The single buds are attached by a narrow isthmus to the parent cell, which distinguishes them from Blastomyces dermatitidis, in which the connection is broader. Angiomyolipoma of the liver in fineneedle aspiration biopsies: its distinction from hepatocellular carcinoma. Inflammatory cells Mononuclear and polymorphonuclear cells are common Relate to menstrual cycle and menopausal status Multinucleated histiocytes seen in menopausal samples. Palisading and minor architectural and nuclear atypia at surface of endocervical polyp (H&E). Furthermore, the cytopathologist must give a confident type-diagnosis of the various benign bone tumours and sarcomas if open biopsy is to be avoided. Tumour cell nuclei are usually robust, and traumatised cells, cell debris or streaks of nuclear material are not a feature, although bare nuclei are prominent in some cases. Because the remnants are situated within cervical stroma and rarely reach the surface, cytological presentation is uncommon. In these cases recognition of the inappropriate immaturity of the nucleus compared to the cytoplasm and subtle abnormalities of nuclear chromatin are important in establishing the diagnosis. In Western countries most lymphomas are of B-cell lineage with immunoglobulin light chain expression restricted to either kappa or lambda. In conventional smears the criteria have been, at best, subjective and semi-quantitative. Occasionally the proliferation is nodular and peripherally placed nodules containing lymphoid and epithelial cells may be mistaken for malignancy in a cervical lymph node. It is of the utmost importance in these conditions, however, that microbiological culture is undertaken for confirmation of the infectious agent. These cases are generally less cellular and show degenerative features with a background of debris and macrophages. A genuine infection is suspected when hyphae and pseudohyphae are intimately related to inflammatory debris in a sample that is clearly of lower respiratory tract origin. Well-differentiated follicular neoplasms of the thyroid: reproducibility and validity of a decision tree classification based on nucleolar and karyometric features. Residual, benign pleomorphic adenoma must be identified in order to make this diagnosis. They correspond to the Call-Exner bodies which are characteristic of this type of tumour the individual cells of granulosa cell tumour are homogeneous in appearance and have scanty cytoplasm the nuclei are round to oval with granular evenly distributed chromatin and small nucleoli. Contrary to naturally exfoliated cells in effusions, the mechanically dislodged cells in washings may not be round and may show angulated rhomboidal/trapezoidal shapes with centrally placed, bland nuclei. Welldifferentiated intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma in the setting of biliary papillomatosis: a case report and review of the literature. As mentioned above, the presence of the peripherally wrapping endothelial pattern is a finding that excludes renal cell carcinoma, but the transgressing pattern is not. Of the cestodes that have been described, Echinococcus granulosus, the causative agent of hydatid disease, can be identified by finding hooklets and scolices in inflamed necrotic debris in sputum or bronchial secretions. Sometimes patients become confused regarding dosage; therefore, written instructions and a system to monitor timing is essential to prevent a missed dose or an overdose. The immune response is intended to recognize and remove undesirable material from the tissues. A high nuclear:cytoplasmic ratio and irregular distribution of preserved chromatin are features of malignancy and are not part of the usual spectrum of radiation changes. They are hypothesised to be formed from mucus secreted by mucus-producing adenocarcinoma cells in neoplastic conditions. Cytological findings: adrenal cyst Clear, turbid or bloody fluid is aspirated the samples are poorly cellular with occasional inflammatory cells and debris Occasional adrenal cortical cells are seen If haemorrhage has occurred in to the cyst erythrocytes and haemosiderin-containing macrophages are present the possibility of cystic degeneration in an adrenal tumour should be considered and the appropriate cytological features sought In endemic areas hydatid cyst is a possible differential diagnosis. At lower magnification, other structures such as acinar and glandular arrangements may show morphological features overlapping with proliferation spheres but such groups are significantly smaller and careful scrutiny at higher magnification with fine focus adjustment usually shows the central space. There is crowding of the cells in the basal third of the epithelium, so that the basal layer is no longer distinct. For example, carriers of the sickle cell gene have demonstrated increased resistance to malaria. Intercellular connections are noted in electron microscopy between the individual cells within the file. Unfortunately not all individuals participate in immunization programs, therefore infectious disease outbreaks persist.

