Molecular diagnostics has impacted the diagnosis, prediction of prognosis, and selection of targeted therapy for many tumor types. While pulmonary adenocarcinomas and melanomas are among the neoplasms most associated with molecular diagnostics and targeted therapy, malignancies of the pancreaticobiliary system have also been impacted by precision m...

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a disease of unknown etiology characterized by a proliferation of histiocytic cells resembling dendritic Langerhans cells. LCH can be unifocal or multifocal, with one- or many-organ involvement. The serous fluids are rarely involved. Cytological diagnosis of LCH is possible and relies on recognition of the typ...

The protoplast experimental system eis an effective tool for functional genomics and cell fusion breeding. However, the physiological and molecular mechanisms of protoplast response to enzymolysis are not clear, which has become a major obstacle to protoplast regeneration. Here, we used physiological, cytological, proteomics and gene expression ana...

Quality and safety are the foundation of the practice of cytopathology. Review of key performance indicator (KPI) data can shine a light on laboratory vulnerabilities and potential areas for targeted improvement. The rate and content of amendment reports is a frequently monitored KPI in anatomic pathology, but few have studied its value in cytopath...

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common primary malignant thyroid neoplasm and malignant diagnosis in thyroid aspirates. Metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung is an under-recognised mimicker which overlaps cytomorphologically and immunocytochemically with PTC. This case series reviews thyroid aspirates of metastatic lung carcinomas, ai...

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) resistance may be acquired via genotypic and/or phenotypic transformations. Herein, we report an extremely uncommon case with sequential small cell transformation and EGFR T790M mutation, in an elderly female with EGFR exon 21 L858R-mutant lung adenocarcinoma, following treatme...

The Milan System for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) is a standard, evidence-based classification system for salivary gland fine-needle aspiration (SG-FNA). Since it was published in 2018, many researchers across the world have applied this uniform reporting system to their cohorts. The authors comprehensively reviewed cohort studie...

The clinical performance of the Yokohama reporting system for breast cytology remains uncertain. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated 318 breast fine needle aspirations (FNABs) from Los Angeles County Hospital over a five-year period, analysing data for breast cytology, histology, and radiology. Among 318 breast FNAB cases, 78.3% (249/318) w...

Pilomyxoid astrocytoma is a subtype of pilocytic astrocytoma that is described as a grade 1 tumour in the 2022 WHO classification of central nervous system tumours. It occurs predominantly in the hypothalamic region in infants. Although the histological features of pilomyxoid astrocytomas are well documented, few reports are available in the litera...
