We conducted fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for NF1 and p16 deletions comparing 55 MPNSTs and 35 non-MPNSTs, consisting of 9 synovial sarcomas (SSs), 8 leiomyosarcomas (LMSs), 10 myxofibrosarcomas (MFSs), and 8 undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas (UPSs). This evidence concerns the gene CDKN2A and synovial sarcoma.