Cytopathologists need to be aware that reaspiration within a few weeks of a previous aspirate can show changes resulting from haematoma formation and healing. It can be difficult to differentiate between keratoacanthoma and squamous cell carcinoma on histopathological examination and even more difficult cytologically. Some years the epidemic has occurred at an earlier time and individuals have not yet received their immunization. Fibres measuring up to 5 m are usually cleared from the lungs without causing disease, whereas longer ones are phagocytosed by alveolar macrophages. Transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy following negative fiberoptic bronchoscopy in solitary pulmonary nodules. Typically, smears from lipoma consist of fragments of adipose tissue composed of large cells containing a single vacuole of fat and a small dark peripheral nucleus. In this analysis cytology had an increased tendency to miss clinical rejection episodes but proved most reliable in monitoring non-functioning or stable grafts. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy: a powerful tool to obtain samples from small lesions. Architecturally common patterns are trabecular and an alveolar paragangliomatous arrangement. Bacterial infections occur mostly in adult females but also may occur in patients with urinary tract obstruction,55 such as stones, or men with prostatic hypertrophy, and patients with nerve damage. Radiologically guided percutaneous fine-needle aspiration biopsy of pelvic and retroperitoneal masses: a retrospective study of 68 cases. This aspirate contained numerous foamy macrophages (upper arrowhead) and amorphous debris (lower arrowhead). When the capability for initiating an effective cough is impaired, secretions tend to accumulate, and the risk of pneumonia increases. There have been a number of cases in which gene testing was conducted on embryos (from in vitro fertilization) to ensure birth of a child whose tissue was compatible with that of an older sibling, ill with leukemia. Fatty replacement of atrophic parenchyma, sialolipoma, periparotid lipomata and sialometaplasia in pleomorphic adenoma are other causes of fat cells in an aspirate. Thus, invasive methods based on biopsy histology are necessary for the evaluation of liver rejection. If the inflammation persists, adhesions can form, causing fixation and deformity of the joint. Smog is visible air pollution that contains both noxious gases, such as hydrogen sulfide, and particles from dust and smoke. Prominent vascularity may be noted but papillary formation as seen in solid pseudopapillary neoplasms. This investigation will be focused on various organs depending on factors such as age, sex, clinical history, site of metastatic node and the cytological features. The cells characteristically are dispersed and include small lymphocytes and mature plasma cells, with coarse chromatin, larger less mature follicle centre cells which may show mitotic figures, and histiocytes containing tingible bodies (see Ch. Removal of the mass may be fairly easy if it is located on the brain surface but difficult and dangerous if it is located elsewhere. Many questions concerning the use, possible complications, and potential for abuse of genetic testing procedures still remain to be answered. Curling of some mesothelial sheets on to themselves may impart a three-dimensional appearance. Describe your response to a sudden severe pain in your own experience; for example, an injury. Local anaesthesia is seldom required but when needed, it could be administered in spray form. In the absence of keratinisation, the cells may be mistaken for adenocarcinoma or reactive mesothelial cells. He has gained weight but has eaten very little during the past week and has been quite irritable and lethargic. Correlation between testicular histology and outcome after intracytoplasmic sperm injection using testicular spermatozoa. Droperidol (a neuroleptic) and fentanyl (a narcotic analgesic) are a popular combination. Predict why a person usually has chickenpox only once in a lifetime but may have influenza many times.

