Examination of Ollier Disease and Maffucci Syndrome using IDH Tiling Array

ABSTRACT: Ollier disease and Maffucci syndrome are non-hereditary skeletal disorders characterized by multiple enchondromas (Ollier) combined with spindle cell hemangiomas (Maffucci). We found somatic heterozygous IDH1 mutations (R132C and R132H) in 83% of enchondromas, benign cartilage tumors, as well as in 40% of spindle cell hemangiomas, benign vascular lesions. In total, 33 of 42 (78%) patients with Ollier disease and 7 of 13 (54%) patients with Maffucci syndrome carried a mutation in at least one of their tumors. Twelve patients with multiple tumors at different locations displayed identical mutations in separate lesions. Immunohistochemical staining for the R132H IDH1 mutant protein suggested intraneoplastic as well as somatic mosaicism. IDH1 mutations were less frequent (63%) in high grade ma
