Two cases of benign salivary gland pleomorphic adenomas metastatic to bone (benign-metastasizing pleomorphic adenomas) diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy are presented. Both primary tumors were slightly atypical cytologically but neither case demonstrated features of carcinoma. The metastatic lesions contained benign epithelial, myoepithelial, and stromal components. In both cases the clinical history was either not known by the radiologist or not communicated to the cytopathologist interpreting the case, and a primary tumor of bone was the leading clinical diagnosis. Obtaining pertinent clinical history and comparing the cytomorphology of the bone aspirate with the primary parotid tumor allowed for an accurate diagnosis in both cases. The differential diagnosis with primary bone tumors is discussed and the importance of clinical history is emphasized. 相似文献

Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is an uncommon and highly aggressive neoplasm that reveals histopathologic features resembling infiltrating duct carcinoma of the breast and prostate. SDC arising on the basis of preexisting pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is very rare. This report describes the fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology of a case of SDC ex PA. FNA smears were cellular with cells with large, pleomorphic nuclei, some prominent nucleoli, and finely vacuolated cytoplasm. The neoplastic cells were forming groups, sheets, and papillary structures and a cribriform pattern was present in some sheets. Mitotic figures were frequently seen. Necrosis was prominent in the background. Histologic sections of the tumor revealed areas of comedo carcinoma, papillary carcinoma, and infiltrative carcinoma as well as multiple foci of PA. The presence of a cribriform pattern, tumor cells resembling breast ductal carcinoma cells, and a necrotic background are helpful features for an accurate cytodiagnosis of SDC. Diagn.

A 76‐year‐old Japanese woman had noticed an asymptomatic and palpable mass in her left parotid gland region for 20 years. The tumor had showed rapid growth during the last two months. Therefore, the tumor was clinically suspected of being a malignant tumor and was surgically resected. A histopathological examination revealed that the tumor consisted of two different histopathological neoplastic components accompanied by hyalinized fibrosis at the center of the tumor. The two‐neoplastic components were squamous cell carcinoma and salivary duct carcinoma. The tumor was suspected to be a carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma after considering the clinical course and the histopathological findings, such as hyalinized fibrosis at the center of the tumor. There was no evidence of recurrence at 30 months after the surgical resection. 相似文献

Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign neoplasm of the parotid gland. However, bilateral synchronous pleomorphic adenomas occur infrequently. We report a case of bilateral synchronous pleomorphic adenoma involving the parotid gland in a 50-yr-old man diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy. 相似文献

Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA) of the salivary glands is a relatively rare carcinoma. The detection rate of the carcinoma component in the cytological specimens is not high and may be challenging in cytological examination. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the cytological specimens of CXPA with emphasis on the detection of the carcinoma component. We reviewed the cytological characteristics of patients histopathologically diagnosed with CXPA who underwent preoperative cytological examination. Of the 10 patients enrolled in the study, 8 had tumors located in the parotid gland, and 2 in the submandibular gland. A review of the cytological specimens revealed the presence of the carcinoma component in all 10 cases and the pleomorphic adenoma (PA) component in 6 cases, although initial cytodiagnosis detected the carcinoma component in 8 cases. The cytological feature of this component was the presence of variable‐sized clusters of polygonal cells with relatively rich cytoplasm and large round to oval nuclei in a necrotic background. Interestingly, carcinoma cells mixed with the PA component were also present. On histopathological analysis, 7 cases were intracapsular, and the remaining 3 cases were widely invasive CXPA. Further, 9 cases had salivary duct carcinoma as carcinoma component. In conclusion, these findings show that careful detection of the carcinoma cells, particularly within the PA component, is crucial for early detection of CXPA, and the presence of necrosis might help with the detection of the carcinoma component. 相似文献

Five cases of chordoma, diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy, are presented. Four cases were histologically confirmed, and in one, immunocytochemical and ultrastructural studies were performed on both the aspirate and tissue specimen. Four cases presented as sacral masses, while in the fifth case, a destructive lesion of the clivus extended into the soft tissues of the lateral neck. A spectrum of cytomorphologic features was encountered including the presence of abundant microtissue fragments and cells in a dissociate pattern, often with abundant metachromatic extracellular matrix. Stellate and cuboidal cells often contained intracytoplasmic vacuoles of varying sizes. Intranuclear inclusions, mitotic figures, and anisonucleosis were prominent features of several cases. Immunoperoxidase studies on a single case demonstrated cytoplasmic staining for low- and high-molecular-weight cytokeratins, vimentin, and epithelial membrane antigen, while glial fibrillary acidic protein and carcinoembryonic antigen were negative. Ultrastructural features included the presence of mitochondrial endoplasmic reticulum complexes, occasional desmosome-like junctions, and abundant extracellular matrix adherent to the tumor cells. We believe the cytomorphologic findings are characteristic and, when taken in concert with immunocytochemical and ultrastructural studies, allow differentiation of chordoma from other primary or metastatic neoplasms occurring in bone. As demonstrated in our series, chordoma is often an unsuspected diagnosis. We believe that FNA biopsy of these lesions can lead to a correct preoperative diagnosis and may also be utilized to document recurrence and thus facilitate the evaluation and management of patients with these lesions. 相似文献