Other masses, such as lactating adenoma and galactocele arise de novo in pregnancy. Identifying the primary of these non-epithelial malignancies based on cytomorphology alone is difficult, because they often exhibit variable morphological features in effusions different from the initial primary tumour. These particles can be identified specifically using electron probes and other procedures. The diagnosis may be less obvious if spindled histiocytes predominate and giant cells are absent. In contrast, usually the nuclear border forms a significant proportion of this peripheral outline of the groups in adenocarcinoma cell clusters. Vegetable cells usually have thick straight cellulose walls although of variable appearance. Mesothelial cells can create a diagnostic pitfall especially when reactive and atypical leading to a false positive interpretation of carcinoma. Abundant cytoplasm could result in difficulty in discrimination between neoplasia and florid repair (ThinPrep). The nuclei are enlarged and have prominent nucleoli, with condensation of chromatin on the nuclear membrane. The primary tumour is usually known but occasionally 11 Kidney and retroperitoneal tissues renal metastases are the first manifestation. Date rape drugs have become another form of substance abuse in which the person who administers the drug gets a rush from the illicit behavior and the abused may experience physical and psychological trauma. Colposcopic examination is therefore appropriate if leukoplakia is present, even in the absence of dyskaryotic squamous cells in the cytology sample, to rule out serious underlying pathology. Even in predominantly clustered dyskaryotic cell populations, small numbers of dispersed dyskaryotic cells are usually present. Sampling error and associated acute inflammation may results in false negative diagnoses. These factors increase susceptibility to injury, bruising occurs frequently, and the mucosal membranes become inflamed or ulcerated. With progressive maturation, the cells increasingly resemble intermediate and superficial cells from the original ectocervix and therefore cannot be recognised as a separate cell population in cervical samples. These cells have been shown to arise from areas of tubal or tuboendometrioid metaplasia in the vicinity of the external os of the cervix at the site of previous surgical treatment. Squamous, columnar and alveolar epithelial cells are affected and the changes are of a similar nature in each cell type. High-grade urothelial carcinoma Cytological findings: high-grade urothelial carcinoma. Fineneedle aspiration with flow cytometry immunophenotyping for primary diagnosis of intra-abdominal lymphomas. Value of endobiliary brush cytology and biopsies for the diagnosis of malignant bile duct stenosis: results of a prospective study. The body normally has a tendency toward acidosis, or a lower pH, because cell metabolism is constantly producing carbon dioxide (co2) or carbonic acid (H2co3) and nonvolatile metabolic acids such as lactic acid, ketoacids, sulfates, or phosphates. Metastatic signet ring carcinoma of the breast as a source of positive cervicovaginal cytology. When saprophytic, as in 20% of cases, spores and pseudohyphae are sparse in the sample, lying between or on top of the squamous cells. In the quest to attain perfection we have attempted to separate in to clearly defined entities a condition that in reality is a continuum of change, not always easy to distinguish from normality. Submission of a combined spatula and brush smear on one slide is a compromise but one or both components of such a smear are likely to show airdrying artifact. Delivery at a local level involves many individuals and organisations whose roles are described in Box 22. The presence of inflammation and the lack of single cells that exhibit the classic features of homogeneous cytoplasm with slight nuclear enlargement and nuclear membrane irregularity are signs that the atypia is secondary to reactive change rather than a low-grade urothelial carcinoma. Fungi reproduce by budding, extension of the hyphae, or producing various types of spores. The virus replicates in the epithelial cells at the tip of villi in the small intestine. They consist of pale flask-shaped vesicles from which a projecting crown of stalks bearing chains of conidia can be seen.

Degenerative changes in mesothelial cells may lead to a single large cytoplasmic vacuole. Thus, cardiac output and cardiac reserve are diminished, decreasing the maximum cardiac output possible with stress. Bile droplets in hepatocytes or between the cells indicate either impaired graft function or extracellular cholestasis during rejection. From your knowledge of normal physiology, explain how good nutrition could reduce the complications or additional problems associated with cancer and its treatment. Long-term surveillance is required for all women treated fro cervical adenocarcinoma in situ. In less-differentiated tumours, scattered isolated cells with more cyanophilic cytoplasm, enlarged nuclei and more apparent nucleoli are commonly seen. It has become evident that prolonged exposure to numerous environmental factors such as radiation, viral infections, and chemicals over the years leads to an increased risk of cancer and other diseases in older people. Serosanguinous effusions may show haematoidin crystals with haemosiderin-laden macrophages. Staging of a tumor at the time of diagnosis is based on the size of the primary tumor, the involvement of nearby lymph nodes, and the presence of distant metastases. The cellular components provide for the metabolism, growth, reproduction, and unique characteristics of the bacterium. The neoplastic cells show a single, large cytoplasmic vacuole (arrow) pushing the nucleus to the cell periphery. The background stromal substance is closely tangled with cells and stains Dominance of one cell type Cytological atypia Globules of basement membrane material Cystic change Mucin production Squamous, mucinous, sebaceous metaplasia. Where there is clinical suspicion biopsy will be necessary to exclude a sclerosing malignancy of the thyroid, particularly the spindle cell variant