Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features, immunophenotype and molecule characteristics of EWSR1::CREM fusion malignant epithelioid neoplasm in soft tissue.Methods:The clinical and pathological data of 2 cases of EWSR1::CREM fusion malignant epithelioid neoplasm in soft tissue diagnosed at the Department of Pathology, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Beijing, China from May 2023 to May 2024 were analyzed. Immunohistochemical study, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and next generation sequencing (NGS) were performed. Relevant literature was reviewed.Results:There were one male and one female patients, aged 35 and 29 years, respectively. The tumors developed in the somatic soft tissue, including calf and chest wall, and were 6.0 and 6.2 cm in size, respectively. The imaging studies suggested space-occupying lesions in muscle tissue. Case 1 did not involve the bone, while Case 2 showed fracture of the 8th rib. Microscopically, a fibrous pseudocapsule surrounded by lymphocytes and plasma cells was identified. The tumors were composed of small to medium-sized round and short spindle-shaped cells, showing nodular or sheet-like pattern. The tumor cells showed round nuclear outline, coarse chromatin with prominent nucleoli. Immunohistochemically, tumor cells showed diffuse positivity of ALK (D5F3), MUM1 and Syn, focal or patchy positivity of CKpan, EMA, S-100, NSE, WT-1 and SMA, and a high Ki-67 index (20%-30%). FISH demonstrated break-apart signals of EWSR1 gene in the 2 cases. NGS revealed EWSR1::CREM gene fusion. Case 2 showed an ATRX gene mutation. The two patients were free of recurrence or metastasis at the 10-month and 1-month follow-up, respectively.Conclusions:EWSR1::CREM fusion malignant epithelioid neoplasm is rare and lacks distinctive morphological and immunohistochemical features. FISH and NGS can help make a definitive diagnosis.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of detecting MDM2 gene amplification by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in low-grade osteosarcoma (LGOS).Methods:Thirty cases of parosteal osteosarcoma (POS) and 14 cases of low-grade central osteosarcoma (LGCOS) from April 2009 to August 2022 at Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University were analyzed for the presence of MDM2 gene amplification by FISH. Fifty-eight additional cases were used as negative controls (including 28 cases of fibrous dysplasia, 5 cases of giant cell tumor, 4 cases of conventional osteosarcoma, 2 cases each of periosteal osteosarcoma, reparative changes after fracture, pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma, low grade myofibroblastic sarcoma, fibrous dysplasia with malignant transformation, one case each of leiomyosarcoma, sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, desmoplastic fibroma of bone, solitary fibrous tumor, aneurysmal bone cyst, clear cell chondrosarcoma, osteofibrous dysplasia, and 3 cases of unclassified spindle cell tumor).Results:Among the 30 patients with POS, 15 were male and 15 were female, ranging in age from 10 to 59 years (mean 35 years, median 30.5 years). Among the 14 patients with LGCOS, four were male and 10 were female, ranging in age from 15 to 56 years (mean 37 years, median 36 years). All except one case were successfully detected by FISH. MDM2 gene amplification was detected in 27 cases of POS (27/29,91.3%) and 8 cases of LGCOS (8/14). All the negative controls were negative for MDM2 gene amplification. The positive rate of MDM2 gene amplification was significantly different between the case group and the control group ( P<0.05). The sensitivity and specificity of MDM2 gene amplification in diagnosing POS and LGCOS were 91.3% and 100.0%; and 57.1% and 100.0%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of MDM2 gene amplification in diagnosing LGOS (including POS and LGCOS) were 81.3% and 100.0%, respectively. In cases where MDM2 gene was amplified, the MDM2 amplified signal was clustered. Nine cases showed increased CEP12 signal different from polyploidy which was displayed as small and weak signal points or cloud flocculent and cluster signals. Conclusions:Detection of MDM2 gene amplification by FISH is a highly sensitive and specific marker for LGOS. The interpretation criteria for FISH detection of MDM2 amplification are currently not unified. The signal characteristics need more attention when interpreting.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application of EWSR1 gene rearrangement by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in bone and soft tissue tumors and to analyze the cases with atypical signal pattern.Methods:The cases detected for EWSR1 gene rearrangement by FISH in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from 2014 to 2021 were collected, and the value of detecting EWSR1 gene rearrangement for diagnosing bone and soft tissue tumors was analyzed. The cases with atypical positive signals were further analyzed by next generation sequencing (NGS).Results:FISH using EWSR1 break-apart probe kit was successfully performed in 97% (205/211) of cases, 6 cases failed. Four of the 6 failures were due to improper decalcification, 1 case due to signal overlap caused by thick slices, and 1 case due to signal amplification and disorder. EWSR1 gene rearrangements were positive in 122 cases (122/205, 59%), atypical positive signal in 8 cases (8/205, 4%), and negative in 75 cases (75/205, 37%). In cases testing positive, the percentage of positive cells ranged from 34% to 98%, with 120 cases (120/122, 98%) showing a positive cell percentage greater than 50%. Among the 205 successfully tested cases, 156 cases were histologically diagnosed as Ewing′s sarcoma, of which 110 were positive (110/156, 71%), 7 were atypical positive (7/156, 4%), and 39 were negative (39/156, 25%). Nine cases were histologically diagnosed as clear cell sarcoma of soft tissue, of which 6 were positive (6/9), 1 was atypical positive (1/9), and 2 were negative (2/9). Five cases were histologically diagnosed as extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma, of which 2 were positive (2/5) and 3 were negative (3/5). Three cases were histologically diagnosed as angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma, of which 