    Abstract We report a mediastinal neuroblastoma in an octogenarian with paraneoplastic syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). Neuroblastomas are very rare tumors in adults, with thoracic or mediastinal locations being especially uncommon. These neoplasms have been occasionally associated with the SIADH. Given the rarity of incidence and paucity of diagnostic and outcomes data, the significance of standard neuroblastoma prognostic characteristics is unclear, and no treatment paradigms exist for these patients. Further studies are needed to inform future clinical guidelines.

    Abstract Human cells tightly control their dimensions, but in some cancers, normal cell size control is lost. In this study we measure cell volumes of epithelial cells from human lung adenocarcinoma progression in situ. By leveraging artificial intelligence (AI), we reconstruct tumor cell shapes in three dimensions (3D) and find airway type 2 cells display up to 10-fold increases in volume. Surprisingly, cell size increase is not caused by altered ploidy, and up to 80% of near-euploid tumor cells show abnormal sizes. Size dysregulation is not explained by cell swelling or senescence because cells maintain cytoplasmic density and proper organelle size scaling, but is correlated with changes in tissue organization and loss of a novel network of processes that appear to connect alveolar type 2 cells. To validate size dysregulation in near-euploid cells, we sorted cells from tumor single-cell suspensions on the basis of size. Our study provides data of unprecedented detail for cell volume dysregulation in a human cancer. Broadly, loss of size control may be a common feature of lung adenocarcinomas in humans and mice that is relevant to disease and identification of these cells provides a useful model for investigating cell size control and consequences of cell size dysregulation.

    Abstract This case report describes a lung transplantation recipient who developed severe acute cellular rejection with high-grade lymphocytic bronchiolitis after transition to a calcineurin-free regimen using belatacept. A 53-year-old man who had undergone lung transplantation 3 years prior developed progressive chronic kidney disease related to tacrolimus. He was transitioned off tacrolimus to belatacept to prevent the need for dialysis. He was admitted 2 months later with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. Video-assisted thoracic surgery biopsy showed acute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia and A4B2 rejection. He subsequently developed chronic lung allograft dysfunction. This case illustrates the potential increased risk of acute rejection associated with belatacept maintenance immunosuppression.

    Abstract Pulmonary adenomyomas are rare adenomyomatous hamartomas. In the few cases described in the literature, these benign tumors are encapsulated by lung parenchyma. We describe a case of a 59 year-old woman with acetylcholine receptor antibody-negative myasthenia gravis and a right cardiophrenic mass initially thought to be a thymoma. Histopathology surprisingly revealed a pulmonary adenomyoma which involved the mediastinal fat at the cardiophrenic angle.

    Abstract Background: Lung cancers can recur locally due to inadequate resection margins. Achieving adequate margin distances is challenging in pulmonary ground glass opacities (GGOs) because they are not easily palpable. To improve margin assessment during resection of GGOs, we propose a novel technique, three-dimensional near-infrared specimen mapping (3D-NSM).
    Methods: Twenty patients with a cT1 GGO were enrolled and received a fluorescent tracer preoperatively. After resection, specimens underwent 3D-NSM in the operating room. Margins were graded as positive or negative based upon fluorescence at the staple line. Images were analyzed using ImageJ to quantify the distance from the tumor edge to the nearest staple line. This margin distance calculated by 3D-NSM was compared to the margin distance reported on final pathology several days postoperatively.
    Results: 3D-NSM identified 20/20 GGOs with no false positive or false negative diagnoses. Mean fluorescence intensity for lesions was 110.92 arbitrary units (A.U.) (IQR: 77.77-122.03 A.U.) compared to 23.68 A.U. (IQR: 19.60-27.06 A.U.) for background lung parenchyma (p < 0.0001). There were 4 tumor-positive or close margins in the study cohort, and all 4 (100%) were identified by 3D-NSM. 3D-NSM margin distances were nearly identical to margin distances reported on final pathology (R
    Conclusions: 3D-NSM rapidly localizes GGOs by fluorescence and detects tumor-positive or close surgical margins. 3D-NSM can accurately quantify the resection margin distance as compared to formal pathology, which allows surgeons to rapidly determine whether sublobar resection margin distances are adequate.

    Abstract Background: Intraoperative frozen section (FS) consultation is an important tool in surgical oncology that suffers from sampling error because the pathologist does not always know where to perform a biopsy of the surgical specimen. Intraoperative molecular imaging is a technology used in the OR to visualize lesions during surgery. We hypothesized that molecular imaging can address this pathology challenge in FS by visualizing the cancer cells in the specimen in the pathology suite. Here, we report the development and validation of a molecular-imaging capable cryostat called Smart-Cut.
    Methods: A molecular imaging capable cryostat prototype was developed and tested using a murine model. Tumors grown in mice were targeted with a NIR contrast agent, indocyanine green (ICG), via tail vein injection. Tumors and adjacent normal tissue samples were frozen sectioned with Smart-Cut. Fluorescent sections and non-fluorescent sections were prepared for H&E and fluorescent microscopy. Fluorescent signal was quantified by tumor-to-background ratio (TBR). NIR fluorescence was tested in one patient enrolled in a clinical trial.
    Results: The Smart-Cut prototype has a small footprint and fits well in the pathology suite. Fluorescence imaging with Smart-Cut identified cancerous tissue in the specimen in all 12 mice. No false positives or false negatives were seen, as confirmed by H&E. The mean TBR in Smart-Cut positive tissue sections was 6.8 (SD±3.8). In a clinical application in the pathology suite, NIR imaging identified two lesions in a pulmonary resection specimen, where traditional grossing only identified one.
    Conclusion: Molecular imaging can be integrated into the pathology suite via the Smart-Cut device, and can detect cancer in frozen tissue sections using molecular imaging in a murine model.
