Despite its clinical significance, the cellular and genetic characteristics of DPAC remain incompletely understood.Methods: We conducted a comprehensive genomic and transcriptomic analysis of DPAC (n = 14) using targeted next-generation DNA and RNA sequencing, along with gene expression profiling employing the Nanostring Technologies nCounter IO 360 Panel. Gene expression in DPAC was compared to that in hidradenoma (n = 10). Immunohistochemistry was employed to validate gene expression.Results: Two out of eight DPACs showed fusion gene rearrangements (CRTC3::MAML2 and TRPS1::PLAG1). No uniform mutational signature was detected in DPAC. Comparative gene expression analysis revealed an enrichment of genes related to matrix remodeling, metabolism, and DNA damage repair. Hallmark pathway analysis demonstrated significant upregulation of E2F target genes in DPAC compared to hidradenoma (p = 0.00710). Human papillomavirus-42 was found to be positive in all of our tested DPAC cases. Immunohistochemistry confirmed increased protein expression of CD56, CDC20, and SOX10 in DPAC. Notably, most DPAC tumors also exhibited B-cell infiltration, as indicated by CD20 staining.Conclusions: Our findings reveal novel fusions and validate altered replication pathways related to HPV42 in DPAC.","PeriodicalId":15407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cutaneous Pathology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142932023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, histopathologic features of acral DM skin lesions are poorly characterized.Methods: We reviewed 50 acral biopsies from 46 DM patients and assessed numerous histopathologic features. The majority of biopsies (42/50; 84%) were sampled from either Gottron papules or signs. We compared histopathologic features in acral biopsies to those in 197 non-acral DM skin biopsies. We also compared histopathologic features in acral biopsies based on the presence of various clinical features.Results: Interface dermatitis, dyskeratotic keratinocytes, and superficial perivascular inflammation were common in DM acral biopsies. However, the absence of > 1 hallmark histopathologic feature (interface dermatitis, dyskeratosis, dermal mucin) was relatively common (56%). The presence of all three hallmark histopathologic features was significantly more likely in non-acral compared with acral DM biopsies (68% vs. 44%; p = 0.0021). The hallmark histopathologic feature most commonly lacking in acral compared with non-acral biopsies was increased dermal mucin. Histopathologic features in acral biopsies did not significantly differ based on acral location, DM subtype, therapeutic regimen, or myositis-associated/myositis-specific antibody status.Conclusions: Pathologists should recognize that acral biopsies in DM patients may lack hallmark histopathologic features commonly seen in biopsies from non-acral locations.","PeriodicalId":15407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cutaneous Pathology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142927245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cutaneous manifestations of BRAF and BRAF/MEK therapies have been well documented, but neutrophilic panniculitis remains a less common complication with fewer case reports. Physician awareness of this complication when following patients on similar targeted therapies can decrease delays in appropriate management. We report a case of one patient who developed neutrophilic panniculitis during treatment with the BRAF/MEK combination of dabrafenib and trametinib. We followed the patient from initial presentation in the emergency department to diagnosis to include pathology findings of the disease. In this case of neutrophilic panniculitis, the patient presented with a history of stage IIIa (pT2a N1a M0) cutaneous melanoma of the right flank and developed classic painful nodules on the lower legs and arms with associated fever within the first 2 weeks after initiating adjuvant melanoma targeted therapy. The biopsies showed a mixed, neutrophilic panniculitis, without overlying epidermal changes. Given the patient's clinical history, the biopsy was consistent with a BRAF inhibitor induced neutrophilic panniculitis. The panniculitis resolved with symptomatic care and the patient was maintained on the antitumor therapies.","PeriodicalId":15407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cutaneous Pathology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142927247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dedifferentiated and transdifferentiated melanomas (DTM) are defined as melanomas which have lost conventional melanocytic morphologic and immunohistochemical features, showing sarcomatous morphology and/or immunohistochemical staining of other cell lineages, and as such, can be mistaken for other entities such as collision tumors and undifferentiated spindle cell tumors. In this series, we highlight the utility of preferentially expressed antigen in melanomas (PRAME) in diagnosing undifferentiated/dedifferentiated melanomas. Case 1 is a lentigo maligna melanoma with dedifferentiation on the scalp of an 85-year-old. Case 2 is a desmoplastic melanoma with leiomyosarcomatous transdifferentiation on the cheek of an 80-year-old. Case 3 is a desmoplastic melanoma with rhabdomyosarcomatous transdifferentiation arising from the temple of an 88-year-old. In all cases, conventional melanocytic immunohistochemical markers were positive in the conventional melanoma and negative in the dedifferentiated/transdifferentiated areas. However, PRAME was positive in both the conventional and dedifferentiated areas with varying intensity. Although PRAME immunoreactivity can be seen in other malignant spindle cell tumors, this study highlights the potential utility of PRAME immunohistochemistry when considering a diagnosis of DTM.","PeriodicalId":15407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cutaneous Pathology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142921831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

WT-1 was strongly expressed, prompting RNA-based next generation sequencing for gene fusions, which identified the CIC:DUX4 [t(19;4)(19q13.2;4q35.2)]. A novel IRAK3:HMGA2 fusion was also identified.

She experienced multiple distant metastases, involving the lungs, liver, thyroid, stomach, ovary, bones, and skin, along with multiple lymph node metastases within 1 year. The patient succumbed to the disease 1 year and 6 months following the first excision. Histopathological examination revealed a dense distribution of large solid nests comprising large, atypical epithelioid melanocytes with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm in the upper dermis. Diffuse PRAME and loss of p16 immunoexpression profiles were observed. Targeted DNA and Sanger sequencing revealed an in-frame MAD1L1(e16)::BRAF(e9) fusion in both primary tumor and metastatic subcutaneous lesion. A review of previously reported cases confirmed as Spitz melanoma with distant metastases (n = 7) revealed a broad age range (11-71 years, median 46 years), high mortality (5/7), frequent BRAF fusions (6/7), and recurrent TERT promotor mutations and CDKN2A/B deletions.
