To overcome these shortcomings, investigators have studied a variety of emerging ancillary tests to augment urine cytology (UroVysion, ImmunoCyt/uCyte+, BTA-stat/TRAK, NMP22, SCD-A7, URO17, CellDetect, UroMark, UroSEEK). Furthermore, with the advent of digital cytology, the creation of artificial intelligence tools has created innovative opportunities to aid with urine cytology. This review article discusses the lessons learned in the evolution of reporting systems, explores the merit and challenges of ancillary tests, and calls attention to potential utility of applying artificial intelligence in urine cytology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100612,"journal":{"name":"Human Pathology Reports","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 300733"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772736X24000057/pdfft?md5=47d0e37442379d106c973709c84ef298&pid=1-s2.0-S2772736X24000057-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139986115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, AIE is known to be a pan-enteric disease, and the initial histologic findings could be first encountered at non-small bowel sites. Here, we report a case of adult-onset AIE, where the initial histologic findings of AIE manifested in the colon as marked loss of goblet cells and prominent basal apoptoses.

Additionally, a literature review was performed to determine the histopathologic characteristics of adult-onset AIE in the colon. Overall, the present case report, as well as findings from the literature review, suggest that AIE should enter the differential diagnosis in an adult patient with diarrhea when loss of goblet cells and prominent basal apoptoses are observed in a patient’s colon biopsy, especially when alternative etiologies are not supported by appropriate clinical context.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100612,"journal":{"name":"Human Pathology Reports","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 300732"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772736X24000045/pdfft?md5=c6869c8c9a75a8f2f2e6ff7388c7bf1b&pid=1-s2.0-S2772736X24000045-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139731773","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
