Primary post-radiation angiosarcoma of the small bowel. Report of a case and review of the literature.

Angiosarcomas developing in unusual sites such as the small bowel are rare, and fewer than 65 cases have been reported in the literature. They are not uncommonly associated with a known eliciting factor. Thus, among hitherto described cases of angiosarcoma of the small bowel, 16 were radiation-induced.

Unclassified sex cord/gonadal stromal testis tumor with a "pure" spindle cell component: a case report.

Unclassified sex cord/gonadal stromal tumors (SCSTs) composed predominantly of spindle cells are rare. Very few cases have been documented to date. Here, we report a case of "pure" spindle cell tumor of the left testis in a 83-year old man whose morphological and immunohistochemical findings were consistent with a diagnosis of unclassified SCST and review the literature.

Primary pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma of bone: case report and review of the literature.

Pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma (PMH) represents a multicentric recently characterized tumor type, generally presenting in young adults, of postulated vascular origin and intermediate malignancy. This entity tends to arise in the deep-seated dermal-subcutaneous locations, preferentially limited to one anatomic site, and may extend secondary to bone. PMH restricted to the skeletal system is rare.

Tall cell variant of papillary breast carcinoma: an additional case with review of the literature.

Papillary lesions of the breast can be one of the most challenging aspects of mammary pathology because of a wide morphologic spectrum that may be encountered in these lesions. An unusual breast tumor has been first classified as "breast tumor resembling the tall cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma" and subsequently renamed "tall cell variant of papillary breast carcinoma". To our knowledge, only 13 cases of this neoplasm have been reported so far.

Mucinous Variant of Follicular Carcinoma of the Thyroid Gland: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

The rare reports of mucinous variant of follicular carcinoma of the thyroid gland have not provided enough evidence to support the recognition of these tumors as a distinct clinicopathologic entity or to understand their etiopathogenesis. We report the fourth case of mucinous variant of follicular carcinoma displaying a minimally invasive tumor with diffuse expression of thyroglobulin, TTF-1, CD56, PAX-8, cytokeratins 7 and 19, in the absence of monoclonal carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin 20, chromogranin, HBME-1, P63 expression, and BRAF gene mutation, in a 51-year-old woman who is alive without signs of disease 13 months after total thyroidectomy, bilateral neck dissection, and radioactive iodine. Herein, fine-needle aspiration cytology disclosed "worrisome" cytologic features consisting of large epithelial cells arranged in clusters or singularly, with high nucleocytoplasmic ratio, nuclear grooves and evident nucleoli which were shared by those of mucin-producing papillary thyroid carcinoma.
