چکیده انگلیسی
The World Health Organization classification of central nervous system neoplasms (2016 update) recognizes 4 histological variants and genetically defined molecular subgroups within medulloblastoma (MB). MB with myogenic differentiation is one of the rare variants, which is usually recognized as a pattern alongside the known histological variants. Because of its rarity, less is known about its molecular landscape and importantly about its placement in the current molecular schema. We aimed to analyze this rare variant for expression of 3 immunohistochemical markers conventionally used in molecular stratification of MB. Demographic profile and imaging details with survival outcome were also analyzed. Sixty-five MB cases were molecularly stratified using immunohistochemical markers (YAP1, GAB1, β-catenin). MB with myogenic differentiation and MB cases showing variable immunoreactivity with the above 3 antibodies were further evaluated for smooth muscle actin, desmin, myogenin, and HMB45. Seven cases were categorized as MB with myogenic and/or melanotic differentiation. Age ranged from 2 to 40 years with a male-to-female ratio of 1:1.3. In 4 cases, myogenic or melanotic differentiation was evident on histology, whereas in 3, differentiation was highlighted only with muscle markers. Interestingly, all 7 cases showed variable immunoreactivity with 3 molecular markers and did not follow the conventionally accepted algorithm used for molecular stratification. Follow-up period ranged from 9 to 57 months. Overall survival revealed a varied pattern, with 3 deaths and 4 patients being alive with no evidence of disease at last follow-up. Our results provide evidence that these variants are distinct and do not align immunohistochemically with the currently recognized genetic subgroups.
