I have a PDGFB::COL1A1 fusion.

I am CD34+

Be careful because I may undergo fibrosarcomatous transformation

Who am I?

Look out - it's the myxoid, MUC4-positive variant of superficial CD34-positive fibroblastic tumor (PRDM10-rearranged soft tissue tumor) #BSTpath

I am characterized by an t(X;18) translocation.

I can occur in any part of the body and be monophonic or biphasic.

The cell of origin is still under debate.

Who am I? 🤔
