BACKGROUND: The HER-2/neu gene is amplified in 20-30% of human breast cancers and has been shown to have prognostic and predictive value for treatment with chemotherapy, hormone therapy and antibodies against the HER-2/neu domain (trastuzumab). The aim of our study was to evaluate the reliability of HER-2/neu determination by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on fine-needle aspirates (FNAs) from primary breast cancer patients by comparison with the results obtained by FISH and immunohistochemistry (IHC) on the corresponding histological sections. MATERIALS AND METHODS: HER-2/neu amplification was determined by FISH on 66 breast cancer FNAs. Twenty-three and 36 corresponding formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections were assayed by FISH and by IHC, respectively, in order to detect HER-2/neu amplification and HER-2/neu protein expression. RESULTS: Twenty-seven per cent (18/66) of breast cancer FNAs showed amplification of HER-2/neu by FISH. Paired results by FISH cytology and FISH histology were available in 22 cases. Concordance was 91% (20/22). Paired results by FISH cytology and IHC were available in 36 cases. Concordance was 92% (33/36). Eighteen of 66 breast cancer FNAs were also submitted to flow cytometric DNA analysis. None of the diploid cases showed HER-2/neu amplification by FISH. Six out of the eight aneuploid cases were amplified and two were polysomic. CONCLUSIONS: HER-2/neu gene amplification can be reliably estimated by FISH on breast cancer FNAs and a good correlation has been found between FISH and IHC results from the corresponding histological sections.  相似文献

Objective: UroVysion (Abbott Molecular, Inc., Illinois, USA) is based on multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH). It has been used successfully in the USA following its Food and Drug Administration approval in 2001. However,the technology was not approved for use in Japan until 2017. Cystoscopy and urine cytology are the most frequentlyused examinations to detect bladder cancer in Japan, and there are only a few reports regarding the performance ofUroVysion. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the diagnostic accuracy of UroVysion FISH in Japanesepatients whose tumors are detected by cystoscopy before transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). Methods:From April 2018 to July 2018, a total of 40 patients who were diagnosed as having bladder tumors by cystoscopy, andtherefore underwent TURBT were registered in this study. One day before TURBT, urine cytology and UroVysionFISH were used in order to compare the accuracy with which they could detect bladder carcinoma, as confirmed bypathological results of TURBT. Results: The pathological results of TURBT showed urothelial carcinoma in 33 cases.Urine cytology showed positive results for 0 cases (0%), suspicious results for 10 cases (30.3%), and negative resultsfor 23 cases (69.7%). On the other hand, UroVysion FISH indicated 9 positive cases (27.3%) and 24 negative cases(72.7%). There were 19 cases of urothelial carcinoma (57.6%) that were not detected by either method. Conclusion:We conclude that UroVysion FISH alone is insufficient to detect bladder cancer and that cystoscopy is essential for theoptimum detection or follow up of bladder cancer cases in our hospital.  相似文献

Diagnosis of malignant cells in effusions is important for staging procedures and resulting therapeutic decisions. Cytodiagnostics in effusions is sometimes difficult since reactive mesothelial cells can mimic malignant cells. We used fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) in single-colour or if appropriate in dual-colour evaluation to detect chromosomal aberrations in effusion cells as markers of malignancy, to raise the diagnostic yield. Cytologic and FISH evaluations--by using probes representing several chromosomes always including chromosomes 11 and 17--were performed in 358 effusion fluids. Cytology was positive for malignancy in 44.4% of all effusions, whereas FISH was positive in 53.9% (P=0.0001). The combination of cytology and FISH was diagnostic for malignancy in 60.9% of effusions. Diagnostic superiority of FISH was demonstrated in effusions from breast cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, and in effusions from the entire group of gynaecological and gastrointestinal carcinomas. In transudates (effusion protein <2.5 g dl(-1)), malignant cells were detectable by cytology, FISH, and combined use of both methods in 18.6, 30, and 37.1% of effusions, respectively, suggesting that cytologic and molecular analysis should be performed also with transudates. In conclusion, FISH in combination with conventional cytology is a highly sensitive and specific diagnostic tool for detecting malignant cells in effusions.  相似文献

