<nowiki>*</nowiki>Sarcomas are very rare (1%) in adults but more prevalent (15-20%) in pediatrics.  The classification of UPS comprises only 3-8% of sarcomas and is primarily a cancer of advanced age.  Even though UPS-B presents at a younger age, it is extremely rare, especially so in pediatrics. <ref>Saoud C, Gundem G, Vanderbilt CM, Wexler LH, Reed DR, Tap W, Singer S, Villafania LB, Papaemmanouil E, Benhamida J, Bale TA, Antonescu CR.

* An iliac bone/soft tissue mass from a 13yr old male was submitted with a differential diagnosis of OS, MFS, LS, FS, UPHGS.  FISH and microarray analyses demonstrated FISH negative for split signal using SS18, EWSR1 and BCOR probes, but CN gain of x4-10, x3-6 and x2-5 respectively. CMA/SNP demonstrated a highly heterogeneous/complex karyotype including multiple structural and CN gain/loss (including deletion 17p13 TP53), chromothripsis 11 chromosomes/regions (including entire chromosomes 3,17,18,22), LOH 11 chromosomes/regions (including entire chromosome 13) and amplification 6 chromosomes/regions (including 11q22 YAP1 and apoptosis inhibitors BIRC3, BIRC2). <ref>Sutcliffe, Maxine J.; et al.
