Abstract
Described here is the use of detecting TLS/FUS-CHOP fusion transcripts to confirm the diagnosis of a myxoid liposarcoma by nested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assay using archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues of a young man with a benign-looking myxoid tumor on his upper extremity, which is often misdiagnosed clinically or histopathologically as a benign tumor.
