Cytological Assessment of Metastatic Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor in Ascitic Fluid

Diagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are mesenchymal neoplasms typically arising in the stomach and small intestine and rarely involving extra‐gastrointestinal organs. While fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) offers reliable diagnosis, exfoliation of GIST cells into body fluids is exceedingly rare and diagnostically challenging.

Thyroid nodules cytopathology applying the Bethesda system with histopathological correlation

Saudi Journal of Medicine and Medical Sciences, 2018
Background: Fine-needle aspiration cytology remains a valuable screening tool for preoperative management of thyroid nodules. However, the rates of false-negative and false-positive diagnosis remain a challenge for pathologists. Objectives: To assess the

Embryonic cerebrospinal fluid pressure in fetal mice in utero: External factors pressurize the intraventricular space

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Preoperative diagnosis of a breast hydatid cyst using fine-needle aspiration cytology: a case report and review of the literature

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2012
Introduction A hydatid cyst of the breast is rare and often goes unnoticed by mammography and ultrasound. Preoperative diagnosis may be performed using fine-needle aspiration cytology, which also minimizes the risk of intraoperative rupture.

Increased 18F-FDG uptake mimicking thyroid cancer in a patient with Hashimoto's thyroiditis [PDF]

, 2018
.: We report the case of a 68-year-old patient with a known paravertebral malignant schwannoma, sent to us for postoperative staging. A combined whole-body PET/CT scan showed only poor 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the region of the primary tumor but ...

Detection of PTEN Mutations in Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsies of Indeterminate Thyroid Nodules: Impact on Diagnosis and Prognosis

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Data connecting PTEN mutations with thyroid cancer risk for indeterminate nodules remain limited due to the rare nature of these mutations. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between PTEN mutations identified in cytologically indeterminate nodules and final pathology and clinical outcomes.
