Intracranial myxoid mesenchymal tumor, FET::CREB fusion positive is a rare, recently described central nervous system neoplasm. It is characterized by EWSR1::CREB family transcription factor fusion, typically arises in children and adolescents, and is locally aggressive even after gross total resection. Currently, there are little data available to guide management and gauge long-term prognosis. Furthermore, there have been no reports of these lesions occurring simultaneously with other intracranial neoplasms or in patients with a history of malignancy. Here we describe the first case of a very unusual patient with intracranial myxoid mesenchymal tumor of the right lateral ventricle with a concurrent fourth ventricular ependymoma who had a remote history of Ewing sarcoma of the right fibula.

Although anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene fusions are increasingly recognized in newly classified pediatric high-grade gliomas, intracranial low-grade tumors harboring ALK rearrangements remain under characterized in the literature. Herein, we present five cases of low-grade intracranial tumors with ALK rearrangements that were diagnosed at a single institution over a continuous 24-month period. Comprehensive clinicopathological evaluation integrating morphological analysis, immunohistochemical profiling, and molecular characterization of fusion partners was performed.

Cardiac myxomas, though rare, are the most common benign cardiac tumors and may be associated with Carney Complex (CNC). Patients with CNC are at increased risk of developing recurrent myxomas, which can lead to severe complications. We report a case of a 46-year-old woman with CNC and recurrent cardiac myxomas who developed multiple embolic strokes and cerebral aneurysms.

Pulmonary mesenchymal cystic hamartoma (MCH) is an exceptionally rare benign tumor characterized by cystic-solid architecture and biphasic epithelial-mesenchymal components. We report a 56-year-old woman with a 2.6-cm right lower lobe mass, histologically composed of pseudostratified ciliated epithelium, glandular components, and primitive mesenchymal cells with cartilaginous/adipose differentiation.
