In addition to improvements in diagnosis and potentially the stratification of patients for risk, biological investigations of these gene fusions may define targets for much needed therapeutic strategies to eliminate minimal residual disease or metastatic disease. Insight into their relation with other oncogenic events in ESFT will advance risk group analysis and ultimately may improve clinical management and survival for patients with this disease.}, issn = {0021-9746}, URL = {https://jcp.bmj.com/content/56/2/96}, eprint = {https://jcp.bmj.com/content/56/2/96.full.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Clinical Pathology} }
