Grading of Papillary Urothelial Clinical Decision Based on Stage and Grade
Neoplasms Muscle Radical cystectomy WHO 2016 Invasive UC LN dissection Biopsy/TUR Non-muscle 1. Papilloma Invasive UC 2. Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) Low risk Intermediate risk High risk 3. Low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma (initial, single, low (recurrent, multifocal (High grade) 4. High grade papillary urothelial carcinoma grade, <3cm) low grade, >3cm)

139 Urothelial Carcinoma Variant Histology Clinical Decision Based on Stage and Grade Squamous cell Glandular What is critical? - Invasion of muscularis propria - High grade UC
What is not so critical? - Invasion of lamina propria vs Nested Micropapillary non-invasive - Low grade vs PUNLMP
7 8
Urothelial Carcinoma Variant Histology Urothelial Carcinoma Variant Histology Significance What to do? 1. Common, seen in up to ¼ cases - Squamous histology most common 1. Report any component of variant 2. In general, no impact on clinical histology outcomes 2. Diagnosis of “pure variant histology” 3. Associated with aggressive pathological reserved for cases without concomitant features urothelial carcinoma and CIS component - Invasion of muscularis propria 3. Otherwise, diagnose “urothelial - Lymph node metastasis carcinoma with a component of variant - Upstaging histology” 4. Rule out metastasis 9 10
Lymphovascular Invasion (LVI) Diagnostic Criteria for LVI LVI Retraction Significance of LVI - Predicts worse clinical outcomes - LVI in TUR associated with higher risk for upstaging in radical
cystectomy (Turker et al BJUI 2012) 30% T<1 TCC with LVI in TUR was Clear endothelial lining No upstaged in radical cystectomy Single/a few Multiple Odds ratio=5.8 Tight cluster with smooth border Rough borders with single cells Fibrin, RBC Cellular debris

140 Clinical Implications of Pathological Lymphovascular Invasion in TUR Diagnoses on TUR or Biopsy Specimens: Take home message
What to do? Top 4 Diagnoses in TUR/Biopsy Specimens 1. Look for and report it 1. Invasion of muscularis propria 2. Use stringent criteria 2. High grade urothelial carcinoma - Minimum criterion: true endothelial lining 3. Endothelial markers in ambiguous cases 3. Variant histology 4. Lymphovascular invasion