Two cases of malignant thymic neoplasms diagnosed by transthoracic fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy under fluoroscopic and computerized axial tomography (CT) guidance with histologic, immunocytochemical, and ultrastructural confirmation are presented. The clinical and cytomorphologic features of the first case were typical of a malignant thymoma. A characteristic biphasic cell population of benign epithelial cells and mature lymphocytes was seen in Diff-Quik- and Papanicolaou-stained smears from the anterior mediastinal mass and the paravertebral metastasis and was confirmed by histologic examination. Immunoperoxidase studies for T and B cell subsets demonstrated lymphocytes with the thymic lymphocyte phenotype (Leu 6). Electron microscopic (EM) examination revealed epithelial cells with desmosomal attachments, tonofilaments, and extended cell processes along with mature lymphocytes. FNA biopsy of the second case demonstrated features of a thymic carcinoma. Individually scattered and loosely clustered small groups of markedly anaplastic and pleomorphic large cells were seen both in the Diff-Quik- and Papanicolaou-stained smears. EM performed on the FNA specimen demonstrated the poorly differentiated epithelial nature of the malignancy. The mediastinal mass was partially resected and demonstrated an undifferentiated carcinoma staining positively for low-molecular-weight cytokeratin. Ultrastructure demonstrated cell attachments and relationships consistent with carcinoma. The lack of a lung or other extrapulmonary primary tumor was consistent with a thymic carcinoma. These cases demonstrate the value of performing EM and immunocytochemistry on material obtained by fine-needle aspiration, which can aid in establishing the correct diagnosis and facilitate the clinical management of patients with malignant thymic neoplasms. 相似文献

A patient with actinomyces infection of the posterior neck was diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy. The lesion presented as a recurrent, firm, and indurated mass that was clinically diagnosed as adenitis and cellulitis and was thought to be a lymphoma 6 months after the onset of his illness. Smears and cell block sections of the aspirate showed characteristic colonies ("sulfur granules") of actinomyces. Subsequent regional lymph node biopsy revealed reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. 相似文献

The incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma arising in a thyroglossal duct cyst is rare and occurs in about 1 % of thyroglossal duct cysts. Only 17 such cases diagnosed with fine-needle aspiration biopsy have been previously reported in the English-language literature, with a diagnostic rate of 53%. In this article, the cytologic features of the current case are emphasized and those of the previous reported cases are briefly reviewed. Diagnostic pitfalls of papillary carcinoma arising in thyroglossal duct cysts diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy are also discussed. 相似文献

A newborn male infant presented with multiple subcutaneous and parenchymal lesions. These lesions, thought clinically to represent disseminated neuroblastoma, were assessed via fine-needle aspiration biopsy. The spindled cells and associated collagen were interpreted as a type of fibromatosis, most probably infantile myofibromatosis. This diagnosis was subsequently confirmed histologically, and the patient experienced spontaneous involution or regression of all lesions by 18 mo of age. To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of this entity initially suggested on the basis of a fine-needle aspiration biopsy specimen. 相似文献

Malignant mixed tumors of the salivary glands, encompassing carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (ca ex PA), carcinosarcoma and metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma (mPA), are rare neoplasms. Ca ex PA arises in a pre-existing pleomorphic adenoma (PA). When the malignant component does not breach the capsule of the parent PA, the lesion is termed intracapsular ca ex PA, a neoplasm which is thought to have no metastatic potential. Metastatic deposits of ca ex PA are composed exclusively of malignant elements or mixed benign and malignant components. We describe the case of a 62-year-old female with an intracapsular ca ex PA of the buccal mucosa with subsequent metastases to the lung. The metastatic deposits resembled benign PA with no histological evidence of malignancy. This pattern of spread is described with mPA, an entity that caused controversy in the past regarding its exact classification as a benign or malignant tumor. The possibility that ca ex PA originates from a mPA, with intracapsular ca ex PA representing an intermediate lesion in a histological continuum, is discussed. 相似文献

Hydatid cyst: primary diagnosis by fine-needle aspiration biopsy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Two cases of soft-tissues echinococcosis are presented in which the definitive diagnosis was established by identifying laminated layer remnants on fine-needle aspiration smears. Large polygonal pieces of acellular material with delicate parallel striations were seen, while neither scolices nor hooklets were found. The cases reported most likely represent the occurrence of sterile hydatid cysts. A diagnosis of echinococcosis should be considered when fragments suggestive of laminated layer are identified on smears, even in unusual sites and without evidence of hooklets and/or scolices. 相似文献

Liesegang rings are lamellated concretions commonly found in chronic cystic lesions that are inflamed, necrotic, fibrotic, or hemorrhagic. We report on an unusual case of a 14-yr-old girl with an acute, rapidly enlarging solid submental mass in which Liesegang rings were identified on aspirate smears. 相似文献

Salivary duct carcinoma is a high grade malignancy which histologically strongly resembles ductal carcinoma of the breast. The findings from five cases of histologically proven salivary duct carcinoma sampled by preoperative fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology are presented. Characteristic cytomorphologic features include cohesive clusters and flat sheets of epithelial cells which display a cribriform pattern with eccentrically located, hyperchromatic nuclei, abundant finely granular cytoplasm, and necrosis in the smear background.

Columnar cell lesions (CCLs) have been described histologically. Frequently, they are noted in biopsies performed for calcifications and are associated with an increased risk of malignancy in the presence of atypia. We sought to characterize the cytological features of CCLs in fine-needle aspirations (FNAs). Twenty FNAs with subsequent histology diagnoses of CCL without carcinoma were reviewed retrospectively. Eighteen of 20 cases were classified as "atypical" on cytology; they had cohesive three-dimensional clusters of enlarged polygonal epithelial cells intermixed with myoepithelial cells in the centers and palisading columnar cells peripherally. Five of these had cytological or architectural atypia on subsequent biopsies, but no significant differences were noted among the 18 aspirates. Calcifications (2/18), snouts (9/18), and bipolar nuclei (11/18) were also identified. The remaining 2/20 FNAs were interpreted as negative because of scant cellularity. In conclusion, CCLs have characteristic cytological traits, and because they may be associated with carcinoma, their recognition is important. 相似文献
