Rooky Tuesday!
🔬 Warty dyskeratoma 😎🫡💪
🥣 Cup-shaped, keratin-filled follicular invagination
✂️ Suprabasal acantholysis with villi
🎯 Dyskeratosis: corps ronds & grains
🔍 Differentials
• Acantholytic dyskeratotic acanthoma: lacks follicular cup
• Darier/Grover disease: clinical distribution
• Acantholytic SCC: atypia & invasion #pathology #pathologists #pathTwitter #dermpath #dermatology #dermtwitter

🔥 Hot off the press! We’re pleased to share two cases of iododerma, both first diagnosed at #MDACCPath #dermpath. This peculiar entity may be underdiagnosed due to a lack of recognition. The article is open access, so check it out! 😆🔬

24-year-old man with a wrist lesion, being evaluated for Mohs 🙂 Blue nevus–type melanocytoma is currently divorcing itself from PEM on molecular grounds:
🧩 Biphasic: dendritic blue nevus + cellular ovoid/spindle component
🧬 GNAQ/GNA11 pathway

Amazing !
I’m incredibly proud & excited to present Dr. Guannan Zhang as the newest member of our GU Pathology Team at BWH/MGB! Today is her first day on service - and I know she will be a great addition to our ‘GU family’!🔬 #gurocks #gupathfamily @GuannanTiffany @BWHPath @MGBpathology

I just gave a lecture about this.
This is bullous pemphigoid: IgG antibodies against 180, 230 or p200 kDa antigens within the DEJ (hemidesmosome) and it looks like this: subepidermal inflammatory eosinophilic bulla.

🔬 Granular cell tumor — high-yield pearls
📍 Clinical
• Solitary, slow-growing, firm nodule
• Head/neck common, especially tongue 👅
• Usually benign; malignant tumors are rare
🧫 Histology
• Poorly circumscribed, infiltrative dermal/subcutaneous neoplasm
• Large polygonal cells with abundant coarse eosinophilic granular cytoplasm
• 🔥 Granules = numerous intracytoplasmic lysosomes/autophagolysosomes
• PASD+, diastase-resistant granules (do you know anybody who does it?)
• Cells dissect between collagen bundles and may involve nerves or skeletal muscle
• Overlying pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia may mimic SCC ⚠️
🧬 IHC
• Conventional granular cell tumor = Schwannian, S100+/SOX10+
• Non-neural granular cell tumor = non-Schwannian, S100−/SOX10−

🟡 Verruciform xanthoma
👀 Often looks like a wart clinically: solitary, slow-growing, verrucous/papillomatous plaque or nodule, classically oral or anogenital.
🔬 Histo: verrucous/psoriasiform hyperplasia + hyperparakeratosis ± neutrophils.
🫧 Don’t miss the clue: foamy macrophages packed superficially in the papillary dermis between rete ridges.
💡 Wart-like lesion + superficial foam cells → think verruciform xanthoma.

Going into derm? This one’s for you! 👇
Skip it if you’re just derm-curious or a total beginner 🙂
🔬 Histo: Psoriasiform dermatitis (see below).
👀 Clinical: they really want eczema!
🧠 Beyond morphology: Can we really see everything on H&E? How many stains/ancillary are enough? There is always some sponge around the corner!
🧬 Cytokine ISH : NOS2 and IL17 were positive, supporting psoriasis and consistent with the histopathology. IL13 and IFNG were negative (attached table for expression patterns).
🔬 Histo is king—but not the whole kingdom anymore! #pathology #pathologists #pathTwitter #dermpath #dermatology #dermtwitter

🦴 Calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) — Radiesse/Radiesse+*
✅ FDA: facial wrinkles/folds, jawline contour, dorsal hand volume loss. Bx on forehead - is a NO!
👀 Clinical: firm nodules; superficial/lip nodules classic
🔬 Histo: gray-green granular/crinkled spheroids + giant cells
🧪 Stains/polarization: calcium stain = no bueno, not really polarizing either.
⚖️ vs PMMA: CaHA = granular/crinkled; PMMA = smooth, uniform microspheres.
✅ Happy to teach you how to estimate when the filler was injected, even when the patient insists they never had it...
✅ Patients often have multiple fillers—“foreign body reaction” is not enough. Next question: Which filler is it? Can you tell?
