Özet

Biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma (BSNS), previously known as low-grade sinonasal sarcoma, is a rare tumour of the sinonasal tract, first described in 2012. It involves both myogenic and neural differentiation and is characterized by PAX3 rearrange-ment. MAML3 is the most frequent fusion partner of PAX3; however, its partner remains unidentified in a subset of cases. These tumours have significant local recur-rence rates but lack metastatic potential. Here, we report a case of BSNS with PAX3/ FOXO1 fusion and discuss its clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis.