Differential Diagnosis of Papillary Urothelial Lesions Detached Papillary Structures of the Urinary Bladder
Are detached papillary structures present?
No Yes Morphology of the papillary structures
Mucosal folds Papillary hyperplasia Broad Thin Edematous Slender Inflammatory lesion Inflamed Non-inflamed Biopsy artifact
Polypoid cystitis Papillary urothelial Inflammatory neoplasm lesion
21
Papillary Urothelial Hyperplasia (Urothelial proliferation of uncertain malignant potential, WHO 2016)
Undulating mucosal folds without detached papillary fronds Thicker than normal urothelium; increased vascularity at base
142 Papillary Urothelial Hyperplasia Papillary Urothelial Hyperplasia (Urothelial proliferation of uncertain malignant potential, WHO 2016)
De novo diagnosis Significance unknown; suggest clinical follow-up Prior h/o papillary tumors Early recurrence Patient monitored more closely than the general population
Cytology similar to normal urothelium 26
Differential Diagnosis of Papillary Urothelial Lesions of the Urinary Bladder Neoplastic Reactive Papillae Papillae Are detached papillary structures present?
No Yes Morphology of the papillae
Mucosal folds Papillary hyperplasia Broad Thin Edematous Slender Inflammatory lesion Inflamed Non-inflamed Biopsy artifact
Inflammatory lesion Papillary urothelial Polypoid cystitis neoplasm
27 28
Fat Neoplastic Papillae
Usually a focal finding Case 1: Reactive (papillary nephrogenic adenoma) Thin papillae always neoplastic
143 Correlation of Cystoscopic Impression with Histologic Diagnosis of Biopsy Specimens WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology Classification of Papillary of the Bladder Urothelial Neoplasms (WHO 2016) Cystoscopy correctly discriminates between dysplastic/malignant and benign/reactive 1. Papilloma lesions 2. Papillary neoplasm of low malignant - Sensitivity and specificity: 100% potential (PUNLMP) - Positive and negative predictive value: 100% 3. Papillary carcinoma, low grade When you are not sure if you are looking at a 4. Papillary carcinoma, high grade papillary tumor or reactive lesion, talk to your urologists!
Cina et al Hum Pathol 2001 31 32
Grading of Papillary Urothelial Neoplasm Grading of Papillary Urothelial Neoplasms
Papilloma PUNLMP Low grade High grade
Architecture of Delicate Delicate Fused / branched / delicate 1. Architecture of papillae papillae occasionally fused 2. # of cell layers # of cell layers Normal Any thickness Organization of 3. Disorganization of cells Normal Normal Loss of polarity 4. Nuclear size cells 5. Nuclear shape Nuclear size Normal Slightly 6. Chromatin Nuclear shape Normal Uniform Variation in size and shape 7. Nucleoli Chromatin Fine Fine Hyperchromasia 8. Mitosis Nucleoli Absent Prominent Rare Occasional any Frequent Mitosis Absent basal level any level
33 34
Simplified Approach for Grading Papillary Papilloma Urothelial Tumors
Normal urothelium Papilloma on a simple stalk Thick, normal appearing urothelium PUNLMP on a stalk Abnormal urothelium w/ uniformity Low grade Simple papillae covered with on a stalk normal urothelium
Abnormal urothelium Not papilloma if: w/o uniformity High grade - Thickened urothelium on a stalk - Fused or branching papillae 35 36
144 PUNLMP Low grade
Normal, but thicker mucosa
Not PUNLMP if: Appreciable atypia at low power, - Appreciable atypia at low power but uniformity maintained
High grade Grading Papillary Urothelial Tumors: Issues 1. Grading represents arbitrary division of a morphological continuum into distinct categories that correlate with clinical behavior - Borderline cases exist 2. More objective parameters are not used in the grading scheme - Mitosis - Immunohistochemistry Uniformity lost (size, shape, spacing) 40
Grading Papillary Urothelial Tumors: FAQ
1. Do you use mitosis to grade? - No - Yes in selective cases (borderline b/w low and high grade) - State the reason in Comment:
This tumor is histologically low grade, but has brisk mitosis. Therefore it is graded as high grade.
41
145 Grading Papillary Urothelial Tumors: FAQ Grading Papillary Urothelial Tumors: FAQ
2. Do you use IHC to grade? 3. How do you sign out a low grade tumor with - No focal high grade component? - Too much overlap between tumors of - 5% cutoff (but no hard data on this!) different grades - < 5%: Low grade with focal high grade component - Urologists treat patient like high grade - > 5%: High grade
43 44
Denuded Papillae Denuded Papillae
What happened?
1. Majority of cases (79%) associated with high grade 2. Caused by biopsy artifact - 52% with cautery artifact - 48% due to mechanical disruption in anatomically limited areas (ureter, renal pelvis, urethra)
Owens et al AJSP 2007
Denuded Papillae Denuded Papillae
What to do?
1. Prompt careful examination of the specimen for rare clinging high-grade carcinoma cells 2. Correlate with concurrent urine cytology specimens Dx: Denuded papillae, consistent with HGTCC with denudation
146 Diagnosis of Papillary Urothelial Lesions Case 2 Take home message 1. All papillary lesions are not neoplastic 2. Use the morphology of fibrovascular cores to 72 y.o. man with history of cigarette distinguish neoplastic and reactive papillary smoking lesions New onset of hematuria - Thin: tumor - Thick: reactive Cystoscopy: irregular hyperremic 3. Grading of papillary tumors made easy mucosa in the bladder dome - Normal urothelium on a simple stalk: papilloma - Normal but thick urotheliu on a stalk: PUNLMP - Atypical urothelium with uniformity: low grade - Atypical urothelium without uniformity: high grade

