Former Mucinous Bronchioloalveolar Carcinoma Revisited
نویسندگان
چکیده
This is a brief case report of invasive multicentric mucinous adenocarcinoma presented at a rather young age with bronchorrhea and persistent consolidation that ended up with the patient demise; nevertheless, we demonstrate relevant radiological and pathological features with emphasis on the new classification of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, a term that should no longer be in use.

Anatomic Pathology / CDX2 SEPARATES MUCINOUS BRONCHIOLOALVEOLAR FROM METASTATIC MUCINOUS COLORECTAL CARCINOMA Usefulness of Cdx2 in Separating Mucinous Bronchioloalveolar Adenocarcinoma of the Lung From Metastatic Mucinous Colorectal Adenocarcinoma
We studied the diagnostic value of Cdx2 to distinguish mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinoma from mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma metastatic to the lung. We retrieved 92 via the hospital computer system, including 30 mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinomas, 32 nonmucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinomas, and 30 mucinous colorectal adenocarcinomas metastatic to the lung. All cases were confirmed...

In 2011,mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinoma was reclassified as invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma, mucinous adenocarcinoma in situ,and mucinous minimally invasive adenocarcinoma.A part of the invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma of the lung differentiates to gastric mucous cells, and we term this type of carcinoma gastric-like invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma.However,treatment approaches have not ...
متن کاملUltrastructural comparison of "alveolar" and "solid" areas in bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.
The purpose of this study was to compare the ultrastructural features of bronchioloalveolar carcinomas, contrasting the well-differentiated alveolar component and the poorly-differentiated solid component in the same tumor. We studied 7 cases of non-mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinomas by electron microscopy. Two of these cases showed lamellar bodies in both the alveolar and solid components ...

We studied 14 mucinous and 26 nonmucinous bronchioloalveolar adenocarcinomas (BACs) with thyroid transcription factor (TTF), cytokeratin (CK) 7, CK20, and villin to characterize their staining patterns with these antibodies and identify staining differences between the neoplasms. We also stained 11 mucinous colon adenocarcinomas with the same antibodies to compare their reaction patterns with m...
متن کاملMucinous Carcinoma of the Breast with Neuroendocrine Differentiation
Mucinous carcinoma of the breast is a well-differentiated type of adenocarcinoma accounting for 2-5% of all breast cancers. Pure mucinous carcinoma of the breast has a favorable prognosis, usually seen in post-menopausal women. Neuroendocrine differentiation has been described in both in-situ and infiltrating breast cancers .Mucinous carcinomas of the breast appear to have the greatest associat...
