Urinary tract involvement of mantle cell lymphoma diagnosed by urine cytology.

Urinary tract lymphoma is unusual, with the kidney being the most commonly reported site of involvement. Urinary bladder involvement by lymphoma is rare. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a relatively uncommon type of lymphoma.

Pneumocystis jirovecii immunostain versus Gomori/Grocott methenamine silver stain of bronchoalveolar lavage in cell blocks: an institutional experience.

Introduction: Current approaches to Pneumocystis jirovecii (PCJ) screening on bronchioalveolar lavage samples (BAL) include Gomori/Grocott methenamine silver stain (GMS), toluidine blue O stain, Wright-Giemsa stain, immunofluorescent antibody stain, and polymerase chain reaction. Another method available is PCJ immunohistochemistry stain (PCJ IHC). There are no published series evaluating the efficacy of PCJ IHC in cell block preparation of BAL, we sought to compare GMS versus PCJ IHC at our institution.