of anaplastic carcinoma. Many factors contribute to it, including decreased activity, low fiber and fluid intake, and excessive use of laxatives. Cell cannibalism, either epithelium-epithelium and epithelium-inflammatory cells, may be found. Often, no sample can be expressed from the needle or a trace of acellular fluid is obtained. Cyclooxygenase-2 and epidermal growth factor receptor expressions in different histological subtypes of cervical carcinomas. The diagnosis of such typical metastases does not present significant problems, but their site of origin may be difficult to determine. If the presence of the mutated gene can be documented, avoidance of certain environmental factors or close monitoring of the individual may minimize the risk of development of the disease. This can be a diagnostic dilemma even on small biopsy specimens and has major prognostic and therapeutic impact on the patient. Pseudomyxoma peritonei this refers to the presence of a high content of mucin in ascitic fluid. Multinucleated giant cell and histiocytes in a necrotic background with granulocytes. Gupta52 reports that actinomycotic infection can cause clinical symptoms of lower genital tract inflammation, including a malodorous brownish discharge in some cases. Cytologically, the typical herpetic nuclear inclusions may be more difficult to identify unless immunocytochemistry or in situ hybridisation is used to highlight the cells. An ill-defined irregular hypoechoic mass in the pancreatic head of a 65-year-old male engenders a different differential diagnosis from that of a welldefined, round mass in the pancreatic tail of a 35-year-old female. Therefore it is essential for the adolescent to maintain basic nutritional requirements. The cytomorphological details are best observed in the cells along the periphery of such groups by adjusting the fine focus. If this method proves successful over time, it would replace the daily administration required now for this high-risk cancer.

Very large three-dimensional epithelial aggregates, cribriform and solid, often more cohesive than high-grade lesions Cell monotony Micropapillary groups True papillary structures Monolayer sheets Variable number of single cells; usually few, but occasional cases may present as an almost pure single cell population Microcalcifications Occasional comedo type necrosis Low to moderate nuclear atypia. The epithelial cells lie singly or in sheets and have nuclei of uniform chromasia, although they may vary a little in size. Yield of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration of bile duct lesions. Larger, better preserved nuclei than usually seen in sputum and more cohesive aggregates. Iron-negative foci in siderotic macroregenerative nodules in human cirrhotic liver. Metachromatic, granular ground substance is present in pleomorphic adenoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, epithelial myoepithelial carcinoma and basal cell neoplasms. Diagnostic accuracy and pitfalls in fine-needle aspiration interpretation of Warthin tumor. Precautions are required when clients have internal sources of radiation to minimize radiation exposure of other persons. These metaplastic squamous cells have abundant cytoplasm with keratohyaline granules. Preventive medication may be used by some patients on a daily basis or just before a known migraine trigger. From your own experience, describe a sharp pain, an aching pain, and a cramping pain. Describe the characteristics and role of each of the following in the pain pathway: a. The classical multiple moulded nuclei are particularly a feature of infections of squamous epithelium. Reactive and inflammatory processes Acute pancreatitis Acute pancreatitis is a disease of sudden onset, which may follow episodes of alcohol abuse, trauma or obstruction of the pancreatic duct by stones or tumour. Organisms are present in low numbers, and are more difficult to identify than in the lepromatous form. Some viruses such as the influenza virus are composed of nucleic acids from differing viral strains in animals and humans. The cytomorphology of the malignant cells in the current fluid specimen should correspond to that of the primary neoplasm. Although transudative effusions usually do not require diagnostic evaluation for malignant cells, exudative effusions generally need cytological evaluation to determine their cause. Cumulative damage is manifested by the development of skin cancers resulting from ultraviolet rays related to sun exposure, as seen frequently in older individuals. Normally skeletal muscle contractions as part of regular activity assist in returning the venous blood to the heart. The breasts become larger as the ducts and glands develop preparatory to milk production, and fatty deposits in the breast tissue increase. Dispersed cells of small cell carcinoma usually do not maintain cytoplasm whereas lymphoma cells usually do. Deep breathing and cough effectiveness may be restricted by immobility, predisposing to stasis of secretions in the lungs, followed by pneumonia. Multinucleated histiocytes are frequently found during the menopause, having no association with any endometrial pathology. Pyknosis involves complete loss of the visible chromatin structure and it is unwise to make a diagnosis of dyskaryosis unless the diagnostic abnormal chromatin pattern is seen in some of the abnormal cells. The effect of tamoxifen on cervical squamous maturation in Papanicolaou stained cervical smears of postmenopausal women. A relative prominence of the endocrine component is seen on histology due to destruction of the acinar component, collapse of the remaining parenchyma and subsequent islet cell aggregation. The nuclei may be pleomorphic and hyperchromatic and the cytoplasm is vacuolated, producing a hobnail appearance at the cell surface. This is particularly important since other methods of diagnosis may take longer to complete, may not be available, or may not be as accurate. Cells from a high-grade lymphoma may be mistaken for poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Technical aspects the nature of the specimen relates to the clinical problem to be investigated.

