<span style="color:#0070C0">(''General Instructions – The focus of these pages is the clinically significant genetic alterations in each disease type. This is based on up-to-date knowledge from multiple resources such as PubMed and the WHO classification books. The CCGA is meant to be a supplemental resource to the WHO classification books; the CCGA captures in a continually updated wiki-stye manner the current genetics/genomics knowledge of each disease, which evolves more rapidly than books can be revised and published. If the same disease is described in multiple WHO classification books, the genetics-related information for that disease will be consolidated into a single main page that has this template (other pages would only contain a link to this main page). Use [https://www.genenames.org/ <u>HUGO-approved gene names and symbols</u>] (italicized when appropriate), [https://varnomen.hgvs.org/ <u>HGVS-based nomenclature for variants</u>], as well as generic names of drugs and testing platforms or assays if applicable. Please complete tables whenever possible and do not delete them (add N/A if not applicable in the table and delete the examples); to add (or move) a row or column in a table, click nearby within the table and select the > symbol that appears. Please do not delete or alter the section headings. The use of bullet points alongside short blocks of text rather than only large paragraphs is encouraged. Additional instructions below in italicized blue text should not be included in the final page content. Please also see'' </span><u>''[[Author_Instructions]]''</u><span style="color:#0070C0"> ''and [[Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)|<u>FAQs</u>]] as well as contact your [[Leadership|<u>Associate Editor</u>]] or [mailto:CCGA@cancergenomics.org <u>Technical Support</u>].)''</span>

Gene Rearrangements

BRAF gene fusions are identified in approximately 33% of myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcoma (MIFS) cases.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Multiple fusion partners have been described, including TOM1L2, SND1, ZNF335, TRIM24, and ROBO1. In addition, TGFBR3-OGA (MGEA5) rearrangements, resulting from the t(1;10)(p22;q24) translocation, are detected in approximately 32% of cases.[1][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] YAP1::MAML2 fusions are characteristic of the “nodular necrotizing” variant of MIFS and can co-exist with BRAF fusions.[1][15] More recently, several novel fusions have been described, including RRAGB::CCNB3, FGFR1::ZBTB47, SEC23IP::VGLL3, and TEAD1::MRTFB.[1][3]
