Frequency and clinicopathologic features of renal low-grade oncocytic tumour and eosinophilic vacuolated tumour: reclassification of 605 eosinophilic tumours including patients managed with active surveillance.

Aims: Low-grade oncocytic tumour (LOT) and eosinophilic vacuolated tumour (EVT) are recently described emerging entities, which demonstrate distinct features but are not yet recognised as separate neoplasms in the fifth WHO classification. Published series to date have been largely multi-institutional and based on surgically resected tumours. This study aims to determine the frequency, clinicopathologic features and outcome of LOT and EVT in a single institutional series of oncocytic/eosinophilic renal neoplasms, including patients managed with active surveillance and non-surgical intervention.

Somatic Tumor Testing in Prostate Cancer: Experience of a Tertiary Care Center Including Pathologist-Driven Reflex Testing of Localized Tumors at Diagnosis.

Somatic tumor testing in prostate cancer (PCa) can guide treatment options by identifying clinically actionable variants in DNA damage repair genes, including acquired variants not detected using germline testing alone. Guidelines currently recommend performing somatic tumor testing in metastatic PCa, whereas there is no consensus on the role of testing in regional disease, and the optimal testing strategy is only evolving. This study evaluates the frequency, distribution, and pathologic correlates of somatic DNA damage repair mutations in metastatic and localized PCa following the implementation of pathologist-driven reflex testing at diagnosis.

Establishing an effective clinical data collecting tool for optimal evaluation of native and allograft renal biopsies.

Introduction: Percutaneous kidney biopsy is the gold standard method to reach a precise diagnosis in most medical kidney diseases, which positively impacts patient care by personalizing the treatment. Accurate diagnosis in the pathology report for medical kidney diseases requires clinicopathological correlation, and clinical data is not always reachable to the nephropathologist. This study aimed to create a standardized, paperless requisition form compatible with medical renal biopsies.

Morphologic Pattern, Frequency, and Spatial Distribution of Lymphovascular Invasion Foci in Radical Prostatectomy Specimens.

Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is an adverse pathological finding in radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens associated with increased risk of metastatic disease. Its variable incidence may be attributed to underreporting. We characterized the location, quantity, and morphology of LVI foci in RP specimens and assessed the relationship between LVI and cribriform and intraductal carcinoma and metastatic risk.

Penile extramammary Paget disease associated with urothelial carcinoma in situ: Case report and literature review.

Background: Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is an uncommon disease affecting older men and women. Clinically, it appears as a plaque lesion with an erythematous or leukoplakic background in regions with abundant apocrine glands such as female external genitalia, perineum, scrotum, and penis.

Methods: We are presenting an 85-year-old patient with recurrent erythematous plaque lesions involving the penis and known to have urothelial carcinoma (UC) in situ of the bladder.
