From epistaxis to bone pain-report of two cases illustrating the clinicopathological spectrum of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour with fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 immunohistochemical and cytogenetic analyses.
By contrast, 121 cases of potential morphologic mimics (belonging to 13 tumor types) rarely expressed FGFR1, the main exceptions being solitary fibrous tumors (positive in 40%), chondroblastomas (40%), and giant cell tumors of bone (38%), suggesting a possible role for FGFR1 immunohistochemistry in the diagnosis of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor.
