    Abstract This paper delves into the integral role of cytotechnologists (CTs) and biomedical scientists (BMSs) in interventional pathology, emphasizing their multifaceted responsibilities. From meticulous pre-procedural preparations to real-time decision-making and post-procedural care, CTs/BMSs significantly contribute to diagnostic efficiency. Their involvement is critical in optimizing patient outcomes.

    Abstract Introduction: Despite the established role of the interventional pathologist, their diagnostic performance is difficult to establish. At least in Spain training of pathology residents in ultrasound-guided interventional procedures for specimen collection is limited or absent in most institutions. We present our teaching experience in the instruction of ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) to pathology residents in a tertiary-level hospital.
    Materials and methods: The training of pathology residents who rotated through the interventional unit of the pathology department and the application of ultrasound-guided FNA and rapid on-site evaluation (U-ROSE) was documented over 5 years. The training period was broken down into learning phases and included the number of ultrasound-guided FNA performed, anatomical location, and their diagnostic performance, among other aspects.
    Results: Nineteen (19) pathology residents were trained in U-ROSE, and performed a total of 4003 procedures, with a mean of 211 per resident. In 53% of cases only one pass was required for an adequated sample. The specimen was diagnostic in more than 97% of cases. The most frequently sampled anatomical sites were the thyroid gland (n = 2347), followed by lymph node (n = 667), soft tissues (n = 663) and salivary glands (n = 322).
    Conclusion: The results support the training programme followed by pathology residents in learning U-ROSE, which is essential to lay the foundations for the future interventional pathologist.

    Title translation Lung clear cell tumor «sugar tumor». Unusual diagnostic neoplasm.
    Abstract Clear Cell «sugar tumor» of the lung is a rare nosological entity of which around 60 cases have been published in the scientific literature. Considered to be of mesenchymal origin, it presents a typical histochemical - immunohistochemical profile, positive PAS and melanic markers, which allows it to be differentiated from other more frequent neoplasms with worse prognosis. We present the case of a 56-year-old man with a clear cell lung tumor. Radiological, macro-microscopic and histochemistry - immunohistochemical characterization, as well as a brief review of the literature.

    Abstract Amyloid goiter (AG) (primary or secondary) is extremely rare. An abdominal fat pad core needle biopsy (CNB) is the diagnostic gold standard for secondary amyloidosis. Although CNB is useful to detect amyloid infiltration of a specific organ, fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is proven to be the best diagnostic method for thyroid disorders. Guidelines recommend an ultrasound-guided FNA (US-FNA) whenever possible. This procedure is usually performed by various interventional specialists, including pathologists, who perform the procedure in addition to validating the adequacy of the sample. We report a rare case of AG diagnosed using US-FNA performed by a pathologist in a 39-year-old patient with systemic amyloidosis. US-FNA performed by pathologists is a proven, less-invasive, and cost-effective tool that ensures acquisition of adequate specimens and reduces nondiagnostic rates of this procedure to ensure timely cytological diagnosis.

    Abstract CD20-negative diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a very uncommon neoplasm, and very rare unclassifiable cases that did not meet the criteria for well-established subtypes of CD20-negative DLBCLs have been reported. CD20-negative DLBCLs often present an aggressive clinical course with important chemoresistance and poor prognosis. Here, we report a case of CD20-negative DLBCL presented as a testicular mass. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first reported cases of testicular unclassifiable CD20-negative DLBCL.

    Title translation Minimally invasive percutaneous musculoskeletal biopsy performed by Interventional Pathologist for myopathy study. Twenty years of experience.
    Abstract Introduction: Muscle biopsy plays a major role in the final diagnosis of myopathies. Open muscle biopsy is the benchmark procedure, although minimally invasive percutaneous muscle biopsy (MIPMB) has demonstrated comparable diagnostic performance at a lower cost and can be carried out by interventional pathologists.
    Materials and methods: Muscle biopsies performed from 1997 to 2017 were reviewed and classified according to the type of procedure, whether carried out by an interventional pathologist or another specialist, the diagnosis and the effectiveness of the procedure.
    Results: 738 muscle biopsies were performed; 32% were open biopsies and 68% MIPMB carried out by pathologist. The muscle most often biopsied was the femoral quadriceps and the most frequent diagnosis was inflammatory myopathies. In only 39 cases (20 open biopsies and 19 MIPMB) was there insufficient tissue for diagnosis.
    Conclusions: Muscle biopsy proved highly effective as a diagnostic tool as 90% yielded adequate tissue samples. The results obtained with MIPMB performed by interventionist pathologists were comparable to those of open muscle biopsy.
