It was suggested that SET (solid, pseudo-endometrioid and transitional-like) morphology in ovarian HGSC is predictably associated with BRCA deficiencies. In this study, we investigated the microscopic patterns and some immunohistochemical markers predicting the prognosis of serous carcinoma.Material and method: We re-evaluated 305 HGSC ovarian resections morphologically and calculated the SET morphology percentages for each case. Morphological and immunohistochemical data correlated with the survival and post-treatment disease progression data.Results: The median age at diagnosis was 57 years and the median follow-up period was 3.1 years. The median overall survival (OS) of ovarian carcinoma in SET-predominant tumors (n=60) was 81 months, while for tumors with SET non-dominant morphology (n=63) and non-SET morphology (n=182) it was 59.7 and 44.7 months, respectively.Conclusion: Predominant (more than 50%) SET morphology was significantly associated with increased survival rates of HGSC. Immunohistochemically, p53, ERCC1, ER, and PR antibodies were applied and only PR antibody positivity was found to be associated with borderline statistical significance for increased survival rates. Our results suggest that SET morphology may be a potential predictive and prognostic marker in managing the treatment strategies of HGSC.","PeriodicalId":45415,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Pathology","volume":"38 3","pages":"240-250"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10508410/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39910214","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}

The status of metastatic disease in the bone marrow (BM) is a predictor of poor outcome. The purpose of this study was to investigate the predictive significance of histopathological examination of BM in NB.Material and method: The study included 61 cases with archival bone marrow biopsy tissues. The cases were evaluated regarding the percentage of metastatic tissue and its differentiation. Primary tumor slides were also reviewed to perform the Shimada classification based on the differentiation status and mitosis-karyorrhexis index. The patients' age, gender, NMYC amplification, clinical risk group, and disease outcome were also noted.Results: Of the 61 cases, 17 had BM involvement. Of those, eight cases (47.1%) were refractory NB showing disease relapse. Based on BM examination, five cases (29.4%) were categorized as complete response, seven (41.2%) as progressive disease, three (17.6%) as minimal disease, and two (11.8%) as stable disease. The progressive disease category was significantly related with refractory disease and NMYC amplification along with the high-risk category (p =0.002 and p= 0.003 respectively). Undifferentiated histology and presence of more than 20% of tumor tissue in the BM biopsy at diagnosis were significantly associated with the progressive disease category (p=0.01 and p < 0.001, respectively).Conclusion: We conclude that evaluating the percentage of metastatic tumor tissue and tumor differentiation in BM biopsies is of clinical importance in the management of neuroblastoma patients.","PeriodicalId":45415,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Pathology","volume":"38 2","pages":"99-105"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9999680/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9687416","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}

It has more aggressive biologic behavior than differentiated thyroid carcinomas, and it is insensitive to treatment with radioactive iodine. Vandetanib and cabozantinib are the newly approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors in advanced stages, but novel effective systemic therapeutics could be crucial and needed for the clinical management of these patients. We aimed to evaluate the Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, which is a novel immunotherapy target, in our MTC cohort, and determine whether it has an association with clinical and pathological features. Material and Method: This retrospective study involved 41 cases of MTC with a median follow-up of 54 months. PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (SP263 clone) was investigated immunohistochemically. Complete and/or partial membranous staining pattern in more than 1% of tumor cells was considered positive. The correlations of PD-L1 expression with clinicopathologic and prognostic features were analyzed. Results: PD-L1 positivity was detected in 5 (12.2%) of 41 tumors. The extent of PD-L1 staining was low ( < 5%) for all tumors. There was no clinicopathologic and prognostic relevance regarding PD-L1 expression in our MTC patients. Conclusion: Although PD-L1 expression could be a potential biomarker to predict the prognosis of various cancers and response to checkpoint inhibitors, we did not find any significant correlation between PD-L1 expression and clinicopathologic features in our cases. Studies with larger patient numbers are still required to perform a more comprehensive analysis.","PeriodicalId":45415,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Pathology","volume":"38 2","pages":"106-113"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9999690/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9701958","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}

