Lobular lushness, different spectra of lobular disease in the same field: On the left, classic type LCIS with “small” or Type A cells (top) and“large” or Type B cells (bottom). ILC (right) with cells of similar morphology to those of Type A LCIS #breastpath#pathpearls#pathart
It’s finally out and free to read! The @MSKPathology experience using FNA supernatant for BRAF detection in high-grade thyroid cancers (mostly ATCs). Our findings: faster and more accurate than immunostains. In this race against the clock, every minute counts!
New and #OpenAccess! Ultrarapid BRAF mutation detection on supernatant cell-free DNA obtained by FNA: An accurate and expedient method for BRAF assessment in aggressive thyroid carcinomas

Intracytoplasmic mucin vacuoles give away this lung tumor. Although this finding is sufficient to justify the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma, confirmatory TTF-1 immunostain was positive.

@railkingprepper @jmad2022 @petrogustavo Despite the vulgarity you’re still wrong, Columbian and Colombian are different words, you just didn’t care to read the results of your own search 👇🏽
Classic pulmonary hamartoma on FNA:
☑️ Metachromatic fibrillar stroma w bland spindle cells
☑️ Scattered bland type 2 pneumocytes
☑️ Mature mesenchymal elements (cartilage seen here)
🧬 Called “hamartoma” but most actually harbor t(3;12) HMGA2::LPP fusions

I never cease to be amazed at the beauty of polarizing foreign material and the fabulous colors that result from the interference of two components of light split by an anisotropic specimen. In this case, ruptured polyethylene liner of a prosthetic knee #PathTwitter
@Dermpathl Oh yes it can happen all over the Americas, it was first described by Alejandro Posadas in Buenos Aires after all 😅 I trained in NY so we don’t see them that often either, which I why I couldn’t miss the opportunity to photograph such good morphology
@MdTushir Ferruginous & asbestos bodies are not interchangeable. Ferruginous body is any fiber that gets iron deposits around, one can only call it asbestos body if the core is clear. So while an asbestos body is a ferruginous body, not all ferruginous bodies are asbestos bodies 🤓
