Calcifying nested stromal-epithelial tumor (CNSET) is a rare hepatic tumor that occurs in children and young adults. With <40 cases in the literature, the mechanism for tumorigenesis and the biological behavior of CNSET remain uncertain. Here, we studied the clinicopathologic and molecular genetic features of eight CNSETs. Six patients (75%) were female, and the median age at presentation was 22.5 years (range 14-34 years). The median tumor size was 14 cm (range 2.7-18 cm). All tumors had fibrous stroma that contained organoid nests of epithelioid to spindled tumor cells with moderate amounts of palely eosinophilic cytoplasm and ovoid, vesicular nuclei. Five tumors showed calcifications, and one showed lymphovascular invasion. Necrosis was absent in all. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated nuclear β-catenin expression in five of five tested tumors and focal to diffuse nuclear WT-1 positivity in five of seven. Hepatocellular markers (HepPar-1, arginase-1, and albumin in situ hybridization) and neuroendocrine markers (synaptophysin, chromogranin, and INSM1) were uniformly negative. Next-generation sequencing demonstrated CTNNB1 alterations in all seven sequenced tumors. Sanger sequencing demonstrated TERT promoter mutations in all six sequenced tumors. Clinical follow-up was available for seven patients (median duration 4.4 years; range 1.2-6.2 years): four (57%) developed metastatic disease; all four developed lung metastases; and two also had abdominal metastases. All four patients with metastatic disease also had persistent or recurrent liver tumors. Three patients with metastases were alive with disease at the most recent follow-up and one died of disease. The other three patients with available follow-up did not develop metastasis or recurrence. One tumor treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy showed no response, and another showed 90% tumor fibrosis; the latter patient remained disease-free at 6.2 years of follow-up. Our series demonstrates the presence of TERT promoter mutations and CTNNB1 alterations in all sequenced tumors and suggests that CNSET might perhaps be more aggressive than previously reported.
