BAL with the most perfect Curschmann spiral #CytoPath #PathTwitter

IMPRESSIVE example, with a perfect Cyto-Histo correlation in a "Pancreatic Adenosquamous Carcinoma" metastatic to the liver. A highly aggressive subtype of PDAC with a mean survival of 12 months or less. (FNA with core biopsy and p40 IHC).

With the known history of renal cell carcinoma, this tissue fragment in the cell block of a pleural effusion is diagnostic of metastasis and may not even need confirmation by a PAX8 IHC.

So easy to disregard these malignant cells as "reactive mesothelial" in a pleural fluid involved by the patient's known gastric adenocarcinoma. A closer look depicts faint cytoplasmic mucin.

Significance of ROSE in gross examination of FNA specimens and small core biopsies. Here are core biopsies of a lymph node with metastatic melanoma , note their black color. #CytoPro @IACytology @IAPCentral @JHUPath @cytopathology #melanoma

Beautiful "chicken wire" appearance of colloid... though perhaps for spooky season it should be known as the spider web appearance! 🕸️#CytoPath #PathTwitter #PathArt 🕸️

Impressive appearance of malignant epithelial fragments suspended in pools of mucin, creating a vague "whirlpool" appearance - "Colloid Carcinoma of Breast". (FNA)

Classic architecture of a "Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma" on FNA. Focal features suggest a "Tall Cell" subtype. It's not uncommon to find a second pattern of singly dispersed cells.
