Does the type of SYT-SSX fusion transcript correlate with morphology and prognosis in synovial sarcoma?
SYT-SSX fusion transcripts serve as defining diagnostic markers and provide independent prognostic information for synovial sarcoma.
The type of SYT-SSX fusion transcript correlates with both the histologic subtype and the clinical behavior of synovial sarcoma. SYT-SSX fusion transcripts are a defining diagnostic marker of synovial sarcomas and may also yield important independent prognostic information.
