    13 - Stromal Prostatic Tumor, a rare and challenging diagnosis. A case report.- Dr. Veronica Bengiò
    Apr 21 2023
    Stromal prostatic tumor is a rare lesion thaspan a spectrum from monophasic to biphasic (phyllodes type) tumors, with controversial terminology and pathology, whose most accepted terminology is Prostatic stromal tumors with uncertain malignant potential (STUMP); they generally have good prognosis, although may have recur, invade locally or metastasize. Owing to the rarity of this tumor, there is not yet a consensus on appropriate management.

    We report a case of a 81 year old man with lower urinary tract symptoms, abnormal digital rectal examination, and high PSA level. Three nodular pieces of prostate were resected by open surgery (370 grams) When cut, they are solid, with an increased consistency, a whitish color and a trabeculated appearance. Microscopically, there is proliferation of spindle cells, arranged in irregular and random bundles, surrounded by abundant collagenous stroma, with slight focal atypia. A panel of ancillary techniques of IHC was carried out, which confirmed the diagnosis, and ruled out differential diagnoses. We highlight this pathology for its low frequency and the value of accurate histopathological diagnosis differentiating it from other pathologies.

    11 - IHC Approach to the differential diagnosis of small blue round cell tumors - Dr. Armen Mkhitary
    Apr 21 2023
    Small, blue, round cell tumors (SBRCT) is a group of highly heterogeneous malignant and aggressive tumors, which can occur at any age.
    Tumors in this group are sharing similar morphological appearance, and characterized by small, round nuclei and a narrow cytoplasm, thus gaining more blue color in H&E stained slides.
    The tumors of this group, which more commonly encountered in children include lymphoblastic lymphoma, Ewing’s sarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, nephroblastoma, neuroblastoma, medulloblastoma, retinoblastoma, and hepatoblastoma.
    Other tumors, such as small cell carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, synovial sarcoma, desmoplastic round cell tumor, mesenchymal chondrosarcoma, small cell osteosarcoma and olfactory neuroblastoma are traditionally accepted to be more common in adults.
    Differential diagnosis of these tumors is difficult and sometimes challenging for pediatric pathologists. Despite the similar immunohistochemical expression patterns of some antigens (CD56, CD99), we discuss and present our insight of this problem.
