Background and objective Pre-eclampsia eclampsia are common complications in pregnancy, they lead to uteroplacental vascular insufficiency. More than 38% of pregnant women succumb seizures without meeting the clinical criteria for pre-eclampsia or eclampsia. This highlights importance a confirmatory diagnosis using histopathological changes seen placenta. Hence, present study aimed validate an scoring system placenta appropriate Material methods In this prospective spanning two years, 50...
Monitoring of frozen section diagnostic performance provides an important quality improvement measure.Surgical specimens involving a diagnosis over 3-year period were retrospectively reviewed. Glass slides reviewed on cases with discordance. Discordance and deferral rates calculated.Of 3,675 diagnoses included, 96 (2.7%) discordant the final diagnosis. Additionally, 114 (3.1%) deferred. The organ-specific discordance lowest in breast genitourinary highest for pancreas, lymph node,...
Primary lung cancer is the leading cause of death in United States. Most cancers are diagnosed an outpatient setting, but a subset requires intraoperative diagnosis. Two diagnostic methods available, frozen section (FS) and fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. This study compares FNA cytology FS based diagnosis thoracic malignancies within same clinical practice.Pathology reports from or (January 2017-December 2019) were reviewed. Resection was gold standard. If unavailable, concurrent...
Dysgerminoma is the most common malignant germ cell tumor (MGCT) of ovary. It originates from primitive cells that lack specific differentiation.[1][1] usually pure, but can be mixed with other types MGCT. Typically, patients are children and young women a median age 22
Introduction: Anaphylaxis is a fatal condition that can be easily managed if discovered early. Only few examples of anaphylaxis-like reactions caused by heparin have been documented, and immediate-type hypersensitivity to are extremely uncommon. Case Presentation: We report case 53-year-old gentleman known an End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) on Hemodialysis for two years, who went the dialysis facility in his usual state health. After hours dialysis, new lock taurolidine/heparin was installed;...
Steroid cell tumors are a small group of ovarian sex cord stromal composed entirely cells with morphologic features indicative steroid hormone secretion, accounting for less than 0.1% all tumors. It is hypothesized that these neoplasms arise from normal hormone-
Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare systemic inflammatory that involves the excessive production of proinflammatory cytokines. Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) life-threatening immune-mediated disorder can be primary or secondary to malignancy, infections, and autoimmune diseases. We present an interesting case young female with adult-onset commenced during pregnancy. Whole-body fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET)/computed (CT) scan showed diffuse...
Tuberculous septic arthritis is a rare type of that caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, it can lead to devastating complications if not diagnosed and treated correctly. We hereby report 41-year-old female with no medical history who presented three-week right hip pain inability bear weight, found have moderate severe tenderness at the anterior gluteal area limitation joint movement. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed features synovitis anteromedial posteromedial small...
Phyllodes tumor (PT) is a rare fibroepithelial lesion of the breast with variable malignant potential. Black women have higher incidence related benign tumor, fibroadenoma, but there are limited epidemiological data on PT. The aim our study was to evaluate race-related differences in clinicopathologic features and outcomes PT.Our institutional pathology database queried for specimen reports from 01/2009 10/2019 identify patients pathologic diagnosis Chart review detailed slide were performed...
Abstract Although rare, breast CLL/SLL should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a mass. A high index suspicion is needed to differentiate this neoplasm from more common carcinomas like solid variant invasive lobular carcinoma.
Clear cell carcinoma of the uterine corpus is a rare high-grade malignant epithelial tumor which accounts for <10% endometrial carcinomas. Patients are typically elderly with median age 67 years.[1][1] The most common presenting symptom post-menopausal bleeding. On imaging, similar to
Endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is a rare restrictive cardiomyopathy in non-tropical areas. It seen most of the patients living or coming from tropical areas, and rarely who have never visited these characterized by fibrotic thickening endocardium, predominantly affecting ventricular apices inflow tracts. Although thrombus formation known complication various cardiac conditions such as atrial fibrillation, flutter, heart disease, patent foramen ovale, occurrence bilateral EMF exceptionally...
Background: Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES) is a clinico-radiological diagnosis, characterized by distinctive neuroimaging features and non-specific neurological symptoms including: visual disturbances, altered consciousness, headache seizures. The alterations are reversible predominantly posterior in the parieto-occipital region. PRES classically suspected patients with severe hypertension, renal failure, autoimmune disorders, eclampsia, or immunosuppressant medications....
An immigrant woman in her 60s with a complex medical history and remote occupational exposure to patients tuberculosis (TB) presented abdominal pain, early satiety, bloating weight loss. Physical exam showed distention ascites. Diagnostic paracentesis revealed low serum ascites albumin gradient elevated ascitic lymphocytic count. However, fluid cytology, bacterial mycobacterial cultures were negative. interferon-gamma release assay for TB was indeterminate. MRI of the abdomen pelvis...
Aims Metaplastic breast carcinoma (MBC) is a heterogeneous group of invasive with squamous, spindle cell, or mesenchymal elements. It may be monophasic biphasic, and often coexists no special type (IBC‐NST). Currently, there are standardized guidelines for reporting MBC, diagnostic threshold the metaplastic component not established by WHO classification. Methods Results A survey conducted from April–July 2023 gathered responses 44 pathologists worldwide. Most respondents were academic...
Elevated vitamin B12 (B12) levels are linked to an increased risk of cancers, including hematological malignancies. This study focuses on the relationship between elevated and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs): Polycythemia Vera (PV), Primary Myelofibrosis (MF), Essential Thrombocytosis (ET), Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). in MPNs is believed arise from transcobalamin I (TCI) secretion by proliferating leukocytes, leading higher serum levels. may serve as a diagnostic prognostic biomarker...
Adenoid basal carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a rare, human papillomavirus-related malignant epithelial neoplasm that reported to affect patients within age range 21 91 years (mean 64.6 years).[1][1] Typically, are asymptomatic, and grossly unremarkable
The Oncotype DX Recurrence Score (RS) predicts recurrence and chemotherapy benefit in early-stage estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer patients. Cost unavailability are 2 major disadvantages of the assay. Multiple models have been developed to predict RS.To RS based on histopathologic biomarker features, measure concordance correlation with following 3 algorithms: prognostic score, Magee0, Magee2.Breast cases available RSs were reviewed (n = 442). categories stratified by pathologic...
Primary melanoma of the antrum is a rare and aggressive disease. Diagnosis requires correlation between patient's history, tumor histopathology, immunohistochemistry. Surgery mutation-targeted treatments may improve overall survival.
