Methylation profiling of enchondromas with and without IDH1 mutations

ABSTRACT: Ollier disease and Maffucci syndrome are non-hereditary skeletal disorderscharacterized by multiple enchondromas (Ollier disease) combined with spindle cellhemangiomas (Maffucci syndrome). Somatic heterozygous IDH1 (R132C and R132H) orIDH2 (R172S) mutations were found in 87% of enchondromas, benign cartilage tumors,as well as in 70% of spindle cell hemangiomas, benign vascular lesions. In total, 35 of 43(81%) patients with Ollier disease and 10 of 13 (77%) patients with Maffucci syndromecarried IDH1 (98%) or rarely IDH2 (2%) mutations in their tumors. Fourteen patientswith multiple tumors at different anatomic locations displayed identical mutations inseparate lesions. Since in other tumor types the presence of an IDH1 mutation is strongly associated withhypermethylation 26, 27, we assesse
