Am J Clin Pathol
December 2010
Division of Hematopathology, Weill Cornell Medical Center-New York Presbyterian Hospital, New York, NY,USA.
Article Synopsis
- Follicular lymphoma (FL) can transform into more aggressive forms, with this case reporting a unique transformation to plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL).
- Genetic analysis showed that the transformation involved identical gene rearrangements, indicating a clonal process.
- The findings suggest that the FL and PBL may have evolved from a shared ancestor cell rather than the PBL directly evolving from the FL, providing new insights into lymphoma behavior.
Increasing incidence of rectal cancer in patients aged younger than 40 years: an analysis of the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results database.

Stich Radiation Oncology Center, Weill Cornell Medical Center/New York Presbyterian Hospital, New York, New York 10065, USA.
Background: The incidence of rectal cancer in the United States in young patients is considered to be low. Underestimating this incidence may result in a failure to diagnose younger patients with rectal cancer in a timely manner.
Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective cohort study using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) cancer registry data.

Aspergillus immunohistochemistry of culture-proven fungal tissue isolates shows high cross-reactivity.
Appl Immunohistochem Mol Morphol
December 2009
Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Weill-Cornell Medical Center/New York-Presbyterian Hospital, NY 10065, USA.
Increased use of immunosuppressive drugs has broadened the range and increased the incidence of invasive fungal diseases. Successful therapy relies on early diagnosis; however, fungal organisms show overlapping morphology on histologic sections. As commercially available fungal immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been validated for crossreactivity with few other fungi, we ran Aspergillus and Candida IHCs on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue of fungal cases.

Seizure
January 2008
Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, Weill-Cornell Medical Center & New York Hospital Queens, United States.
Background: Routine EEGs in individuals with epilepsy have interictal spikes in 56% of cases. The availability of prolonged EEG has changed the use of EEG in the assessment of epilepsy.
Objective: To determine the time to first epileptiform activity on EEG in patients with epilepsy.
Comparative study of the new colorimetric VITEK 2 yeast identification card versus the older fluorometric card and of CHROMagar Candida as a source medium with the new card.
J Clin Microbiol
January 2006
Weill Cornell Medical Center/New York Presbyterian Hospital, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, New York 10021, USA.
The new VITEK 2 colorimetric card was compared to the previous fluorometric card for identification of yeast. API 20C was considered the "gold standard." The new card consistently performed better than the older card.
