✨The good, the bad and the humdrum.
🟢Corpora amylacea in a prostate gland = benign
🔴Necrosis in a prostate gland = be on the lookout for cancer
⚪Basal cell hyperplasia = negligible finding

What a week! Two presentations, countless inspiring conversations!
Grateful for the opportunity to share our research at #CAP26 in Las Vegas and MetroHealth Research Day, and to connect with and learn from the leaders in pathology!

What’s that inside the gastric crypts of an immunocompromised person?
🪱Strongyloides stercoralis!
✨Adult worms, eggs, and rhabditiform larvae reside in gastric pits or interepithelial tunnels.

While typically affecting the duodenum, gastric involvement presents with non-specific endoscopy findings like edema and erythema, making biopsies critical for identifying larvae.

A needle biopsy of this pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasm was labeled "gastric mass". We initially tried to make it into a neuroendocrine tumor.... Sometimes needle placement is misleading.. LEF1 is a nice clean nuclear stain and easier to interpret than beta catenin.

Bx for pt with AKI and nephrotic range proteinuria. Hx of IV drug abuse (with skin popping), and chronic staph infections. AA amyloidosis was the unsurprising finding. #renalpath #pathtwitter #nephrology

Renal Medullary Carcinoma (RMC): highly aggressive tumor in patients with sickle cell trait.
🔬 Infiltrative growth with tubuloreticular and gland-like structures. Pleomorphic nuclei w/ prominent nucleoli. Brisk inflam infiltrate. Associated w/ necrosis and loss of SMARCB1/INI1

✅ EWSR1::ATF1 fusion 🎯🦶
• Pathognomonic for clear cell sarcoma of soft tissue
• t(12;22)(q13;q12) translocation targeting ATF1
• Nested epithelioid cells with prominent macronucleoli
• Melanocytic differentiation with strong S100 and SOX10 positivity
• Typically arises in deep soft tissues associated with tendons
ALT Tumor cells have pale eosinophilic cytoplasm with prominent nucleoli @IARCWHO
ALT Tumor cells show strong and diffuse expression of S100 @IARCWHO
ALT Wreath-like multinucleated giant cells are a common finding @IARCWHO

Honored to receive the 1st place award at MetroHealth’s 2026 Patient Safety Awareness Week Poster Contest.
Our project improved transfusion safety through implementation of electronic matching of patient and specimens (PPID/PSID) sent to the laboratory for type and screen.

Undifferentiated urothelial carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells. Pleomorphic malignant cells with scattered multinucleated giant cells resembling osteoclasts in a highly atypical tumor background.
A rare aggressive subtype of UCa with distinctive histology. #GUpath

Melanosis of the bladder, a rare benign finding characterized by melanin deposition within the urothelium and macrophages in the lamina propria.
H&E and Fontana–Masson highlight the pigment beautifully. Always important to distinguish from melanoma or hemosiderin. #GUPath

A lovely example of colonic granular cell tumor. These are more common in the right colon than elsewhere in the colon.
