"Both cases harbored a PP6R3::USP6 fusion and intriguingly amplification of the fused allele xref – xref ."

"In the literature there are two cases reported with a PPP6R3::USP6 fusion and typical morphology of a nodular fasciitis but with a malignant transformation [ xref , xref ] ."

"In the literature, we encountered two cases with malignant clinical course. xref , xref In contrast to our case, both showed classical histologic features of NF and a PPP6R3USP6 fusion with additional amplification suggesting that this specific amplified fusion gene is causative for the aggressive clinical course of the disease."

"For example, a PPP6R3-USP6 fusion gene with amplification has been observed in rare cases of malignant NF, suggesting that this genetic alteration may confer malignant potential."

sparser
"This case illustrates a rare and challenging presentation of histologically benign but clinically malignant nodular fasciitis, associated with a PPP6R3-USP6 fusion and ERBB2 mutation."
