Tissue microarrays: what will they bring to molecular and anatomic pathology?

abstract：:Alveolar soft-part sarcoma (ASPS) is one of the most unusual of the soft tissue sarcomas. Although it most commonly arises in the fascial planes or skeletal muscles of the lower extremities in adults, and in the head and neck region in children, it has also been documented in extraskeletal muscle locations, especially...
