[New in the current WHO classification (2020) for soft tissue sarcomas].

Eva Wardelmann1, Wolfgang Hartmann2.   

Abstract

The current WHO classification for tumors of soft tissue and bone includes numerous new entities, most often defined by novel molecular findings. In this article, we present translocation-positive tumors to broaden the spectrum of monomorphic mesenchymal neoplasias. The undifferentiated small round cell sarcomas are now assembled in their own separate chapter to underline their occurrence in both soft tissue and bone, emphasizing their morphologic, molecular, and biologic differences. Another interesting new group are tumors with GLI1 activation, which, however, have not yet been included into the WHO classification. NTRK-driven tumors present with a potential therapeutic target for several established inhibitors. Finally, there have been novel findings in rhabdomyosarcomas allowing more precise subtyping associated with different biological behavior.
