Figure 2 Histologic and immunohistochemical features of SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated carcinoma from endoscopic biopsy (Case 1)(A) Hematoxylin and eosin staining shows a poorly cohesive malignant tumor composed of round-to-epithelioid cells with solid growth pattern and no evidence of glandular or squamous differentiation. (B) The tumor cells are negative for cytokeratin (AE1/AE3). (C) Immunohistochemistry reveals complete loss of BRG1 expression in tumor cells, with retained expression in background stromal elements.
