    Abstract Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is the main cause of infectious mononucleosis (IM), a self-limiting infection among immunocompetent patients. EBV is also implicated in the development of several malignancies. We describe a case of a previously healthy 34-year-old man who presented with non-tender, enlarging, right cervical lymphadenopathy for over a year that was associated with significant weight loss, fevers, and night sweats. Two fine needle core biopsies showed inconclusive then reactive tissue, respectively. A third excisional biopsy demonstrated a reactive lymph node with EBV-positive IM. There was no evidence of lymphoma by histologic examination or flow cytometry. A diagnosis of chronic active EBV (CAEBV) was rendered. Subsequent lymph node debulking six months later showed classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL) positive for EBV. The patient underwent chemotherapy with full treatment response. This is an unusual presentation of EBV infection that led to either a delayed onset or delayed diagnosis of CHL.

    Abstract Context.—: The diagnosis of some infectious diseases requires their identification in tissue specimens. As institutions adopt digital pathology for primary diagnosis, the limits of microorganism detection from digital images must be delineated.
    Objective.—: To assess the reliability of microorganism detection from digitized images of histochemical and immunohistochemical stains commonly used in pathology.
    Design.—: Original glass slides from 620 surgical pathology cases evaluated for the presence of infectious microorganisms were digitized. Immunohistochemical stains included those for herpes simplex virus (n = 100), cytomegalovirus (n = 100), Helicobacter pylori (n = 100), and spirochetes (n = 80). Histochemical stains included mucicarmine for Cryptococcus spp (n = 20), Grocott methenamine silver for fungi (n = 100), Giemsa for H pylori (n = 100), and Ziehl-Neelsen for acid-fast bacilli (n = 20). The original diagnosis based on the glass slides was regarded as the reference standard. Six pathologists reviewed the digital images.
    Results.—: Digital review was generally associated with high (ie, ≥90%) specificity and positive predictive value owing to a low percentage of false positive reads, whereas a high percentage of false negatives contributed to low sensitivity and negative predictive value for many stains. Fleiss κ showed substantial interobserver agreement in the interpretation of Grocott methenamine silver and immunostains for herpes simplex virus, H pylori, and cytomegalovirus; moderate agreement for spirochete, Ziehl-Neelsen, and mucicarmine; and poor agreement for Giemsa.
    Conclusions.—: Digital immunohistochemistry generally outperforms histochemical stains for microorganism detection. Digital interpretation of Ziehl-Neelsen and mucicarmine stains is associated with low scores for interrater reliability, accuracy, sensitivity, and negative predictive value such that it should not substitute for conventional review of glass slides.

    Abstract Objective: To describe a case of Burkitt lymphoma (BL) in a child manifesting with acute airway obstruction. To review available literature on the clinical features and characteristic presentation of this disease.
    Methods: Case report with literature review.
    Results: We present the case of an 8-year-old boy with nasopharyngeal BL manifesting initially as sore throat, nasal congestion, and snoring that progressed to dyspnea and, ultimately, acute airway obstruction requiring emergent tracheostomy. The child was treated with intensive chemotherapy and achieved complete response.
    Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of maintaining high clinical suspicion when evaluating common otolaryngologic symptoms and emphasizes the potential for Burkitt lymphoma to cause rapid patient deterioration.

    Abstract Cranial fasciitis (CF) is an uncommon benign myofibroblastic proliferation involving the soft and hard tissues of the cranium. It typically occurs in the pediatric population with a male predilection (male-to-female ratio 1.5:1). The clinical presentation is usually a rapidly expanding, painless nodule. Bone erosion may be appreciated radiographically. Histopathologic sections of CF show plump, fibroblast-like cells with pale, oval shaped nuclei and prominent nucleoli in a fibrous or myxoid background. Growth is self-limited and surgical excision is considered curative. Due to these features, CF is thought to be a variant of nodular fasciitis (NF). As with NF, CF may mimic a sarcomatous process and pose a diagnostic challenge to clinicians and pathologists alike. Erickson-Johnson et al. identified rearrangements of the ubiquitin-specific protease 6 (USP6) gene in 44 of 48 cases of NF. MYH9 was the fusion partner in 12 of these cases. To date, the molecular profile of CF has not been studied. Here we present the molecular findings in three cases of CF identified at our institution. Each case was subjected to fluorescence in-situ hybridization with appropriate negative controls. Two of three cases were positive for the USP6 gene rearrangement. The third case failed to hybridize, likely related to nucleic acid damage secondary to decalcification. Negative controls did not demonstrate the genetic rearrangement. These findings warrant further investigation of the USP6 gene rearrangement in CF, as it may prove helpful as a diagnostic adjunct in challenging cases.