2 were positive (2/3) and 1 was negative (1/3). Two cases were histologically diagnosed as myoepithelioma of soft tissue, of which 1 was positive (1/2) and 1 was negative (1/2). One case was histologically diagnosed as olfactory neuroblastoma with a positive result. The 29 other tumor cases including osteosarcoma, synovial sarcoma, and malignant melanoma and others were all negative. Basing on histology as the standard for diagnosis and considering atypical positive cases as negative, comparing with the 29 cases of other tumors as control group, the sensitivity for diagnosing Ewing′s sarcoma through the detection of EWSR1 gene rearrangement was 71%, and the specificity was 100%; the sensitivity for diagnosing clear cell sarcoma of soft tissue was 67%, and the specificity was 100%; the sensitivity for diagnosing extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma was 40%, and the specificity was 100%; the sensitivity for diagnosing angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma was 67%, and the specificity was 100%; the sensitivity for diagnosing myoepithelioma of soft tissue was 50%, and the specificity was 100%; the sensitivity for diagnosing olfactory neuroblastoma was 100%, and the specificity was 100%. Four of 8 cases with atypical positive signals analyzed by NGS showed EWSR1 rearrangement, including EWSR1::FLI1 in one case of Ewing sarcoma, EWSR1::NFATC2 in one case of EWSR1::NFATC2-rearranged sarcoma, EWSR1::ATF1 in one case of clear cell sarcoma of soft tissue and EWSR1::NR4A3 in one case of extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma.Conclusions:Detection of EWSR1 rearrangement by FISH is of utmost significance in the diagnosis of bone and soft tissue tumors. Cases with atypical positive signals should be further scrutinized, correlating with their histomorphology and verifying by NGS if necessary.

Objective To investigate the current situation of skin tests for β-lactams in 155 hospitals in Beijing.Methods The questionnaires were sent to medical institutions in Beijing to statistically described the current situation of β-lactams skin test,and the relevant influencing factors were analyzed by Fisher exact test,and Chi-square test.Results A total of 3 097 questionnaires were received from 155 medical institutions,of which 3 057 were valid questionnaires(effective rate is 98.71％).In this study,122 hospitals conducted skin test before using intravenous penicillins,accounting for 99.19％of 123 hospitals with intravenous penicillins.Hospitals with infectious disease pharmacists conducted more skin tests before using intravenous penicillins(98.59％vs 88.46％,P＜0.001),and some hospitals didn't conduct skin tests before using oral penicillins.Seventy hospitals(45.16％)had not yet cancelled skin tests for cephalosporins,more hospitals with infectious disease pharmacists cancelled routine skin test(59.74％vs 50.00％,P＜0.05),and more tertiary hospitals cancelled cephalosporin skin test(80.65％vs 51.40％,29.41％,all P＜0.01).After the promulgation of the"Guiding Principle for Skin Test of β-lactams(2021 edition)",more primary hospitals have developed or updated the rules or regulation for skin test of β-lactams according to the Guiding Principle,compared with secondary hospitals(72.22％vs 41.18％,P＜0.05).Hospitals with infectious disease pharmacists developed or updated the rules or regulation for skin test of β-lactams in their hospitals(78.57％vs 60.00％,P＜0.05).Infectious disease pharmacists had promoting effect on the publicity of the rules or regulation of skin test in the hospital(92.65％vs 80.46％,P＜0.05).Conclusion Many hospitals in Beijing have not cancelled cephalosporins skin test,and the current situation of cancelling cephalosporins skin test in tertiary hospitals is better than that in primary and secondary hospitals.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of real-time tracking and virtual reality technology(RTVI)used to assist the intraoperative alignment of the trauma orthopaedic surgery robot for the treatment of femoral neck fractures and its impact on the treatment outcome.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 patients with femoral neck fractures treated with trauma orthopedic robotic surgery from September 2020 to September 2022.Patients were divided into two groups according to whether RTVI technology was used during surgery to assist robotic surgery.There were 28 patients in the RTVI group(12 males and 16 females),with an average age of(46.2±9.3)years old ranging from 28 to 60 years old.There were 32 patients in the simple Tianji surgical robot group,including 15 males and 17 females,aged(48.2±7.8)years old ranging from 32 to 58.The number of registered fluoroscopy,operation time,total number of intraoperative fluoroscopy,intraoperative blood loss,and hospitalization time of the two groups of patients were observed and recorded.All patients received regular follow-up after surgery,and hip X-rays were routinely reviewed to record Garden alignment index,fracture healing time,postoperative complications,and Harris score.Results All 60 patients were followed up.The RTVI group was followed up for 9 to 16 months with an average of(13.0±l.2)months,and the Tianji surgical robot group alone was followed up for 10 to 14 months with an average of(12.0±1.3)months.During the follow-up period,the femoral neck fractures of both groups of patients healed well,and no complications such as internal fixation loosening and incision infection occurred.The number of registered fluoroscopy,operation time,and number of intraoperative fluoroscopy of patients in the RTVI group were significantly better than those in the simple Tianji surgical robot group(P＜0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay,Garden alignment index,fracture healing time,and hip Harris score between two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Although RTVI technology assisted by the surgical robot for femoral neck fracture surgery has little impact on its postoperative outcome,it can effectively reduce the operating time,the number of intraoperative X-ray projections,and the risk of intraopera-tive radiation exposure to patients.It also shortened the learning curve of the operator and better reflected the precision and ef-ficiency of the trauma orthopaedic surgery robot.
