Abstract
SMARCB1/SMARCA4-deficient malignancies of the female genital tract are rare entities, characterized by similar histologic features, such as sheet-like growth patterns and rhabdoid cells. Previous studies have shown mutually exclusive loss of SMARCA4/BRG1 and SMARCB1/INI1. Herein, we describe a unique cervical mixed carcinoma in a 77-year-old patient. The tumor consisted of 3 components, gastric-type adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma, and undifferentiated carcinoma. While the undifferentiated carcinoma was negtive for CK7, CK5/6 and p63, it was positive for pan-CK. DNA-based next-generation sequencing revealed a nonsense mutation in SMARCA4, copy number loss in SMARCB1, and a nonsense mutation in ARID1A. Different molecular alterations of the switch/sucrose nonfermenting complex subunits in the present case may provide further insights into the functions of the switch/sucrose nonfermenting complex in the progression of tumors.
期刊介绍：
International Journal of Gynecological Pathology is the official journal of the International Society of Gynecological Pathologists (ISGyP), and provides complete and timely coverage of advances in the understanding and management of gynecological disease. Emphasis is placed on investigations in the field of anatomic pathology. Articles devoted to experimental or animal pathology clearly relevant to an understanding of human disease are published, as are pathological and clinicopathological studies and individual case reports that offer new insights.
