Sinonasal Teratocarcinosarcoma

PIK3CA somatic mutation in sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma.

Sinonasal Teratocarcinosarcoma (SNTCS) is a rare and histologically heterogeneous tumor of uncertain origin and unknown molecular pathogenesis. Its location and aggressiveness, with frequent recurrences, high rate for metastasis and short mean survival, make SNTCS a tumor highly difficult to treat. Thus, the identification of underlying genetic changes could potentially provide successful adjuvant or alternative precision medicine treatment options for patients with this tumor.