It is not known whether the HER2 status of malignant CSF cells coincides with that of the original breast carcinoma cells. We investigated whether CSF cytology specimens were suitable to evaluate HER2 status by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in patient with leptomeningeal metastasis (LM). Both formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) breast cancer tissue and liquid based CSF cytology specimens were evaluated for HER2 status in 16 patients with LM. We evaluated HER2 gene amplification using FISH on destained CSF cytology slides containing a minimum of 20 malignant cells per slide, and compared these with the HER2 status by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or FISH in FFPE tissues. HER2 was considered positive when the HER2:CEP17 ratio was ≥2.0 or IHC 3+. Of 16 cases, four were HER2 positive and 12 were HER2 negative by FISH analysis in CSF cytology. All CSF-positive cases were HER2 positive by IHC in FFPE tissue. Of 12 HER2 FISH-negative cases in CSF cytology, 10 were HER2 negative (IHC 0 or 1+) and two were IHC 2+ in FFPE tissue. Two IHC 2+ cases had HER2:CEP17 ratios of 1.27 and 2.1, respectively, by FISH in FFPE tissue. As a result, the HER2 status concordance rate between metastatic breast cancer cells in CSF and FFPE primary tissue by IHC and FISH was very high. When CSF cytology specimens were appropriately prepared and had adequate cellularity without dry artifacts, the CSF cytology was suitable to evaluate HER2 status by FISH analysis in patients with LM.  相似文献

BackgroundThere is a need to improve the performance of urine cytology in bladder cancer diagnosis. We assessed the diagnostic performance of (i) telomerase activity detected by telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) assay, (ii) cytology and TRAP assay in parallel, (iii) cytology in parallel with the in-series combination of TRAP assay and FISH analysis, and (iv) the in-series combination of TRAP assay and FISH analysis.Patients and methodsCross-sectional study of 289 consecutive patients who presented with urinary symptoms at a north Italian hospital between 2007 and 2008. All underwent cystoscopy and cytology evaluation, and conclusive results were available for TRAP assay and FISH analysis.ResultsSensitivity and specificity were 0.39 and 0.83, respectively, for cytology; 0.66 and 0.72 for TRAP; 0.78 and 0.60 for the combination of cytology and TRAP; 0.78 and 0.78 for the combination of cytology, TRAP, and FISH; and 0.65 and 0.93 for the combination of TRAP and FISH. All differences versus cytology alone were significant (P ≤ 0.011).ConclusionCompared with cytology alone, the combination of cytology, TRAP, and FISH provided the best trade-off between increase in sensitivity and loss in specificity, especially among non-bleeding patients, low-grade cancers, and early-stage cancers.  相似文献

Molecular markers reliably predicting failure or success of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG) in the treatment of nonmuscle‐invasive urothelial bladder cancer (NMIBC) are lacking. The aim of our study was to evaluate the value of cytology and chromosomal aberrations detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in predicting failure to BCG therapy. Sixty‐eight patients with NMIBC were prospectively recruited. Bladder washings collected before and after BCG instillation were analyzed by conventional cytology and by multitarget FISH assay (UroVysion®, Abbott/Vysis, Des Plaines, IL) for aberrations of chromosomes 3, 7, 17 and 9p21. Persistent and recurrent bladder cancers were defined as positive events during follow‐up. Twenty‐six of 68 (38%) NMIBC failed to BCG. Both positive post‐BCG cytology and positive post‐BCG FISH were significantly associated with failure of BCG (hazard ratio (HR)= 5.1 and HR= 5.6, respectively; p < 0.001 each) when compared to those with negative results. In the subgroup of nondefinitive cytology (all except those with unequivocally positive cytology), FISH was superior to cytology as a marker of relapse (HR= 6.2 and 1.4, respectively). Cytology and FISH in post‐BCG bladder washings are highly interrelated and a positive result predicts failure to BCG therapy in patients with NMIBC equally well. FISH is most useful in the diagnostically less certain cytology categories but does not provide additional information in clearly malignant cytology. © 2009 UICC  相似文献
