Clinical Information
Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test

Chromosomal rearrangement involving the OGA (previously MGEA5) gene or the TGFBR3 gene have recently been associated with both pleomorphic hyalinizing angiectatic tumor of soft parts and hemosiderotic fibrolipomatous tumor. Either one or both rearrangements may be present and support a diagnosis in the proper clinical and pathologic context. Rearrangement of one or both genes may be present in other neoplastic processes and is not diagnostic in isolation. These rearrangements are unusual in that they do not result specific RNA transcript products and therefore are often not detectable through many next-generation sequencing approaches but can typically be detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization testing.

Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

An interpretive report will be provided.

Interpretation
Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results

The result is considered positive when the percent of cells with separation of the OGA and/or TGFBR3 FISH probes with an abnormality exceeds the normal cutoff for the OGA and/or TGFBR3 FISH probe set.

 

A positive result suggests rearrangement of the OGA and/or TGFBR3 gene and likely reflects OGA and/or TGFBR3 fusion with a partner gene. The significance of this finding is dependent on the clinical and pathologic features.

 

The result is considered negative when the percent of cells with separation of the OGA and/or TGFBR3 FISH probes does not exceed the normal cutoff for the OGA or TGFBR3 FISH probe set.

 

A negative result does not exclude the presence of a OGA or TGFBR3 rearrangement.

 

Rearrangement of the OGA or TGFBR3 gene may be present in other neoplastic processes.

Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances

This test is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, and it is best used as an adjunct to existing clinical and pathologic information.

 

Fixatives other than formalin (eg, Prefer, Bouin's) may not be successful for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assays. Non-formalin fixed specimens will not be rejected.

 

Paraffin-embedded tissues that have been decalcified may not be successful for FISH analysis. The success rate of FISH studies on decalcified tissue is approximately 50%.

 

FISH studies will be attempted if sufficient tumor is present for analysis. If insufficient tissue/tumor is available for testing, the pathologist reviewing the hematoxylin and eosin-stained slide may find it necessary to cancel testing.

 

If no FISH signals are observed post-hybridization, the case will be released indicating a lack of FISH results.

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference

The test is performed using laboratory-developed TGFBR3 (1p22) and OGA (10q24) dual-color break-apart strategy probes. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues are cut at 5 microns and mounted on positively charged glass slides. The selection of tissue and the identification of target areas on the hematoxylin and eosin (H and E)-stained slide are performed by a pathologist. Using the H and E-stained slide as a reference, target areas are etched with a diamond-tipped engraving tool on the back of the unstained slide to be assayed. The probe set is hybridized to the appropriate target areas, and 2 technologists independently analyze 50 interphase nuclei (100 total) with the results expressed as the percent of abnormal nuclei.(Unpublished Mayo method).

Day(s) Performed
Outlines the days the test is performed. This field reflects the day that the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means that assays are performed multiple times during the day.
