Immunohistochemical characterization of peritoneal inclusion cysts with squamous metaplasia
Histopathology, EarlyView.Aims Peritoneal inclusion cysts (PICs) are mesothelial‐lined cysts that can uncommonly develop squamous metaplasia. Here, we describe the immunophenotype of PICs with squamous metaplasia using a comprehensive immunohistochemical (IHC) panel. Methods and results We collected surgical excisions of PICs with squamous metaplasia from our institution and ...

Merlin immunohistochemistry is a reliable surrogate marker for NF2 gene alterations in meningioma
Histopathology, EarlyView.This study found that complete loss of Merlin immunostaining could serve as a reliable surrogate marker for NF2 gene alterations in low‐grade meningioma. We also introduce some pitfalls in the interpretation of its staining pattern. Aims Molecular characterization as well as histologic grading has proven useful in predicting the biological behaviour of