Working up Flat Urothelial Lesions Working up Flat Urothelial Lesions Immunohistochemistry Immunohistochemistry H&E CK20 CD44 p53 Indications 1. Reactive atypia vs CIS - Atypia of unknown significance Benign 2. Confirm the diagnosis of CIS with unusual morphology
Reactive Caveats 1. Diagnosis based primarily on H&E morphology; IHC supportive CIS 2. Not for distinguishing dysplasia and CIS McKenney J et al AJSP 2001 65 66
149 Reactive Atypia Urothelial Carcinoma in Situ (CIS)
Uniformity maintained (size, shape, spacing); polarity may be lost Nuclei uniformly enlarged, smooth nuclear membrane and chromatin, Unequivocal loss of uniformity (size, shape, spacing); polarity may be lost prominent nucleoli Unequivocal nuclear atypia (nuclei enlarged 4-5X, irregular nuclear membrane, In flammation in the mucosa or lamina propria coarse chromatin, prominent nucleoli, mitosis at upper level)
History of stone, trauma, cystitis, therapy In flammation may be present, but not enough to account for atypia 68

150 Urothelial Dysplasia Diagnostic Criteria for Urothelial Dysplasia
1. Unequivocal neoplastic atypia - Not enough for CIS
2. Diagnostic criteria subjective - The only objective criterion: 3-4 X stromal lymphocytes (“rule of lymphocytes”!) in dysplasia > 5 x stromal lymphocytes in CIS Uniformity: slight loss (variation in size; irregular spacing) Nuclei: enlarged (3-4X), hyperchromasia, increased mitosis In flammation: absent

Urothelial Atypia with Unknown Significance (Diagnostic category, not an entity!) Intravesical Chemotherapy with Thiotepa and Mitomycin C
1. Applied intravesically for non-muscle invasive TCC 2. Alkylating agents cross-linking biomolecules 3. Also act as topical abrasive agent to destroy tumor 4. Histological changes - Necroinflammation of urothelium - Atypical changes in surface urothelium Umbrella cells become large, vacuolated and multinucleated 76 Frank atypia + brisk inflammation 75
Urothelial Changes after Intravesical Chemotherapy Denudation of surface urothelium Urothelial Changes after Intravesical Chemotherapy Atypical changes in the umbrella cells Vascular ectasia, hemorrhage and edema in lamina propria 77
151 Urothelial Atypia with Unknown Significance Working up Flat Urothelial Lesions
Low power High power 1. Flat lesion with significant atypia AND Uniformity Nuclear size Background significant inflammation (size, shape, spacing) + Nuclear attributes + Inflammation 2. Diagnostic category, not a biological entity Polarity - Reactive lesion with significant architectural and cytological atypia - Dysplasia or CIS associated with significant inflammation Uniformity + Uniformity - Nuclear enlarged Frank atypia 3. Implication for urologists: treat inflammation Nuclear atypia Significant inflammation Prominent nucleoli No significant inflammation and follow up with repeat biopsy Significant inflammation 4. Do not abuse it: not for “a diagnosis that I am not sure about or have no clue for” Reactive Dysplasia Atypia of atypia CIS unknown significance 79 80

Implications of NIFT-P My 2 Cents
“A very low risk of adverse outcome when I infrequently use NIFT-P, because the tumor is non-invasive” Some lesions have papillae Some lesions have some invasion or are suspicious for invasion Some lesions have increased mitoses or nuclear atypia
Most common use: lesions I used to think were adenomas with atypia

Morphological Classification of Renal Tumors Morphological Classification Requires A Inherently Not Precise Methodical, Pattern-based Approach
1. Look for predominant pattern at low power Same pattern may be seen in different 2. Generate differential diagnosis based on the tumors predominant pattern Same tumor may have two or more 3. Rule in or out each tumor on the list by different patterns looking for a constellation of histological Poorly differentiated tumors may not have features relatively specific for the tumor a distinct pattern or architecture 4. Use ancillary diagnostic tools 1. Immunohistochemistry 2. Genetic studies
