SYT-SSX1 and SYT-SSX2 fusion transcripts were tested by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction in 141 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded SS.     ///    "Moreover, SYT-SSX1 was an adverse predictor for disease-specific survival and metastasis-free survival, but had no relation to local recurrence-free survival. "    ///    "SYT-SSX1 (risk ratio [RR] = 2.032, P = 0.004), larger tumor size (RR = 1.859, P = 0.008), and aggressive F?d?ration Nationale des Centers de Lutte Contre le Cancer grade (RR = 2.094, P = 0.001) were adverse predictors for disease-specific survival. "    ///    "SYT-SSX1 and SYT-SSX2 were detected in 50 (34.5%) and 91 (64.5%) tumors, respectively. "    ///    "In conclusion, compared to SYT-SSX1, SYT-SSX2 was more frequent in Chinese patients with SS. "    ///    "Besides, SYT-SSX1 (RR = 1.859, P = 0.037), older age (RR = 1.799, P = 0.040), and aggressive International Union Against Cancer stage (RR = 3.690, P < 0.001) proved to be adverse prognostic factors for metastasis-free survival.