Apart from hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, there are various secondary conditions associated with TMA. This study analyzes the clinico-pathological spectrum, etiological factors and renal outcome of TMA diagnosed on renal biopsy.Material and method: A retrospective evaluation of renal biopsies for TMA over 5.5 years was performed. Clinical and laboratory data was collected from patient records.Results: A total of 40 biopsies from 39 patients showed TMA comprising 33 native and 7 transplant biopsies. Malignant hypertension (n=13) was the most common etiology in native biopsies followed by postpartum TMA (n=7), atypical HUS (aHUS) (n=7), and lupus nephritis (n=6). TMA in transplant biopsies was due to acute rejection (n=4) and CNI toxicity (n=3). Serum creatinine was high in most patients (mean 5.6 + 2.5 mg/ dl). aHUS showed the highest mean LDH levels and the lowest average platelet counts. Renal biopsies in malignant hypertension and postpartum TMA showed isolated arterial changes while aHUS and lupus nephritis showed both glomerular and arterial involvement. Postpartum TMA and aHUS had poor renal outcome requiring renal replacement therapy.Conclusion: Most postpartum TMA and aHUS had systemic features of TMA while malignant hypertension and lupus nephritis showed 'isolated renal TMA'. This emphasizes the importance of careful evaluation of renal biopsies even in the absence of systemic features of TMA.","PeriodicalId":45415,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Pathology","volume":"38 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9999687/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9332266","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, a variety of mesenchymal tumors may involve the pancreas and may manifest different clinicopathological characteristics. The literature on mesenchymal tumors in the pancreas is largely limited to individual case reports or analyses of small series, predominantly focusing on radiologic features.Material and method: Authors' institutional and consultation databases were reviewed to identify the mesenchymal tumors involving the pancreas.Results: Forty cases were identified; twenty-five (63%) tumors were benign/borderline, and the remaining fifteen (37%) were malignant. Of the benign/borderline tumors; 9 were solitary fibrous tumors, 6 gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), 4 schwannomas, 2 desmoid type fibromatosis, 1 lymphangioma, 1 ganglioneuroma, 1 inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor, and 1 low grade mesenchymal neoplasm. Malignant tumors included 6 cases of leiomyosarcomas, 4 liposarcomas, 2 rhabdomyosarcomas, 1 epithelioid angiosarcoma, 1 malignant peripheral nerve sheet tumor, and 1 undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma. Four cases (multicystic schwannoma, desmoid fibromatosis, lymphangioma and inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor) were preoperatively misdiagnosed as a primary epithelial tumor of the pancreas.Conclusion: Mesenchymal tumors rarely involve the pancreas. They are usually benign/borderline neoplasms but may be diagnostically challenging, especially clinically/radiologically, as they may form cystic and/or large lesions in the pancreas. Mesenchymal tumors should be considered in both the clinical/radiological and pathological differential diagnosis of pancreatic lesions.","PeriodicalId":45415,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Pathology","volume":"38 1","pages":"46-53"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9999697/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9349530","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}

The mean age of the females was 47 (31-63) years; the male patient was 45 years old. The mean tumor diameter was 6.7 (3.5-19) cm. All tumors had varying proportions of cystic and solid components. Eight cases were well circumscribed, and the others had distinct but irregular borders. Two of the tumors with irregular borders were bulging into the renal sinus. The epithelial component was dominant in most cases. In the epithelial component, macrocyst, microcyst, and tubules were the most common patterns and the most common types of lining epithelium were flat, cuboidal and hobnail. The stromal component was variable in most cases and included hypocellular (mostly collagenous) and cellular areas. In most cases, the cellular stroma had an ovarian-like appearance. Among the other features observed, hyalinization and dystrophic calcification were common.

The aim of the present study is to investigate the relationship between the methylation status and clinicopathological parameters in ependymomas.Material and method: DNA methylation status of CDKN2A, RASSF1A, KLF4 and ZIC2 genes were quantitatively analyzed with pyrosequencing in 44 ependymoma tumor tissues. The relationship of methylation profiles with tumor subtype, histological grade and patient age was statistically analyzed.Results: DNA methylation analyses for CDKN2A revealed no difference in methylation levels. Of the 31 included samples for optimal ZIC2 methylation analysis, 10 were hypermethylated (32.3%) and this change was significantly found in the adult spinal ependymomas (p=0.01). KLF4 hypermethylation was observed in 6 of the overall included 35 samples (17.1%); however, there was no statistically significant relation of the methylation status with tumor subtype, histological grade or age group. RASSF1A hypermethylation was observed in overall 40 included samples with varying methylation levels. Higher levels of hypermethylation were significantly related to the grade 3 histology (p=0.01) and spinal ependymomas (p=0.006). The pediatric cases with grade 3 ependymomas and ependymomas of adulthood showed significantly increased RASSF1A hypermethylation levels (p < 0.001 and p=0.001, respectively).Conclusion: DNA methylation changes are likely to have biological importance in ependymomas.
