Nuclear grade scoring on cytology is simple to perform, and is predictive of high grade patterns. Its inclusion in routine reporting of cytology samples of lung ADs may be valuable.
Manual IHC is equally effective in the detection of ALK-rearranged cases as automated methods. It can be easily integrated as a screening method into routine practice thus reducing the cost of automated systems. However, equivocal cases should be tested by approved methods.
A 45-year-old woman was referred from Department of Dermatology to Surgery outpatient department with pruritus since 6 months and an episode of jaundice that lasted for 15 days about 6 months ago. She was referred with a contrast-enhanced MRI finding that showed a small lesion in the lower end of common bile duct. Endoscopy-guided biopsy was performed twice at our hospital, the second revealed low grade dysplasia. Consequently, she underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy. Intraoperatively, there were both vascular and biliary anatomical variations that were missed on preoperative images. On histopathological examination, it turned out to be a mixed variety of intraductal papillary neoplasm of bile duct (IPNB). As all findings were rare in one, hence, we present this case of IPNB that presented to us with variable clinical, radiological, surgical and pathological findings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
