Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is minimally invasive, quick, and a definitive diagnostic modality. Biopsy for histopathology is the gold standard method for diagnosis but is invasive. The aims of this study were to determine th...

the distinction between malignant and benign pheochromocytoma has always been a diagnostic challenge over the last decades. to date, the only reliable criterion is metastasis. the aim of the present study was to investigate the possible expression of pituitary-tumor transforming gene (pttg1) and retinoblastoma (rb) in benign and malignant pheochromocytoma. paraffin blocks of 44 and 11 patients ...

Sertoli cell tumors of the testis are extremely rare tumors with a heterogeneous pathology. Three histological variants have been described: Sertoli cell tumor not otherwise specified (NOS), large cell calcifying sertoli cell tumor and the Sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor. The sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor described herein is associated with prominent stromal sclerosis. They present as painless...
