• Nonmesothelial Spindle Cell Tumors of Pleura and Pericardium. H. Li, A.N. Husain, D. Moffat, et al. 2024;17(2):257-270. Review PubMed · Publisher

  Abstract

  Spindle cell lesions of the pleura and pericardium are rare. Distinction from sarcomatoid mesothelioma, which has a range of morphologic patterns, can be difficult, but accurate diagnosis matters. This article provides practical guidance for the diagnosis of pleural spindle cell neoplasms, focusing on primary lesions.

• Diagnosis of Mesothelioma. D.R. Fels Elliott, K.D. Jones. 2020;13(1):73-89. Review PubMed · Publisher

  Abstract

  Mesothelioma is a rare neoplasm that arises from mesothelial cells lining body cavities including the pleura, pericardium, peritoneum, and tunica vaginalis. Most malignant mesotheliomas occur in the chest and are frequently associated with a history of asbestos exposure. The diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma is challenging and fraught with pitfalls, particularly in small biopsies. This article highlights what the pathologist needs to know regarding the clinical and radiographic presentation of mesothelioma, histologic features including subtypes and variants, and recent advances in immunohistochemical markers and molecular testing.

• Fallopian Tube Neoplasia and Mimics. D.L. Kolin, M.R. Nucci. 2019;12(2):457-479. Review PubMed · Publisher

  Abstract

  This review discusses select fallopian tube entities and their associated mimics. It first focuses on adenomatoid tumors, the most common benign tumor of the fallopian tube. High-grade serous carcinoma and its precursor, serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma, are then addressed. Finally, attention is turned to endometrioid proliferations of the fallopian tube. A diagnostic approach is provided for these lesions, with an emphasis on differential diagnoses and situations in which a benign lesion may appear malignant, and vice-versa.

• Updates in Effusion Cytology. C.M. Lepus, M. Vivero. 2018;11(3):523-544. Review PubMed · Publisher

  Abstract

  Effusion cytology plays multiple roles in the management of benign and malignant disease, from primary diagnosis to tissue allocation for ancillary diagnostic studies and biomarker testing of therapeutic targets. This article summarizes recent advances in pleural effusion cytology, with a focus on the practical application of immunohistochemical markers, cytogenetic techniques, flow cytometry, and molecular techniques for the diagnosis and management of primary and secondary neoplasms of the pleura.

• Non-mesenchymal Mimics of Sarcoma. L.A. Doyle. 2015;8(3):493-513. Review PubMed · Publisher

  Abstract

  A variety of different non-mesenchymal neoplasms may mimic sarcoma, in particular sarcomatoid carcinoma and melanoma, but also mesothelioma and rarely some lymphomas. This article reviews the key clinical and histologic features of such neoplasms in different settings, along with the use of ancillary studies to help identify the tumor types most frequently misdiagnosed as sarcoma.

• Asbestos-Related Lung Disease. R.L. Attanoos. 2010;3(1):109-27. Review PubMed · Publisher

  Abstract

  Asbestos is a high-profile health hazard. This article examines the assessment asbestos-related malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer. The risk of developing these diseases increases in proportion to the cumulative dose. As persons with heavy occupational asbestos exposures are diminishing, the observed latent period for asbestos-related disease extends making the assessment of an individual's cumulative dose is now more problematic.
