SMARCB1-Deficient Sinonasal Carcinoma: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

BACKGROUND SMARCB1-deficient sinonasal carcinoma is a rare neoplasm with inactivation of the SWI/SNF complex, with an aggressive clinical course as most of the lesions present as advanced in pT3/T4 stages with frequent recurrence, and many patients succumb to the disease. Reported initially in 2014, the lesion has male predominance, with an age range of 19 to 89 years and predilection for the ethmoid sinus and nasal cavity. Histopathological findings show a proliferation of small- to medium-sized monomorphic basaloid cells with indistinctive cytoplasmic borders and round variably prominent nuclei with scattered cells that show rhabdoid morphology.

Revised Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytology: Lessons learned from an appraisal of 5 years of experience in a central hospital.

Objective: The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytology (BSFRTC) is widely adopted in the management of thyroid nodules. The system was updated in 2017, and its impact is the subject of this paper.

Methods: All thyroid fine needle aspirations from 2016-2020 using the BSFRTC, with follow-up surgical pathology, were reviewed.
