Some follicular lymphomas may appear to be BCL2-negative with commonly used IHC antibodies. Some of these cases have mutations in BCL2 that impact protein detection. Alternate BCL2 clones may be useful, as in this case. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… #pathology #hemepath

Oh Boy! This is a stunner. Pancreatic tumor. Youngish person. Diffusely keratin positive. Was called a poorly differentiated carcinoma. Sounds reasonable? #GIpath

Kudos to all the Path educators, who are continuing teaching in these uncertain times! What do you think these beautiful (hint: rosette-like) organisms are? #microbiology #pathology

Biopsy of an incidentally discovered 5 cm well-circumscribed retroperitoneal mass abutting the bladder in a middle aged adult. Does anyone want to hazard a guess before I show the IHC? #BSTpath #pathology

Good thoughts! B is Wilms tumor (mutation of WT1, CTNNB1, or AMER1) and C is retinoblastoma (RB1 or MYCN mutations). ☝️A is still pending correct answer... This is an infratentorial tumor. Any ideas?
