Palmer Nodular Fasciitis Harboring a Novel SREBF1::USP6 Fusion Gene.

The diagnosis of low-grade fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumors of acral sites can be challenging. These tumors encompass a diverse group of neoplasms with a spectrum of biologic potential ranges from benign to overtly malignant. They often demonstrate significant clinical, radiologic, and immunophenotypic overlap, in which the molecular phenotype may play an important diagnostic role to arrive at the final diagnosis. Herein, we report a case of soft tissue mass lesion presented on the palm of an adult patient for four months. Histologically, the tumor consisted of primarily low-grade spindle cells expressing smooth muscle actin. Molecular testing revealed a novel SREBF1::USP6 fusion gene, confirming the final diagnosis of nodular fasciitis and ultimately expanding its molecular profile. This case highlights the diagnostic value of single, cost-effective, targeted molecular panel to arrive at an accurate diagnosis and provide helpful therapeutic information.
