Present-day pathologists may be unfamiliar with the histopathologic features of measles, which is a reemerging disease. Awareness of these features may enable early diagnosis of measles in unsuspected cases, including those with an atypical presentation. Using archived tissue samples from historic patients, a unique source of histopathologic inform...

We investigated the feasibility and utility of next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based targeted somatic mutation panels and IG/TR gene rearrangement assays in the diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs) in small-volume biopsies. We performed a retrospective, single-institution review of all NGS assays requested over a 3-year period by hema...

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved CELLSEARCH assay (Menarini Silicon Biosystems) for circulating tumor cells (CTCs) relies on expression of an epithelial cell adhesion molecule to enrich for CTCs. We sought to validate a CTC assay (RareCyte) for clinical use that instead collects a buffy coat preparation enriched for CTCs. Normal p...
