    Abstract Objective: The objective of our study was to characterize infarct-associated bone sarcoma and its imaging features.
    Materials and methods: Our databases were searched for instances of sarcoma arising in association with osteonecrosis. Demographic and imaging data were recorded. The imaging studies of 258 patients with sarcomas were reviewed to determine whether underlying osteonecrosis was present. Radiographic and MRI studies of patients with bone infarction were reviewed to categorize the various appearances of infarction and to determine if sarcomas tended to arise in a particular pattern. A literature review was performed.
    Results: Nine infarct-associated bone sarcomas were found in eight patients: seven malignant fibrous histiocytomas (MFHs) and two osteosarcomas. All occurred in the femur or tibia; multifocal infarction was documented in all patients except one. Sarcomas were commonly associated with a so-called "mature"-type pattern of osteonecrosis-that is, with well-defined calcified margins. Osteolysis of infarct-associated MFHs was often overlooked at initial presentation and was often detected only after pathologic fracture. CT and MRI revealed cortical penetration in all cases; infarct margin disruption was evident, but preservation of fat within the infarct was typical. Increased radiotracer activity with relative central photopenia was characteristic of large infarct-associated bone sarcomas on scintigraphy. All lesions, including those treated at our institution and those found in the literature, were metaphyseal or diaphyseal, and although epiphyseal extension of sarcoma from a metadiaphyseal infarct was common, no purely epiphyseal lesions were encountered.
    Conclusion: Radiologists must remain vigilant for this rare occurrence, especially in patients with new pain in an area of known bone infarction.

    Abstract Reactive lesions of bone and soft tissue can appear alarming on histologic examination because they are often cellular and have atypical (activated) cytologic features, such as distinct nucleoli and mild hyperchromasia, and mitotic activity. Reactive lesions of bone and periosteum also produce bone and cartilage matrix, resulting in confusion with osteosarcoma or chondrosarcoma. Careful attention to key cytomorphological features such as the pattern of bone formation, uniform appearance of cells, and absence of atypical mitoses should help identify the reactive nature of a lesion. Correlation with clinical and radiological findings is also imperative to avoid misclassification of the tumor because reactive lesions often arise at sites where osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma are rare (e.g., the hand) and lack aggressive radiological features. In this review we discuss reactive lesions of bone that are commonly confused with malignant neoplasms and that the practicing pathologist is likely to encounter at some point. Several of these lesions have had characteristic chromosomal translocations documented in recent years, but continue to be included as reactive lesions based on their overall clinicopathological features.

    Abstract Epithelioid trophoblastic tumor is a malignancy derived from the chorionic laeve-type intermediate trophoblast with sufficient rarity that the vast majority of literature on the topic exists in the form of case reports and small series. Classically, it is regarded as a well-circumscribed tumor with an expansile growth pattern that occurs in reproductive-aged women, usually after a normal pregnancy. However, we recently encountered a case of epithelioid trophoblastic tumor with aggressive spread throughout the abdomen and pelvis in a 68-yr-old female presenting 30 yr after her last delivery. Although to our knowledge this is the first report in a postmenopausal patient to be confirmed by molecular analysis of short tandem repeats, there are multiple similar case reports spanning a variety of clinical settings that deviate from the original description. We therefore sought to synthesize the clinicopathologic data among the available reports in the English literature, with emphasis on pathologic findings. While the overarching themes are largely unchanged, this series of 77 patients reveals a broader spectrum of disease and highlights frequent misdiagnosis. Here we present a clinicopathologic update on this rare entity, with emphasis on a practical approach to diagnosis.

    Abstract The transcription factor SOX2 has been identified as an oncogene involved in the pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of multiple sites, including the uterine cervix. The relationship between SOX2 overexpression and the continuum of precancerous lesions of the cervix has not been previously elucidated. We evaluated SOX2 immunohistochemical expression in normal cervix, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) (mild squamous dysplasia), high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) (moderate and severe dysplasia) and SCC of the cervix in comparison with p16 and Ki-67. Staining patterns were scored as negative, basal one third of the epithelium, lower two third, or full thickness. The results showed that SOX2 expression was limited to the basal one third in 84% of LSIL cases, whereas 95% of HSIL showed SOX2 expression up to two third or full thickness (P<0.0001). p16 and Ki-67 displayed similar results. The difference in SOX2 expression between moderate and severe dysplasia was not statistically significant (P=0.53). Invasive SCC positivity was as follows: SOX2 94%; p16 89%; and Ki-67 100%. Our findings support a role for SOX2 in the progression of squamous dysplasia to SCC. The Lower Anogenital Standardization Terminology Project's recent assertion of a lack of a biological correlate to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia II is also upheld by SOX2. For equivocal situations in which a diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia II would have been made, Lower Anogenital Standardization Terminology recommends p16, or other biomarkers such as Ki-67 to clarify the diagnosis. SOX2, with a clean nuclear staining pattern, may also be suitable for this role.

    Abstract We performed a pilot study in anticipation of using long-aged precut formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections stored in real-world conditions for translational biomarker studies of topoisomerase 2A (TOP2A), Ki67, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in endometrial cancer. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue blocks or unstained slides or both from GOG-0177 were collected centrally (1999-2000) and stored at room temperature. During 2004 to 2011 specimens were stored at 4°C. Matched pairs of stored slides and freshly cut slides from stored blocks were analyzed for TOP2A (KiS1), Ki67 (MIB1), and HER2 (HercepTest) proteins. To assess DNA stability (HER2 PathVision), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was repeated on stored slides from 21 cases previously shown to be HER2 amplified. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining intensity and extent, mean FISH copies/cell, and copy number ratios were compared using the κ statistic for concordance or signed rank test for differences in old cut versus new cut slides. IHC results reflected some protein degradation in stored slides. The proportion of cells with TOP2A staining was lower on average by 12% in older sections (P=0.03). The proportion of Ki67-positive cells was lower in stored slides by an average of 10% (P<0.01). Too few cases in the IHC cohort were FISH positive for any conclusions. HER2 amplification by FISH was unaffected by slide storage. We conclude that use of aged stored slides for proliferation markers TOP2A and Ki67 is feasible but may modestly underestimate true values in endometrial cancer. Pilot studies for particular storage conditions/durations/antigens to be used in translational studies are warranted.

    Abstract Context: Epithelioid and epithelial neoplasms seen in bone are rare and include epithelioid variants of vascular lesions, osteoblastoma, osteosarcoma, chordoma, and chondroblastoma as well as adamantinoma and metastatic carcinoma.
    Objective: To provide an overview of tumors with epithelioid histology and address the clinical context and diagnostic issues.
    Data sources: Pertinent literature is reviewed with emphasis on recent and controversial issues.
    Conclusions: The differential diagnosis in epithelioid/epithelial lesions of bone is limited. The primary consideration in many cases is distinguishing primary from metastatic lesions.
