Two years later the patient developed lymphadenopathy, which was biopsied and sent for the tissue of origin testing. Results revealed a sarcoma with 90% certainty, primitive neuroectodermal tumor subtype. The original pancreatic tumor was sent for next-generation sequencing, which revealed an EWSR1/FLI1 fusion as the sole genetic mutation suggestive of an underlying Ewing sarcoma. Additionally, the same fusion gene was detected on the supraclavicular lymph node biopsy.... view moreĀ»
