The diagnosis of solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) can be challenging due to potential confusion with other pancreatic neoplasms, particularly pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), using current pathological diagnostic markers. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of bulk RNA sequencing data from SPNs, NETs, and normal pancreas,...
Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) has several histopathologic presentations. LyP featuring gamma-delta (γδ) T-cell receptor expression may masquerade as and may be misdiagnosed as aggressive cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, particularly primary cutaneous γδ T-cell lymphoma (PCGDTL) or γδ mycosis fungoides. We performed a clinicopathologic analysis of the largest...
Drivers of Spitz neoplasms include activating point mutations in HRAS and Spitz-associated genomic fusions. It has become evident that some BRAF-mutated melanocytic neoplasms can morphologically mimic Spitz tumors (STs). These have been termed BRAF mutated and morphologically spitzoid (BAMS). In this study, 17 experts from the International Melanoma...
NTRK-rearranged spindle cell neoplasm occurs predominantly in the superficial or deep soft tissues of extremities or trunk. Occurrence in the visceral organs is extremely rare. Herein, we describe 8 cases of NTRK-rearranged spindle cell neoplasm that arose primarily in the gastrointestinal tract. Patients included 5 males and 3 females with age at presentation...
Steroid cell tumors (SCTs) of the ovary are rare and understudied, and as such, uncertainties remain about their malignant potential, as well as clinicopathologic predictors of patient outcome. Based on a multi-institutional cohort of cases, we present findings from the largest study of SCT reported to date. Clinicopathologic data were documented on...
