A 60-year-old man had a malignant left lower lung tumour with no metastases and underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic left lower lobectomy and lymphadenectomy. Pathological examination led to a diagnosis of capicua transcriptional repressor (CIC)-rearranged sarcoma. He has had 3.5 years of recurrence-free survival. CIC-rearranged sarcoma is a Ewing-like sarcoma that shows pathological findings similar to Ewing sarcoma. Most of CIC-rearranged sarcoma is CIC-double homeobox 4 protein (DUX4) fusion. Pulmonary CIC-rearranged sarcoma is extremely rare and has an unfavourable prognosis. However, complete resection can produce prognosis of long-term survival, and thus, surgery is an important option.
一位 60 岁男性患有无转移的恶性左下肺肿瘤,接受了电视辅助胸腔镜左下肺叶切除术和淋巴结切除术。病理检查提示为帽状转录阻遏物(CIC)重排肉瘤。他无复发生存 3.5 年。CIC 重排肉瘤是一种类似于尤文肉瘤的 Ewing 样肉瘤,具有与尤文肉瘤相似的病理表现。大多数 CIC 重排肉瘤为 CIC-双同源盒 4 蛋白(DUX4)融合。肺部 CIC 重排肉瘤极为罕见,预后不良。然而,完全切除可产生长期生存的预后,因此手术是一种重要的选择。