Immunohistochemistry in the differential diagnosis of mesothelioma and adenocarcinoma. Deep to this the submucosa includes a few capillaries, lymphatics and inflammatory cells (H&E). Some conditions lead to a cytological pattern which clearly deviates from the general types described above. Ulceration of the tumour and purulent discharge may be reflected by blood and leukocytes in the cytology preparation. Subdividing atypical glandular cells of undetermined significance according to the Australian modified Bethesda system: Analysis of outcomes. Tao371 refers to a similar case with a proliferating network of blood vessels and adherent, irritated alveolar cells. Fine-needle aspiration cytology of mammary adenomyoepithelioma: a study of 12 patients. This specificity of antigen for antibody, similar to a key opening a lock, is a significant factor in the development of immunity to various diseases. If the initial cytological features are not consistent with metastatic disease, repeating the cytopathological examination is recommended, especially when the effusion recurs or persists. Non-inflammatory lesions included spermatocele, haematoma/torsion, hydrocele, benign epididymal cyst and calcinosis cutis. Appropriate clinical details and judicious use of special stains may enable the cytologist to confirm the diagnosis in some cases. There are also some alterations in chromatin, usually with mild hyperchromasia and stippling of the chromatin pattern. These gates may close under the influence of natural endorphins or other stimuli, thus inhibiting the passage of pain impulses to the brain. Cyst-fluid analysis in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions: a meta-analysis. An angiolipoma should be suspected when the tumour is small, tender at palpation and numerous branching capillary vessel fragments are seen in the fat tissue fragments. They can be confused with benign or malignant respiratory tract cells,44 but have refractile cell walls and a repetitive structure, lacking the pleomorphism of tumour cells and the true nuclear features of malignancy. Viscous specimens may be thinned with a suitable mucolytic agent such as dithiothreitol (in 50 g/mL final concentration). Guidance on the use of liquid-based cytology for cervical screening Technology Appraisal Guidance No. Exfoliative cytology of oral lesions may replace tissue biopsy in lesions that are clinically not obviously suspicious for malignancy but nevertheless need surveillance. Spontaneous infarction of a pleomorphic adenoma in parotid gland: diagnostic problems and review. The group is composed of cohesive small polygonal cells with regular darkly stained nuclei. Histologically, they are composed of endocervical tissue covered by columnar, squamous or immature metaplastic epithelium and are often inflamed. Vulval skin includes numerous hair follicles and sebaceous, eccrine and apocrine glands but, despite this, skin adnexal tumours are unusual. Adenocarcinoma Gastric adenocarcinoma is still one of the commonest forms of malignancy worldwide. The false negative rate is particularly dependant on sample adequacy with an appropriate quantity of good-quality material presented for staining and interpretation. By contrast, progestogens are responsible for proliferation arrest, glandular secretion and differentiation of stromal cells. There are only a few documented cases of spermatic granuloma cytology in the literature. Brushing sampling may be performed on any portion of the urinary tract and are often collected in conjunction with a washing.

