ERCC1 expression correlated with EGFR and clinicopathological variables in patients with non‐small cell lung cancer. An immunocytochemical study on fine‐needle aspiration biopsies samples

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Pneumologia, 2014
Purpose: Expression of ERCC1 has not been well described in fine‐needle aspiration biopsies (FNABs) in patients with non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Photo Quiz: Globose Yeast‐Like Forms With Multiple Peripheral Buds in Urine and Cervical Cytology

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 26‐year‐old immunocompetent woman with a history of noninvasive, low‐grade papillary urothelial carcinoma presented with persistent upper abdominal pain. Urine cytology, performed for bladder tumor surveillance, revealed globose, yeast‐like forms (10–30 μm) with thick walls and multiple narrowly attached peripheral buds in a “ship wheel ...

Fine‐Needle Aspiration of Salivary Gland Tumors With Low‐Grade Oncocytic Features: Focusing on Oncocytoma Versus Oncocytic Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Salivary gland fine‐needle aspirates (FNAs) with low‐grade oncocytic features are diagnostically challenging due to the substantial morphologic overlap between benign oncocytic tumors and their malignant mimickers. This study evaluates the diagnostic discriminators, performance, and risk of malignancy of these lesions using the ...

Clinical, Radiologic and Cytologic Predictors of Malignancy in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules: Insights From a 26‐Year Cohort Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Thyroid nodules are less common but more often malignant in pediatric patients than in adults. Our objectives were to study the features of benign vs. malignant thyroid nodules in a large pediatric patient cohort. Methods Retrospective observational cohort study. Consecutive patients aged 0.01–17.9 years at evaluation between 1997–

Strain and Shear Wave Elastography in Thyroid Nodules: Tissue Stiffness as a Complementary Risk Marker for Differentiating Benign, Indeterminate, and Malignant Cytology

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and strain elastography (SE) as complementary techniques to conventional B‐mode ultrasound for differentiating benign, indeterminate, and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional study included 208 thyroid nodules evaluated using B‐mode

Viability of Tumor Cells in Bone Dust: Implications for Oncologic Skull Base Surgery

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck tumors with skull base involvement may require drilling of tumor infiltrated bone. We hypothesize that bone dust generated during this process contains viable tumor cells that may seed the surgical field. Methods Tumors with gross bone invasion were drilled, and dust was collected for H&E, cell viability analysis, and ...

Improving the Accuracy of Papillary Thyroid Cancer Pathological Evaluation With Digital PCR Detection of the BRAF V600E Mutation

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study developed a highly sensitive and specific digital PCR assay for BRAF V600E mutation detection in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). The increased sensitivity of BRAF mutation detection directly led to more accurate pathological diagnosis of PTC and in turn improved clinical care in patients with limited sample availability or in samples with ...
