Myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) is a malignant fibroblastic/myofibroblastic neoplasm with the prominent myxoid area. It has the clinical features of frequent local recurrence and occasional distant metastasis. Morphologically, MFS is occasionally difficult to distinguish from undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), especially in the case of high-grade MFS. Here, we reviewed clinical and histologic data of 162 MFS cases and 43 UPS cases. MFS was distinguished from UPS with the criterion of 10% myxoid area...

The chemotherapy response score (CRS) is used to score histopathologic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) of patients with extrauterine high-grade serous carcinoma. This study was undertaken to determine if the CRS in the omentum, adnexa or when combined correlates with (1) progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS), (2) laparoscopic score of abdominal disease, (3) Cancer antigen 125 levels, (4) BRCA status, and (5) platinum-resistant disease. A total of 158 cases were retrospectively...

Denosumab, an antibody directed against receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL), has recently been introduced in the treatment strategy of giant cell tumor of bone. In this study, we assessed the tumor changes induced by denosumab in a national multicentric series of 35 cases (French Bone Pathology Group network—ResOs). Tissue specimens collected before and after denosumab treatment were investigated for RANKL, H3.3 G34W, p63, and Ki-67 expression, and for H3F3A mutation. These parameters...

Lymphocytic esophagitis is a well-known manifestation of Crohn disease among children but is not considered to be an immune-mediated mucositis in adults. We hypothesize that adult-onset lymphocyte-predominant esophagitis is also an immune-mediated inflammatory pattern, the nature of which has been masked by other conditions that feature esophageal lymphocytosis and occur in older patients. We performed this study to consolidate diagnostic criteria for lymphocyte-predominant esophagitis and determine...

A malignant gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumor (GNET) is rare, and it is therefore yet to be completely understood. This study aimed to present the clinicopathologic features of GNET, including treatment information. We included 19 patients with GNET with a mean tumor size of 4.2 cm. The most common site of tumor origin was the small intestine (57.9%), followed by the stomach (15.8%), colon (10.5%), ileocecal junction (5.3%), lower esophagus (5.3%), and anal canal (5.3%). Microscopically, the...

The eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system has introduced major changes for the staging of skeletal sarcomas. However, it is unclear if these changes improve the predictive value for chondrosarcomas of the nonpelvic appendicular and nonspinal axial skeleton. Specifically, there is no clear evidence that supports the use of the proposed binary size cutoff of 8 cm for risk stratification, nor is a rationale provided for the categorization of grade 2 chondrosarcomas...
