Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen in a patient with Maffucci syndrome: a case report and review of literature

Background

Maffucci syndrome is a congenital, non-hereditary mesodermal dysplasia characterized by multiple enchondromas and hemangiomas. The presence of visceral vascular lesions in this syndrome is exceedingly rare.

Case presentation

We report a 26-year-old female who was diagnosed with Maffucci syndrome along with sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation (SANT) of the spleen. The patient underwent a laparoscopic splenectomy. Immunostaining of the excised specimen revealed 3 distinct types of vessels in the angiomatoid nodules: CD34?/CD8?/CD31+ small veins, CD34?/CD8+/CD31+ sinusoids, and CD34+/CD8?/CD31+ capillaries, leading to the diagnosis of SANT of the spleen.

Conclusions

This case reports the first patient in the literature exhibiting the features of Maffucci syndrome along with SANT of the spleen. The spleen is probably a predilection site of visceral vascular lesions in this syndrome with a proportion of 4 out of 14. An abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) scan is recommended for any cases of abdominal discomfort. Surgical excision is usually sufficient because of the relatively benign behavior of SANT, however, a more aggressive follow-up is proposed due to the high risk of malignant transformation of enchondromas and development of other neoplasms associated with this syndrome. Further studies are required to reveal its genetic basis for comprehensive prognosis evaluation and therapeutic guidance.

     

Clinical and pathological characteristics of giant cell angioblastoma: a case report

ABSTRACT: Giant cell angioblastoma (GCAB) is an extremely rare soft tissue tumor of early childhood and only five cases have been described to date. As such the clinical, pathological, and prognostic features are poorly defined. We prensent here a new case of GCAB in bone of a child aged 4-years old. The lesion was composed of dense and loose cell regions. The dense regions were characterized by nodular, linear, and plexiform aggregates of oval- to spindle-shaped tumor cells around small vascular channels and interspersed with large mononuclear cells and multinucleate giant cells. The loose cell areas were characterized by distributed fibroblasts and abundant myxoid matrix, which diminished with patient age. Infiltrative growth was observed in some areas. Oval-to-spindle cells showed positivity for Vimentin, CD31 and CD34 staining, and partial positivity for smooth muscle actin. Mononuclear cells and multinucleate giant cells showed Vimentin and CD68 positivity. Seventeen months after thorough curettage of the lesion, a local recurrence was found. Based upon the clinical, histological and immunohistochemical findings, infiltrate condition, and prognosis, we classified GCAB into two subtypes. Type I does not infiltrate surrounding tissues and has good prognosis. Type II infiltrates the surrounding tissues, relapses earlier, and has worse prognosis. This report augments the limited GCAB literature to promote our understanding and guide therapy of this rare disease.Virtual slidesThe virtual slide(s) for this article can be found here: http://www.diagnosticpathology.diagnomx.eu/vs/6699811297488137.     

Utility of CD34 reactivity in evaluating focal nodular hepatocellular lesions sampled by fine needle aspiration biopsy

OBJECTIVE: To determine the patterns of CD34 reactivity in hepatocellular adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia and to evaluate the utility of CD34 reactivity in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. STUDY DESIGN: Seventeen cases of well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma, 14 cases of cirrhosis, 9 cases of focal nodular hyperplasia and 7 cases of hepatocellular adenoma were stained with immunoperoxidase antibodies to CD34. The slides were scored according to the degree of lesional reactivity. RESULTS: Fourteen of 17 cell blocks with hepatocellular carcinoma showed unequivocal sinusoidal or peripheral reactivity for CD34. Five of seven cases of hepatocellular adenoma and four of nine cases of focal nodular hyperplasia showed > 50% sinusoidal reactivity for CD34. All 14 cases of cirrhosis showed peripheral to no sinusoidal reactivity. CONCLUSION: CD34 reactivity in a diffuse sinusoidal pattern can be helpful in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, consideration should be given to the possibility of hepatocellular adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia, which can also exhibit significant diffuse CD34 reactivity. In these cases, a reticulin stain may be helpful with the differential diagnosis.     

Sclerotic fibroma-like dermatofibroma: an uncommon distinctive variant of dermatofibroma

Dermatofibroma (DF) is a common benign cutaneous tumor with many variants based on alterations in the morphology and composition of its diverse elements. One very infrequent type is sclerotic fibroma-like DF (SF-DF). We report 7 new cases of SF-DF. In addition, their main clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features were compared with 14 unselected common DFs and with 3 sclerotic fibromas (SFs). Microscopically, the 7 cases of SF-DFs showed an unencapsulated, well-circumscribed, hypocellular central nodule with thick collagen bundles arranged in a storiform pattern with prominent clefts. The overlying epidermis was attenuated. The periphery of this nodule was more cellular with histopathologic features of common DF. The 7 SF-DFs patients were 4 women and 3 men with a mean (+/-SD) age of 44.8 (+/-15.5) years. These 7 patients were younger than those suffering from SFs [71.0 (+/-17.3) years; (p=0.04)] and older than those presenting common DFs [30.5 (+/-12.3) years; (p=0.03)]. Immunohistochemically, spindle cells in all 7 SF-DFs were negative for CD34 and CD99. On the contrary, the 3 cases of SF were positive for CD34 and CD99. All of the common DFs were negative for CD34 and only 4 (28.6%) of them were positive for CD99. In conclusion, SF-DF is an uncommon variant of DF with similar clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features. SF-DF shares certain histopathologic features with SF but they are immunophenotypically different. Therefore, both entities should be differentiated.     

Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen (SANT) in a patient with clear cell carcinoma of the uterus: a case report

Background

Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen is a very rare benign vascular lesion recently described. Usually, sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen is an incidental finding; the association with malignant tumors is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, we report the first case of sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen associated with uterine clear cell carcinoma.

Case presentation

A 49-year-old Arabic woman presented to our institute with abdominal pain and distention. An abdominal computed tomographic scan was obtained, which showed a 14-cm uterine malignant tumor and a 4-cm isolated splenic nodule suggesting a metastatic lesion. The tumor was limited to the uterus but did not extend beyond. The patient underwent surgical treatment, and the histopathological examination of the resected uterine and splenic specimens disclosed invasive uterine clear cell carcinoma and sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen, respectively. The patient had no signs of the disease 17 months after surgical treatment.

Conclusions

Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen is a very rare benign disease with a misleading presentation when associated with a malignant tumor. Pathological assessment of the resected spleen is the only way to achieve the correct diagnosis.

     

Two-color immunostaining of liver fine needle aspiration biopsies with CD34 and carcinoembryonic antigen. Potential utilization in the diagnosis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma vs. metastatic tumor

OBJECTIVE: To examine immunohistochemical staining of cell block material with antibodies against vascular marker CD34 and polyclonal carcinoembryonic antigen (pCEA) for their clinical utility as part of a 2-color staining protocol in fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy of liver masses to distinguish metastases from primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). STUDY DESIGN: The authors obtained cell block material from 96 liver FNAs and performed simultaneous (i.e., "dual-color") immunohistochemical staining utilizing antibodies against vascular marker CD34 and pCEA. Cases were blinded and evaluated by the authors for staining pattern and intensity. A consensus was obtained, the results were unblinded, and the diagnoses were correlated. RESULTS: After staining, 89 cases had sufficient tissue for evaluation. Of the 19 HCC cases, 16 (84%) showed peripheral staining with CD34, and 13 (68%) showed a canalicular or mixed canalicular-cytoplasmic staining pattern for pCEA. Thirteen cases (68%) showed staining for both antigens. All HCC exhibited immunostaining for at least 1 antibody in an appropriate staining pattern. Of the 67 cases of metastatic malignancy, 5 (7%) showed a predominantly transgressing pattern of CD34 staining, 43 (64%) showed a predominantly cytoplasmic or mixed cytoplasmic-canalicular pattern of pCEA staining, and 2 cases (3%) showed staining for both antigens in a transgressing CD34 pattern and cytoplasmic pCEA pattern. None of the 3 normal liver tissue blocks showed staining with either antigen. CONCLUSION: Two-color immunohistochemical staining of liver cell block material obtained by FNA with antibodies to CD34 and pCEA can be helpful in differentiating metastatic tumors vs. primary HCC.     

Chordoid glioma of the third ventricle: Report of a case with cytologic features and utility during intraoperative consultation

BACKGROUND: Chordoid glioma is a rare, low grade neoplasm with a unique chordoid appearance as well as distinct clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features. Its cytologic features have not been described. CASE: A 42-year-old woman with recent-onset amnesia and confusion underwent magnetic resonance imaging, which revealed a 5-cm mass lesion arising in the third ventricle. Intraoperative squash smears showed cellular sheets as well as nests and strands of epithelioid tumor cells with bland nuclei and polygonal to elongated cytoplasm in a mucinous background. Binucleation was commonly seen. The tumor was intimately admixed with a benign lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate and scattered Russell bodies. Histologically, the tumor cells were arranged in a syncytium with prominent lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates and scattered small foci of necrosis in a mucinous matrix. The foremost differential diagnosis was chordoid meningioma. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP), vimentin, epithelial membrane antigen, CD34, neuron-specific enolase and CK-7 and negative for synaptophysin, S-100 protein, neurofilament, and estrogen and progesterone receptors. CONCLUSION: Intraoperative smear cytology in this case of chordoid glioma revealed distinctive cytologic features, reflecting the unique histologic pattern. Cytologic features, such as binucleation, absence of intranuclear pseudoinclusions and GFAP immunoreactivity, are particularly helpful in differentiating chordoid glioma from chordoid meningioma.     

The distribution of CD34-positive stromal cells and myofibroblasts in colorectal carcinoid tumors

In order to understand the stromal reaction associated with colorectal neoplasms, we examined specimens from 26 patients including normal colorectal tissues (n=15), carcinoid tumors (n=12), well differentiated adenocarcinomas (n=10), and poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas (n=4), using an immunohistochemical method. Myofibroblasts and CD34-positive stromal cells were distributed in the mucosa and in the area between the submucosal and subserosal layers, respectively. However, the distribution of these cells markedly changed with the invasion of neoplasms. Namely, myofibroblasts were abundant in the invasive stroma of all colorectal neoplasms. CD34-positive stromal cells were completely absent from the invasive stroma of colorectal cancers. On the other hand, CD34-positive stromal cells were absent from four out of five carcinoid tumor cases with lesions measuring less than 2 mm in size, but were present in all seven cases of carcinoid tumors measuring more than 2 mm. Double-immunostaining identified stromal cells expressing both ASMA and CD34 in several carcinoid tumor cases. Finally, no CD34-positive stromal cells were observed in the invasive stroma of colorectal cancers. However, the distribution of these cells in carcinoid tumors may depend on the lesion size. Namely, CD34-positive stromal cells existed between neoplastic nests in large-sized carcinoid tumors. Myofibroblasts in the stroma of colorectal neoplasms may originate from CD34-positive stromal cells.     

Cytomorphology of hyaline-vascular Castleman''s disease: a diagnostic challenge

OBJECTIVE: Hyaline-vascular Castleman's disease (CD) is difficult to diagnose on fine needle aspiration and may be mistaken to be a lymphoreticular malignancy because of the presence of large cells having nuclei showing atypical features. The cytomorphological findings in three histopathologically documented cases of hyaline-vascular CD were evaluated to a set of cytomorphological criteria which could help in the identification of this condition on aspirate smears. METHODS: The Papanicolaou and Diff-Quik stained smears from three cases of histologically documented hyaline-vascular CD were reviewed by one author. After review the following cytomorphological criteria were suggested to be indicators of the lesion. (i) The presence of large oval to round cells having ill-defined cytoplasmic margins and large nuclei with irregular nuclear outlines having fine or coarse chromatin giving a crumpled tissue paper appearance. (ii) A polymorphous population of lymphoid cells predominantly of small lymphocytes in the background. The smears from these three cases were then mixed with smears from four cases of reactive lymphoid hyperplasia and three cases of Hodgkin's lymphoma. These ten cases were blindly evaluated by two other cytopathologists in order to evaluate the utility of the proposed criteria in identifying CD. RESULTS: The cytomorphological criteria seen in the methodology section were present in all the cases. These features were helpful in distinguishing CD from reactive lymphoid hyperplasias and Hodgkin's Lymphomas in all cases except one case. CONCLUSION: Although hyaline-vascular CD is a difficult diagnostic entity on aspirate material the presence of large histiocytic cells with a crumpled tissue paper appearance of the nuclei in a background of small lymphocytes are useful indicators for suspecting this lesion. However, these findings should be analysed in larger studies to determine if they could in anyway reduce the diagnostic dilemma in cases of CD.     

Plasma Cell Granuloma of The Thyroid: Report of Case and Review of Literature

ObjectiveTo report the 12th case of a patient with a plasma cell granuloma of the thyroid, a rare cause of goiter and hypothyroidism.MethodsWe present a case report of a woman with a plasma cell granuloma of the thyroid. The clinical and pathologic features of the lesion are described, the differential diagnosis is discussed, and the relevant literature is reviewed.ResultsPlasma cell granulomas are uncommon benign lesions most typically located in the lung and only rarely identified in other organs. Only 11 cases of plasma cell granuloma of the thyroid gland have been reported previously. We describe the case of a 55-year-old woman with a long history of hypothyroidism and compressive symptoms from an enlarging neck mass. A thyroidectomy was performed. On gross examination, the thyroid had been replaced by firm, white, fibrotic tissue with a multinodular appearance. On microscopy, the infiltrate consisted predominantly of plasma cells that were polyclonal with the expression of both kappa and lambda light chains. A minor component of CD5- and CD20-positive (T and B) lymphocytes was observed. These features were important for establishing the diagnosis of a plasma cell granuloma and distinguishing the lesion from a plasmacytoma.ConclusionThis is the 12th reported case of plasma cell granuloma of the thyroid gland, a very rare cause of either a diffuse or a nodular goiter and hypothyroidism. The presence of a polyclonal plasma cell population with the expression of both kappa and lambda light chains helps to distinguish a plasma cell granuloma from a malignant plasmacytoma of the thyroid gland.

Cytotoxic peripheral T cell lymphoma arising in a patient with nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma: a case report

In this paper, we describe a case of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma with the subsequent development of a peripheral T cell lymphoma. This case is unusual in that the sheets of atypical and small to intermediate-sized T cells in the diffuse component were CD8 positive and expressed cytotoxic proteins. The diagnosis of peripheral T cell lymphoma was supported by the demonstration of a clonal T cell receptor beta chain gene rearrangement by Southern blot analysis. Peripheral T cell lymphoma with a cytotoxic phenotype is a rare entity with an aggressive clinical behavior. As such, this report emphasizes the need to consider a diagnosis of coexisting peripheral T cell lymphoma in cases of nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma with atypical features, such as few or poorly defined B cell macronodules and diffuse T cell areas. The examination of both T cell receptor gamma and beta chain gene rearrangements should be performed to confirm such cases.     

Role of fine needle aspiration cytology in nodular sclerosis variant of Hodgkin's lymphoma

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in the diagnosis of nodular sclerosis variant of Hodgkin's lymphoma (NSHL) and to analyze cytologic features that could help in subtyping a case of Hodgkin's lymphoma into this variant. STUDY DESIGN: FNAC smears of 18 histopathologically proven cases of NSHL were analyzed for a variety of features. RESULTS: On initial cytologic assessment, 14 of 18 cases were diagnosed as Hodgkin's lymphoma. No further subtyping was performed. In this retrospective analysis it was possible to revise the diagnosis in the remaining 4 cases. Of the various cytologic features analyzed, presence of numerous lacunar-type cells along with fibroblasts and collagenous material were useful pointers toward a diagnosis of nodular sclerosis variant. Fibroblasts were seen in 83.33%, collagenous material in 27.77% and numerous lacunar cells in 77.77%. CONCLUSION: Subtyping of NSHL based on cytologic features alone has been a matter of debate for a long time. Of the various subtypes, nodular sclerosis poses the greatest diagnostic difficulty. Though certain cytologic features may help in suggesting a diagnosis of nodular sclerosis variant, the primary role of fine needle aspiration is to diagnose a case of Hodgkin's lymphoma as such and advise histopathologic examination for further categorization.     

Angiocentric T-cell lymphoma

SUMMARY: The CD20+ variant of angiocentric T-cell lymphoma is an unusual type of T-cell lymphomas that present cystic changes in organs because of ischaemic necroses. The purpose of this study was to describe a case of CD20+angiocentric T-cell lymphoma, discussing its clinical, histopathological and immunohistochemical features, to analyze its proliferation kinetics and to consider its possible relationship to the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) to understand better the pathobiological nature of the disease. METHODS: The clinical, histopathological, immunohistochemical and single-cell DNA cytophotometric features of the case were analyzed. In addition in situ hybridization was performed to detect EBV. RESULTS: The 24 years old woman was admitted to our Institute because of pain in the abdominal region and weight loss. There were enlarged lymph nodes on the neck, and biopsy was done. Histological diagnosis: angiocentric T-cell lymphoma, CD20+ variant. CD3, CD43, CD45RA and CD45R0 antigens were positive in the atypic lymphoid cells of the tumour and in cells infiltrating the vascular wall. DNA index was 0.8589 (hypodiploid). Tumour cells in G1 phase: 47%, S phase: 45.4%, G2 phase: 7.6%. Combined chemotherapy was administered because of clinical stadium IV/B of malignant lymphoma (5 CHOP-Bleo, CEPP, CEP, CMVE treatment). The disease showed gradual progression and the patient died 14 months after the first symptoms had appeared. CONCLUSIONS: In the last 13 years there were 5 cases of angiocentric T-cell lymphoma at our Institute. The CD20+ variant is rare, its clinical symptoms are special, the prognosis is unfavourable. The cause why we demonstrate this case is to call attention to a new treatment for these patients by immunotherapy using monoclonal antibodies against CD20 antigen.     

Mammary pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia. A reappraisal of the fine needle aspiration cytology findings

OBJECTIVE: To describe and reevaluate the fine needle aspiration cytology findings of pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH) of the breast, with histologic, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural correlation. STUDY DESIGN: The authors reviewed the clinical features, fine needle aspiration cytology, histology and immunohistochemical results in all cases of mammary PASH encountered at Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital, Hong Kong, during the 4-year period from January 1998 to May 2002. Ultrastructural examination was carried out in a selected example. The findings were compared with those in the literature. RESULTS: Four cases of PASH of the breast were encountered during the study period. The ages of the patients ranged from 34 to 56 years. One of them was a male presenting with gynecomastia. Only 2 cases had fine needle aspiration biopsies with a satisfactory cellular yield available for review. The cytospin preparations were of moderate cellularity and showed cohesive clusters of bland-looking ductal cells in a background of single, naked nuclei and some spindle cells containing fine chromatin and a discernible amount of cytoplasm. Occasional ductal cell clusters assuming a "staghorn" pattern, a feature commonly seen in fibroadenoma, were noted. Besides, there were scantly, loose and hypocellular stromal tissue fragments that contained spindle cells and occasional paired, elongated nuclei embedded in a fibrillary matrix. Histologic examination of the excisional biopsies confirmed the presence of PASH. It was characterized by many slitlike spaces rimmed by CD34-positive myofibroblasts/fibroblasts in a focally hyalinized stroma. Sometimes, ill-formed, fusiform aggregates of fibroblasts were also observed. Their fibroblastic nature was confirmed by electron microscopy. CONCLUSION: Fine needle aspiration cytology of PASH closely resembles that of fibroadenoma. Though subtle differences do exist, a definitive diagnosis is unlikely on the basis of the cytologic examination alone. PASH needs to be distinguished from borderline lesions, such as phyllodes tumor, and more sinister conditions, which sometimes have a similar cytologic appearance.     

The distribution and role of myofibroblasts and CD34-positive stromal cells in normal pancreas and various pancreatic lesions

To elucidate the distribution and role of myofibroblasts and CD34-positive stromal cells in various pancreatic lesions, we performed an immunohistochemical study using a streptoavidin-biotin immunoperoxidase technique. We selected 43 pancreatic lesions from 1 biopsied, 22 surgically resected and 12 autopsied specimens: acute pancreatitis (n=3), chronic non-obstructive pancreatitis (n=4), obstructive pancreatitis (n=7), islet cell tumor (n=4), serous cystadenoma (n=7), mucinous cystadenoma (n=6), and invasive ductal carcinoma (n=12). In normal pancreas, myofibroblasts and CD34-positive stromal cells were predominantly present in the peridcutal and periacinar areas, respectively. Both myofibroblasts and CD34-positive cells were observed in the stroma of chronic pancreatitis. In four islet cell tumors, myofibroblasts were present in the stroma of the tumor center, but no CD34-positive stromal cells were identified. Additionally, myofibroblasts and CD34-positive stromal cells were located in the inner layer and the outer layer of the capsule of three islet cell tumors, respectively. In nine of the thirteen cystadenomas, only myofibroblasts were recognized in the cyst wall. In the remaining four cystadenomas, a small number of CD34-positive cells were observed in the cyst wall. In 12 invasive ductal carcinomas, the stroma possessed a lot of myofibroblasts, but there were no or few CD34-positive stromal cells. In conclusion, it seems that the abundant amount of CD34-stromal cells in the main lesions is characteristic of chronic inflammatory lesions. Myofibroblasts and CD34-positive stromal cells may play a role in regulating the tumor growth in the capsule of islet cell tumors of the pancreas.     

Cytologic features of solitary fibrous tumor of the parotid gland. A case report

BACKGROUND: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare neoplasm that most commonly involves the pleura but is increasingly recognized at other locations, including lung, liver, thyroid and parotid glands, with only a few reports describing its cytologic features. CASE: The fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) features of an SFT located in the left parotid gland of a 34-year-old woman were compared to the histologic and immunohistochemical aspects of the lesion. CONCLUSION: This case confirms that SFT has distinct cytomorphologic features and that FNAB can be helpful in its diagnosis.
