In the past, BCOR-CCNB3 sarcoma was believed to be comparable to Ewing's sarcoma; however, current research has proven that it is, in reality, a distinct type of the illness, now classified as a distinct entity under undifferentiated round cell sarcomas. This tumour most frequently affects teenagers and young adults, and it is more prevalent in men. It can form in both bone and soft tissue, and it appears most frequently in the pelvis, lower extremities, and paraspinal region.
