High-risk HPV genotype distribution in HPV co-test specimens: study of a predominantly Midwestern population.

Introduction: High-risk HPV (HR-HPV) genoprevalence was assessed in cytologic specimens co-tested for HR-HPV in a predominantly Midwestern U.S. population, of which there are limited current data.

Pitfalls of fine-needle aspiration cytology of parotid membranous basal cell adenoma-A review of pitfalls in FNA cytology of salivary gland neoplasms with basaloid cell features.

Membranous basal cell adenoma (MBCA) is a rare benign salivary gland neoplasm. It is difficult to diagnose MBCA based on fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology due to rare reporting of its FNA cytology and overlapping of its FNA cytologic features with some benign and malignant entities. We present a case of MBCA in a 67-year-old female that was originally misinterpreted as adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) on FNA cytology.

Fine-needle aspiration cytomorphology of sebaceous lymphadenoma of the salivary gland.

Sebaceous lymphadenoma (SLA) is a histologic variant of lymphadenoma or sebaceous adenoma of the salivary gland. The fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology of SLA has not been well-described. In this report, we reported a case that involved an 81-year-old male with a long-standing left parotid mass and was diagnosed on FNA cytology.

The efficacy of on-site evaluation for identification of transplant pancreas.

Objective: Pancreatic transplantation has been relatively uncommon until the last 2 decades, but is now an accepted therapeutic intervention for type I diabetes. Core biopsies of pancreas transplants are frequently performed to rule out rejection, which is a leading cause of graft failure. Often, it is difficult to localize the graft for biopsy by imaging.
