Laryngeal carcinosarcoma (sarcomatoid SCC). Sometimes you have to look v hard to find any evidence of epithelial differentiation. This was the only 1mm focus +ve for p40 and cytokeratins. Don’t believe it’s a sarcoma until you’ve done levels and every CK in your armoury #ENTPath

Pitfall alert ‼️ SOX10 positivity in basaloid-type SCC. Don’t confuse it for a salivary carcinoma in head & neck (this case was from oral tongue and p16-). Avoid using “basaloid” loosely its a specific subtype with dysplasia and characteristic cribriform collagen (PMID:3770734)

Nice one Tim, nice to see the CAM5.2 like that, helps demonstrate what’s happening 👍
Warthin’s tumour can undergo infarction and extensive squamous metaplasia mimicking SCC. Here CAM5.2 reveals the prior dual layer no longer visible on H&E. Ki67 and p53 IHC were also reassuring and the lesion was well circumscribed @pathkids @ENTpathology #Pathtwitter

3/3. Antrochoanal polyp of angiectatic type, a diagnosis requiring clinical insight. With polyp removed Joanna can now breathe easy, and relief from the end of this poem most cheesy. #Pathtwitter
