: Gaining a better understanding of the similarities and differences between these three tumors may lead to a better understanding of each one.
期刊介绍：
Head & Neck Pathology presents scholarly papers, reviews and symposia that cover the spectrum of human surgical pathology within the anatomic zones of the oral cavity, sinonasal tract, larynx, hypopharynx, salivary gland, ear and temporal bone, and neck.
The journal publishes rapid developments in new diagnostic criteria, intraoperative consultation, immunohistochemical studies, molecular techniques, genetic analyses, diagnostic aids, experimental pathology, cytology, radiographic imaging, and application of uniform terminology to allow practitioners to continue to maintain and expand their knowledge in the subspecialty of head and neck pathology. Coverage of practical application to daily clinical practice is supported with proceedings and symposia from international societies and academies devoted to this field.
Single-blind peer review
The journal follows a single-blind review procedure, where the reviewers are aware of the names and affiliations of the authors, but the reviewer reports provided to authors are anonymous. Single-blind peer review is the traditional model of peer review that many reviewers are comfortable with, and it facilitates a dispassionate critique of a manuscript.
