🚨💡Excited to share our new publication @Histo_Journal Clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical and genomic characterization of urothelial carcinoma with myxoid and chordoid features @BWHPath @MGHPathology @MGBpathology doi.org/10.1111/his.15… #GUpath #Molpath 🧬

Beautiful angiomyolipoma/PECcoma of kidney displaying all 3 components, dystrophic vasculature (lower R), and perivascular epithelioid (PEC) cells radiating from the blood vessel (upper center) #gupath

Striking abrupt transition in urothelium from normal/reactive changes (R) to flat urothelial carcinoma in situ (L), the latter marked by profound disorder of architecture and cytology #gupath

@GuannanTiffany Spermatocytic tumor with rhabdomyosarcomatous differentiation is rare, with fewer than 30 cases reported. This patient developed metastasis 3 months after the initial diagnosis and was lost to follow-up.

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology wow this is something new (or i don't know), any similar case? followup?

50s M, testicular mass. Diagnosis? Gross photo in the chat. #PathTwitter #PathX @MGHPathology @MGBpathology

@ppcurielpp16 Check out the answer I posted.

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology Embrionario carcinoma with choriocarcinoma

@MedicalSphereAI AIs are right about spermatocytic tumor. The 2nd photo shows the rhabdomyosarcoma component.

This is what the models said this time! 🫣 Most models favor spermatocytic tumor (formerly spermatocytic seminoma), citing the older age, large testicular mass, and the classic three-cell population with spireme chromatin and no fibrous septa/lymphoid infiltrate. The main outlier is one model diagnosing primary testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) instead, based on the patient’s age and an interpretation of the histology as a diffuse large atypical lymphoid infiltrate. 🔗 medicalsphere.ai/cases/ff028f46…

@AmanysaidP 👍The 2nd photo shows the rhabdomyosarcoma component. I've posted the MyoD1 IHC.

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology Speematocytic tumour 🧐

@JamesCo97010981 👍 MyoD IHC posted. Both CD45 and CD30 are negative.

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology spermatocytic seminoma w/sarcoma but with limited exp. would do IHC. R/O NHL, anaplastic

@JooMMdeSousa1 🎯

@TingZhaoPathdoc @AnaPath10 @MGHPathology @MGBpathology Spermatocitic tumour associated with rabdosarcomatous differentiation? First guess

@MAHoureih It's spermatocytic tumor with rhabdomyosarcomatous differentiation. Checked out the answer I posted.

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology Anaplastic Spermatocytic Seminoma 🤔

@GuannanTiffany 👍The 2nd photo shows the rhabdomyosarcoma component. I've posted the MyoD1 IHC.

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology I know Spermatocytic Tumor can look quite dramatic , if not, I would also entertain other possibilities, such as Anaplastic Lymphoma etc.

@Venkateshgilly2 🎯

@TingZhaoPathdoc @MGHPathology @MGBpathology Spermatocytic tumour with sarcomatoid transformation

@yjywang The primary tumor was basaloid. Check the link below. The lymphoid background in the lymph node might give it a lymphoepithelioma-like appearance. x.com/TingZhaoPathdo…

@TingZhaoPathdoc @IntSocUropath @MGBpathology @MGHPathology Wonder which type (basaloid, warty, clear cell, LEL) the original HPV-associated SCC is classified as? The sneaky reticulated metastatic pattern is a little bit lymphoepithelioma-like (Schmincke pattern)!

60s M, inguinal lymph node. Diagnosis? #PathTwitter @MGBpathology @MGHPathology

🚨Don’t miss the first webinar in the USCAP Professional Development Series next Tuesday (May 12)! 🌟“From Insight to Impact: Leadership Lessons in Pathology” by Dr. Sarah Dry 🌟Moderated by Dr. Terri Jones 🌟An initiative of the membership committee @TEwaJonesMD @RaulSGonzalezMD @DrCristinaMagi @TheUSCAP #Pathology #USCAP #Leadership

@rovingatuscap @drmehrarohit @LaraHarikMD @Mvgs1706 @JLHornick @slusagar @aimhaider @h_alahmadie @JieFuChen2 @DrSwatiBhardwaj Glad you are back!😊

After a bit of a break marked by a "hack" of my account (no, I don't do crypto😂), back with GU pathology - Depicted here: an increasingly common phenomenon with the rise of transperineal (TP) prostate biopsy - hair shaft embedded in prostatic tissue - completely benign

@RepettoF_MD @BIDMCpath @harvardmed @RosNazarianMD @MGBpathology I'm so happy for you, Federico!!! Congrats!🎉 @Vik_deshpandeMD @Mvgs1706 @BIDMCpath

I couldn’t be happier to share that I have accepted a position as a Dermatopathology Fellow at @BIDMCpath/@harvardmed. I’m incredibly grateful and excited for this next chapter in my training. 😁🙌
