Abstract
Introduction: In this study we aim to analyze the TRPS1 immunostaining of salivary gland tumors (SGT) on cytology cell blocks and compare the staining pattern on subsequent surgical resections.
Methods: Malignant SGTs, oncocytomas and basal cell adenomas diagnosed on fine needle aspiration were retrieved from 2019 to 2021 database. Cases with surgical follow-up were selected. TRPS1 staining was performed on cytology cell blocks and surgical specimens. Scoring was interpreted by two pathologists independently.
Results: Our cohort comprised of 58 cases: 45 malignant and 13 benign. TRPS1 scoring was interpreted for 44 cytology and 51 surgical cases. 14 cytology cases lacked tumor cells on deeper levels. For 7 cases, surgical blocks were not retrievable. TRPS1 positivity for cytology and surgical cases were 52% and 47% respectively. In the malignant cohort, TRPS1 was positive in 21/32 (66%) cytology cases and 21/43 (56%) surgical cases. All cases of basal cell adenocarcinoma, carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma and salivary duct carcinoma were TRPS1 positive on cytology. All cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma and acinic cell carcinoma were TRPS1 positive on surgical resections. In the benign cohort, TRPS1 was positive in 2/12 (17%) cytology cases; however, none of the surgically resected benign cases showed reactivity (0/8). Cytology-surgical correlation of TRPS1 staining was done in 37 cases. We found 21 concordant and 16 discordant cases. Discordance was highest in mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
Conclusion: TRPS1 is not an entirely specific marker for breast carcinoma. TRPS1 positivity was noted in a substantial number of salivary gland malignant neoplasms. Cases demonstrating discordance in TRPS1 staining pattern on cytology-surgical correlation warrant further exploration.
期刊介绍:
Diagnostic Cytopathology is intended to provide a forum for the exchange of information in the field of cytopathology, with special emphasis on the practical, clinical aspects of the discipline. The editors invite original scientific articles, as well as special review articles, feature articles, and letters to the editor, from laboratory professionals engaged in the practice of cytopathology. Manuscripts are accepted for publication on the basis of scientific merit, practical significance, and suitability for publication in a journal dedicated to this discipline. Original articles can be considered only with the understanding that they have never been published before and that they have not been submitted for simultaneous review to another publication.
