Abstract:
Abstract Apocrine metaplasia is a ubiquitous component of the mammary fibrocystic change spectrum. Although mostly associated with cysts, apocrine metaplasia can also present as a proliferative lesion, rarely with cytologic atypism. Apocrine atypia is characterized by 3-fold nuclear enlargement, multiple nucleoli, and hyperchromatism and generally arises in florid adenosis or radial sclerosing lesions. Dramatic apocrine atypia may be very difficult to distinguish from apocrine ductal carcinoma in situ. The latter is distinguished from apocrine atypia by greater extent of the lesion (>0.

ABSTRACT Reactive atypia in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells reflects cellular changes frequently observed in respiratory cytology, typically resulting from injury, inflammation, or irritation rather than malignancy.

Identifying atypical cells in BAL samples poses a significant challenge, as their morphology can resemble that of neoplastic processes. Characteristics of reactive atypia include nuclear en

Atypical fibrous histiocytomas are an uncommon but benign variant of dermatofibroma where the neoplastic cells can feature cytological atypia constituted by prominent nuclear enlargement, pleomorphism and multinucleated giant cells. Though these can have a degree of atypia, they have a benign course and a failure to recognize these tumors as benign can lead to misdiagnosis and overtreatment, particularly in patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome who are known to be predisposed to various malignancies.

Abstract:
Apocrine change in the breast is an extremely common finding. In most cases, the benign or malignant nature of the lesion is easily recognized. Apocrine adenosis is used to describe sclerosing adenosis with apocrine change. The term apocrine atypia is used when there is significant cytologic atypia in apocrine cells, characterized by a 3-fold nuclear enlargement, prominent/multiple nucleoli, and hyperchromasia. Atypical apocrine adenosis is diagnosed when apocrine adenosis and apocrine atypia are superimposed. However, there are no definite criteria to distinguish atypical apocrine adenosis fr

Depth-resolved label-free optical imaging by the method of multiphoton autofluorescence microscopy (MPAM) may offer new ways to examine cellular and extracellular atypia associated with epithelial squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). MPAM was evaluated for its ability to identify cellular and microstructural atypia in head and neck tissues from resected discarded tumor tissue. Three-dimensional image volumes were obtained from tissues from the floor of the mouth, tongue, and larynx, and were then processed for histology. MPAM micrographs were evaluated for qualitative metrics of cell atypia and quan

Abstract:
Abstract Context.—The endometrium is an intrinsically dynamic tissue with great capability for regeneration and proliferation; consequently, there is some overlap between features seen in benign, premalignant, and malignant lesions. This leads to marked intrabiopsy, interbiopsy, and interobserver variability. Objective.—We studied the specificity and sensitivity of computerized image analysis of molecular markers to evaluate its potential use as a diagnostic tool. Design.—Specimens from 100 patients were examined and the following histologic diagnoses were assigned: proliferative endometrium (

Abstract:
We present the case of an adolescent with an intramuscular ancient schwannoma of the axillary nerve which, to the best of our knowledge, has not been reported before. Due to its deep location, intramuscular schwannoma has less clinical signs and hence, is difficult to diagnose. Ancient schwannoma, characterised by degeneration due to long course, is rare and can be mistaken for malignancy due to heterogeneous intensity and degeneration evident on MRI and nuclear atypia on histopathology. It is important to differentiate it from malignancy based on a clinically benign swelling with a long histo

Abstract:
8507 Background: Mesothelioma includes epithelioid, sarcomatoid, and biphasic histologic subtypes, and the epithelioid subtype is histologically graded based on mitotic count and nuclear atypia. Correlation between the most common somatic mutations ( BAP1, NF2, TP53, CDKN2A), and overall survival is poorly understood. High PD-L1 expression is a poor prognostic factor for survival and may be a predictor of response to immunotherapy. Few studies have evaluated the relationships between these factors.

Endometriosis is a benign condition affecting women of reproductive age. A potential association with ovarian cancer has been documented. Atypical endometriosis (AE) is characterized by deviations from the typical microscopic appearance of endometriosis, including cytologic and architectural atypia. AE has been recognized as a potential precursor to endometriosis-associated ovarian cancers (EAOC), particularly endometrioid and clear cell subtypes.

The study aims to re-evaluate atypia in the light of three definitive cytological parameters (high N/C ratio, hyperchromasia, and irregular nuclear contours) and correlate with the follow-up histopathology and cytopathology with an attempt to redefine the morphological features that would aid in distinguishing reactive atypia from malignancy.

Histologic examination of the tumor in the excision specimen revealed malignant cytologic features that were not present in the initial biopsy. A review of the literature identified five additional cases of CCA with similar malignant cytologic features. On analysis, common histopathologic characteristics included cellular
