'Insufficient'/'Inadequate'/'Non-Diagnostic' Category of the WHO Reporting System for Lung Cytopathology, 2022: A Survey About Use in Practice.

Introduction: The new 'WHO Reporting System for Lung Cytopathology' (2022) includes an 'Insufficient'/'Inadequate'/'Non-diagnostic' category. Although they recommend that each laboratory should choose one term to report this diagnostic category, they do not recommend one term over the others. Our aim was to evaluate the use of these three terms in pulmonary FNACs among Spanish pathologists.

The Validation of the Greulich and Pyle Atlas for Radiological Bone Age Assessments in a Pediatric Population from the Canary Islands.

Bone age assessments measure the growth and development of children and adolescents by evaluating their skeletal maturity, which is influenced by various factors like heredity, ethnicity, culture, and nutrition. The clinical standards for this assessment should be up to date and appropriate for the specific population being studied. This study validates the GP-Canary Atlas for accurately predicting bone age by analyzing posteroanterior left hand and wrist radiographs of healthy children (80 females and 134 males) from the Canary Islands across various developmental stages and genders.

Incidental finding in urine cytology in a patient with chronic renal disease.

An incidental finding in urine smears from a patient with a presumptive diagnosis of an IgA mesangial nephropathy is presented. A possible example of the potential value of urine cytology in functional renal disorders. We report a case of an incidental finding in urine cytology from a patient with a presumptive diagnosis of an IgA mesangial glomerulonephritis, previously diagnosed as atypical urothelial cells.

Striated duct adenoma: The cytological description of a rare entity.

Introduction: Striated duct adenoma is a benign salivary gland tumour recently recognized by the World Health Organization. To date, no report has described the cytological features of this entity.

Precision and Accuracy of Radiological Bone Age Assessment in Children among Different Ethnic Groups: A Systematic Review.

Aim: The aim was to identify, evaluate, and summarize the findings of relevant individual studies on the precision and accuracy of radiological BA assessment procedures among children from different ethnic groups.

Materials And Methods: A qualitative systematic review was carried out following the MOOSE statement and previously registered in (CRD42023449512). A search was performed in MEDLINE () ( = 561), the Cochrane Library ( = 261), CINAHL ( = 103), Web of Science () ( = 181), and institutional repositories ( = 37) using MeSH and free terms combined with the Booleans "" and "".

Anal cytology: Diagnosis of intestinal spirochaetosis.

Objective: A case of intestinal spirochaetosis diagnosed in anal cytology is presented.

Methods: An anal liquid-based cytology was performed and stained with Papanicolau and Warthin-Starry stains.

Results: An apical filamentous "fringe" was identified in columnar cells groups.
