“…Indeed, we also observed certain morphologic parameters (outside of those common to all TS) present within each group of TS (Table ). These findings largely overlap with several previous studies as reported by other laboratories, as well as our own . For example, other series have documented that typical EWS often displays round cells with scant cytoplasm and micronucleoli, which is very similar to the cases examined.…”

“…TS was also evaluated for morphological features that are suggestive of each type of TS. Several studies have identified cytological features that may be present in individual TS . Indeed, we also observed certain morphologic parameters (outside of those common to all TS) present within each group of TS (Table ).…”

“…The available reports of ALK1 LBCL in the cytology literature focus on potential pitfalls of diagnosis such as the possibility of mistakenly diagnosing this disease as a carcinoma secondary to epithelioid morphology with cohesiveness/clustering, pseudo-acinar or pseudo-papillary formations, and abundant cytoplasm. [31][32][33][34][35][36][37] To our knowledge, the current case represents the first reported FNA of ALK1 LBCL with tigroid backgrounds. [28][29][30] Tigroid backgrounds are classically present in smears and scrape preparations made from seminomatous germ cell tumors and are described as having delicate, blue-gray, frothy background material dispersed in a pattern of interlacing ribbons, felt reminiscent of a tiger's coat pattern.…”

“…This phenomenon has been previously reported in tumor types other than seminoma, including other malignancies such as clear cell carcinomas of the female genital tract, glycogen-rich squamous cell carcinomas, fetal adenocarcinomas of the lung, clear cell carcinomas of the salivary glands, and clear cell sarcomas. [31][32][33][34][35][36][37] To our knowledge, the current case represents the first reported FNA of ALK1 LBCL with tigroid backgrounds. Out of interest, Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) and Periodic Acid Schiff with diastase (DPAS) stains were performed on tissue sections from the biopsy specimen in this case.…”
