[Inflammatory malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the spermatic cord infiltrating an inguinal leiomyoma. Case report with conceptual and bibliographic reviews].

Objectives: To study paratesticular malignant fibrous histiocytomas (FHM) from the clinical, histological, immunohistochemical and histogenetic, point of view.

Methods: Through Medline and not index-linked search of international scientific literature we have found a total of 77 cases of paratesticular FHM that globally create diagnostic, terminological and therapeutic problems.

Results: We include the case number 78 of FHM of spermatic cord, that presents a few special characteristics (not described before) of cutaneous fistula and infiltration of an inguinal leiomyoma, with histological and immunohistochemical confirmation.

Fine needle aspiration cytology of clear cell carcinoma of the gallbladder with hepatic infiltration: a case report.

Background: Clear cell carcinoma of the gallbladder (CCG) is an unusual histologic variant recognized in the World Health Organ ization classification of tumors of the gallbladder and extrahepatic bile ducts. Although the clinicopathologic features have been documented in a few reports, to our knowledge the cytologic findings have not been described before. We report the fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) findings in a case of CCG with hepatic infiltration.

Marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of the parotid gland associated with epithelioid granulomas. Report of a case with fine needle aspiration.

Background: Although granulomas can occur in association with malignant neoplasms, including some subtypes of lymphoma, they have been described rarely in marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZCL). To our knowledge, the cytologic features of this association have not been documented. We present the cytologic findings with fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of an unusual case of MZCL with concomitant granulomas.

Lymphoepithelioid cell lymphoma (Lennert's lymphoma). Report of a case with fine needle aspiration cytology.

Background: Lymphoepithelioid cell lymphoma (LCL) is a rare morphologic variant of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Although their histopathologic and immunohistochemical findings are well known, the cytopathologic features have not been well documented. This report describes the fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) findings of a case of LCL.
