摘要: NUT midline carcinoma (NMC) is a rare neoplasm with poor prognosis and involving mostly young patients. Here we describe classic NMC BRD4-NUT fusion gene in middle-aged woman. We also analyzed some biological features that could potentially influence its clinical behavior such as HPV infection, EWSR1 rearrangement, the status of EGFR gene.
