Background

Desmoplastic Small Round Blue Cell Tumor (DSRCT) originates from a cell with multilineage potential. A molecular hallmark of DSCRT is the EWS-WT1 reciprocal translocation. Ewing’s and DSRCT
are treated similarly due to similar oncogene activation pathways and DSRCT has been represented in very limited numbers in sarcoma studies.
