Lung mass, 79F, CK7+/CK20-/TTF1+/Napsin A+ -> primary lung adenoCA, right?
Well...the dangers of relying only on #IHCPath!
Check out this illustrative paper in IJSP (link: https://t.co/21s6kNcSr3) by Alfonso-Rosa et al. describing an important pitfall!

🚨Neuroendocrine marker expression in mucosal melanomas of the H&N might represent an important diagnostic pitfall!
Shah et al. in IJSP (link: https://t.co/jEOcoWxX5u) show how synaptophysin alone might not be the best screening marker in the dx work-up.
