Abstract. Background: The encapsulated follicular variant (EFV) of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most discussed entity in thyroid pathology. Recently, the question of whether or not EFV-PTC is a malignant entity has been the subject of renewed discussion in the light of recent molecular and clinical studies. The aim of this study was toSigueSigue leyendo «New Concept of the Encapsulated Follicular Variant of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and Its Impact on the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology: A Single-Institute Experience.»

Risk of HSIL (CIN 2–3) on colposcopic biopsy is minimal in postmenopausal women with LSIL on cytology and a negative HRHPV test.
Abstract. Background: Current cervical cancer screening guidelines recommend a 1-year follow-up period for patients with a postmenopausal low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) who are test negative for high-risk human papillomavirus (HrHPV). The aim of this study was to assess whether such patients had an increased immediate risk of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. Methods: We assessedSigueSigue leyendo «Risk of HSIL (CIN 2–3) on colposcopic biopsy is minimal in postmenopausal women with LSIL on cytology and a negative HRHPV test.»
Management of ASC-US or LSIL of the uterine cervix with human papilloma virus infection among young women aged less than 25 years.
Abstract.Current ASCCP guidelines recommend repeat cytology 12 months after HPV-positive results in women aged 21–24 years with either atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS) or a low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL). The purpose of this study was to validate an algorithm in such women with ASCUS or LSIL. A multicenter cross-sectional study was carriedSigueSigue leyendo «Management of ASC-US or LSIL of the uterine cervix with human papilloma virus infection among young women aged less than 25 years.»
Breslow density is a novel prognostic feature in cutaneous malignant melanoma.
Abstract. Aims: In 1970, Breslow described his eponymously named thickness measurement. No-one has sought to enhance the Breslow thickness (BT). The aim of this study was to demonstrate a proof of concept that the density of melanoma cells at the position where the BT is measured is a morphological prognostic biomarker, which we nameSigueSigue leyendo «Breslow density is a novel prognostic feature in cutaneous malignant melanoma.»

Modeling high-grade serous carcinoma: how converging insights into pathogenesis and genetics are driving better experimental platforms.
Paul Michael Jones and Ronny Drapkin. Department of Medical Oncology, Harvard Medical School, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, USA. Recent developments in the study of epithelial ovarian cancer have called into question the traditional views regarding the site of tumor initiation. Histopathologic studies and genomic analyses suggest that extra-ovarian sites, like the fallopian tube, maySigueSigue leyendo «Modeling high-grade serous carcinoma: how converging insights into pathogenesis and genetics are driving better experimental platforms.»
The fallopian tube as the origin of non-uterine pelvic high-grade serous carcinoma.
Ieera Madan Aggarwal, Yu Hui Lim, Timothy Yong Kuei Lim. Abstract. Key content: Advances in histopathology, immunohistochemistry and molecular genetics have led to evidence that the fimbrial end of the fallopian tube may be the source of origin of non-uterine high-grade pelvic serous carcinoma (HGPSC). Most of the evidence comes from studies in risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomySigueSigue leyendo «The fallopian tube as the origin of non-uterine pelvic high-grade serous carcinoma.»
