Whole-exome sequencing reveals the etiology of the rare primary hepatic mucoepidermoid carcinoma

Abstract Background Primary hepatic mucoepidermoid carcinoma (HMEC) is extremely rare and the molecular etiology is still unknown. The CRTC1-MAML2 fusion gene was previously detected in a primary HMEC, which is often associated with MEC of salivary gland in the literature. Methods A 64-year-old male...
