Nice Example of STAT6 nuclear positivity in a WHO grade III Solitary Fibrous Tumor/Hemangiopericytoma
STAT6 immunostaining shows strong nuclear positivity among tumor cells, while the cytoplasm is uniformly negative. STAT6 nuclear immunoreactivity has been reported as a surrogate marker for the NAB2-STAT6 gene fusion, which is the defining driver mutation of solitary fibrous tumor/hemangiopericytoma.
