Abstract
Loss of different components of the Switch/sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex has been increasingly recognized as a central molecular event driving the initiation and/or dedifferentiation of mostly lethal but histogenetically diverse neoplasms in different body organs. This review summarizes and discusses the morphologic and phenotypic diversity of primary soft tissue neoplasms characterized by SWI/SNF complex deficiency with an emphasis on convergent and divergent cytoarchitectural patterns.Entities:
