  • Histological Tumour Type (Required)
    Histological tumour type (Required) Reason/Evidentiary Support All ovarian epithelial malignancies and borderline tumours should be typed according to the WHO classification.1 There are 5 major subtypes of primary ovarian carcinoma, high‐grade serous, clear cell, endometrioid, mucinous and low‐ grade serous.2‐5 There are also other uncommon minor subtypes, those listed by the WHO including malignant Brenner tumour, seromucinous carcinoma and undifferentiated carcinoma.1 Carcinosarcoma is a mixed epithelial and mesenchymal malignancy but is included in the category of epithelial malignancies in this dataset since most are of epithelial origin and histogenesis.6 Although management of ovarian carcinoma is, at present, largely dependent on tumour stage and grade, accurate typing will almost certainly become more important in the future with the introduction of targeted therapies and specific treatments for different tumour types. This is in part because, although clinically often considered as one disease, there is an increasing realisation that the different morphological subtypes of ovarian carcinoma have a different pathogenesis, are associated with distinct molecular alterations and have a different natural history, response to traditional chemotherapy and prognosis.2‐5 Tumour typing may also be important in identifying or initiating testing for an underlying genetic predisposition; for example, high‐grade serous carcinoma may be associated with underlying BRCA1/2 mutation while endometrioid and clear cell carcinomas can occur in patients with Lynch syndrome.7 The most common ovarian carcinoma is high‐grade serous carcinoma (approximately 70%) followed by clear cell and endometrioid.8,9 Mucinous and low‐grade serous are less common. Approximately 90% of advanced stage ovarian carcinomas (stage III/IV) are high‐grade serous in type.8,9 Most primary tubal carcinomas are high‐grade serous or endometrioid and most primary peritoneal carcinomas are of high‐grade serous type.

  • Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome Might Be
    Gao et al. BMC Gastroenterology (2020) 20:167 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12876-020-01238-7 CASE REPORT Open Access Juvenile polyposis syndrome might be misdiagnosed as familial adenomatous polyposis: a case report and literature review Xian Hua Gao1,2†, Juan Li3†, Zi Ye Zhao1,2†, Xiao Dong Xu1,2,YiQiDu2,4, Hong Li Yan2,5, Lian Jie Liu1*, Chen Guang Bai2,6* and Wei Zhang1,2* Abstract Background: Juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS) is a rare disorder characterized by the presence of multiple juvenile polyps in the gastrointestinal tract, and germline mutations in SMAD4 or BMPR1A. Due to its rarity and complex clinical manifestation, misdiagnosis often occurs in clinical practice. Case presentation: A 42-year-old man with multiple pedunculated colorectal polyps and concomitant rectal adenocarcinoma was admitted to our hospital. His mother had died of colon cancer. He was diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and underwent total proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis. Two polyps were selected for pathological examination. One polyp had cystically dilated glands with slight dysplasia. The other polyp displayed severe dysplasia and was diagnosed as adenoma. Three years later, his 21-year-old son underwent a colonoscopy that revealed more than 50 pedunculated colorectal juvenile polyps. Both patients harbored a germline pathogenic mutation in BMPR1A. Endoscopic resection of all polyps was attempted but failed. Finally, the son received endoscopic resection of polyps in the rectum and sigmoid colon, and laparoscopic subtotal colectomy. Ten polyps were selected for pathological examination. All were revealed to be typical juvenile polyps, with cystically dilated glands filled with mucus.

  • Well-Differentiated Spindle Cell Liposarcoma

All rights reserved 0893-3952/10 $32.00 729 Well-differentiated spindle cell liposarcoma (‘atypical spindle cell lipomatous tumor’) does not belong to the spectrum of atypical lipomatous tumor but has a close relationship to spindle cell lipoma: clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular analysis of six cases Thomas Mentzel1, Gabriele Palmedo1 and Cornelius Kuhnen2 1Dermatopathologie, Friedrichshafen, Germany and 2Institute of Pathology, Medical Center, Mu¨nster, Germany Well-differentiated spindle cell liposarcoma represents a rare atypical/low-grade malignant lipogenic neoplasm that has been regarded as a variant of atypical lipomatous tumor. However, well-differentiated spindle cell liposarcoma tends to occur in subcutaneous tissue of the extremities, the trunk, and the head and neck region, contains slightly atypical spindled tumor cells often staining positively for CD34, and lacks an amplification of MDM2 and/or CDK4 in most of the cases analyzed. We studied a series of well-differentiated spindle cell liposarcomas arising in two female and four male patients (age of the patients ranged from 59 to 85 years). The neoplasms arose on the shoulder, the chest wall, the thigh, the lower leg, the back of the hand, and in paratesticular location. The size of the neoplasms ranged from 1.5 to 10 cm (mean: 6.0 cm). All neoplasms were completely excised. The neoplasms were confined to the subcutis in three cases, and in three cases, an infiltration of skeletal muscle was seen. Histologically, the variably cellular neoplasms were composed of atypical lipogenic cells showing variations in size and shape, and spindled tumor cells with slightly enlarged, often hyperchromatic nuclei.

  • Appendix 4 WHO Classification of Soft Tissue Tumours17
    S3.02 The histological type and subtype of the tumour must be documented wherever possible. CS3.02a Accepting the limitations of sampling and with the use of diagnostic common sense, tumour type should be assigned according to the WHO system 17, wherever possible. (See Appendix 4 for full list). CS3.02b If precise tumour typing is not possible, generic descriptions to describe the tumour may be useful (eg myxoid, pleomorphic, spindle cell, round cell etc), together with the growth pattern (eg fascicular, sheet-like, storiform etc). (See G3.01). CS3.02c If the reporting pathologist is unfamiliar or lacks confidence with the myriad possible diagnoses, then at this point a decision to send the case away without delay for an expert opinion would be the most sensible option. Referral to the pathologist at the nearest Regional Sarcoma Service would be appropriate in the first instance. Further International Pathology Review may then be obtained by the treating Regional Sarcoma Multidisciplinary Team if required. Adequate review will require submission of full clinical and imaging information as well as histological sections and paraffin block material.

Olivier Galatoire and Mathieu Zmuda of the A. de Rothschild Ophthalmological Foundation and Dr. Christine Levy-Gabriel of the Curie Institute. The subject is now of unquestionable importance and evidently of great interest to Ophthalmologists, whether they are orbital- palpebral specialists or not. Indeed, errors or delays in the diagnosis of tumor pathologies are relatively common and the consequences can be serious in the case of malignant tumors, especially carcinomas. Swift diagnosis and anatomopathological confirmation will lead to a treatment, discussed in multidisciplinary team meetings, ranging from surgery to radiotherapy.
