However, the transformed MSC cells and standard osteosarcoma cell lines maintained their tri-lineage differentiation capacity. The inability of the transformed pOB cell line to undergo adipogenic differentiation, may suggest that osteosarcoma is derived from a cell intermediate in differentiation between an MSC and a pOB, with partial commitment to the osteoblastic lineage.

ES/PNET is frequently misdiagnosed because of its similarity with small cell carcinoma. Although gastric ES/PNET is very rare, it should be included in differential diagnoses of small round cell tumor in the stomach.

After expert consultation and additional immunohistochemical stains for muscle markers, a diagnosis was rendered of primary rhabdomyosarcoma arising in association with a pituitary adenoma. Despite its rarity, a high index of suspicion for rhabdomyosarcoma arising within a pituitary adenoma should be maintained in cases of atypical pituitary adenoma with a stromal response.

- |||||||||| Review, Journal: Targeted therapy for soft tissue sarcomas in adolescents and young adults. (Pubmed Central) - Apr 16, 2017
Over the last two decades, our understanding of the biology of STSs is slowly increasing, allowing for the development of more targeted therapies. We review the new treatment modalities that have been tested on patients with STSs, with a special focus on adolescents and young adults, a group of patients that is often underrepresented in clinical trials and has not received the dedicated attention it deserves, given the significant differences in biology and treatment response in comparison to children and adults.