Subclinical infections are difficult to control because it is not apparent that the person is infected and control measures may not be put in to place. The cytological appearances of vaginal embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma are as previously described for the cervix. Immunocytochemical analysis and cytomorphologic diagnosis on fine-needle aspirates of lymphoproliferative disease. The nuclei are large and pale staining with a ground glass appearance due to peripheral displacement of the chromatin. If surgical removal of the ovaries is necessary before menopause occurs naturally, similar effects will be evident. Diagnosing Helicobacter pylori by imprint cytology: can the same biopsy specimen be used for histology Clinical impact of on-site cytopathology interpretation on endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration. Needle track seeding of papillary thyroid cancer from fine needle aspiration biopsy. In haematocele, the specimen contains blood and/or phagocytosed erythrocytes and siderophages, depending on the duration of haematocele. Large and small multinucleated giant cells of histiocytic origin accompany the mononuclear cells. Subtyping of lymphomas in conventional cervical smears is not reliable but liquid-based preparations offer the possibility of immunostaining the abnormal cells with a panel of antibodies for phenotyping and accurate classification. Scirrhous ductal carcinomas provide the lowest cell yield of all proliferative breast lesions while high-grade, poorly collagenous ductal carcinoma can provide even the novice with a very thick spread of aspirated cells. Groups of atypical mesothelial cells with mesothelial windows are seen (long arrow) due to microvilli between the cells. In some fibroadenomas, a scattering of foamy macrophages or apocrine cells is seen. No direct relationship to cervical Diagnostic pitfalls: tubal metaplasia the presence of aligned ciliated cells is one of the most helpful features in distinguishing tubal metaplasia from endocervical glandular dysplasia, although cilia are not often preserved 672 25 Other tumours and lesions of cervix, vulva and vagina pre-cancer or invasive disease has been established but a recent study has suggested that transitional cell metaplasia may be related to human papillomavirus infection. While immature, they do not exfoliate spontaneously but can be lifted from the surface of the cervix by the abrading action of a spatula or brush. Although these specimens are processed just like serous effusions, their interpretation criteria need to be modified. The polyps are usually solitary, less than 3 cm across, asymptomatic, and often an incidental finding at the time of routine cervical cytology sampling. At the centre, there is a giant cell with a large multilobated nucleus with many huge nucleoli. Excess magnesium depresses neuromuscular function, leading to decreased reflexes, lethargy, and cardiac arrhythmias. Procedures such as rhizotomy or cordotomy to sever the sensory nerve pathway in the spinal nerve or cord may be done. Cytological findings: adenocarcinoma Gastrointestinal stromal tumours Ulcer slough containing single malignant cells Presence of papillary or glandular formations Signet-ring cell carcinomas show a few dissociated cells, with a prominent mucous vacuole, open chromatin and large nucleoli Poorly differentiated tumours may have squamous features. Metabolic alkalosis is caused by increased bicarbonate ion levels, perhaps from increased antacid ingestion. In the absence of these elements, it may be virtually impossible to distinguish a pancreatoblastoma from an acinar cell carcinoma. It also allows the overall assessment of the interstitium (Leydig cell number and hypertrophy). Following examination, the aspirator gains a further important diagnostic clue when the needle enters the lump. If the cortical bone is almost intact, an 18-gauge needle can be used, through which a 23-gauge needle may be inserted in to the lesion and multiple aspirations performed. The organism is now known to be a fungus and it is apparent that different types of Pneumocystis infect individual hosts. If however, as often happens, either the carcinomatous or sarcomatous element predominates there is a possibility that the lesser component will not be apparent or will be overlooked. Morphology will show different types of lymphocytes, some reactive others suspicious of clonal proliferation; there may also be atypical changes in the epithelium due to the presence of ulcerated mucosa as seen clinically. The cytoplasmic borders are clearly defined, making the cells appear to be framed.

Endometrioid adenocarcinoma may exhibit varied epithelial differentiation including squamous, secretory and ciliated and architectural patterns such as villous pattern. This effect is apparent in disorders such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, which is common in older persons. Legs should be elevated whenever possible, and restrictive clothing such as tight stockings should be avoided to enhance the flow of venous blood. Scanty bland spindle cells are seen, and more rarely, reactive giant cells are a feature. The changes are most pronounced in the third trimester, when numerous lactobacilli are seen and the accompanying cytolysis is at its height. Multinodular goitre presents clinically in approximately 5% of the population and the female to male ratio is at least 3:1. Apical snouts and luminal secretions with calcification, sometimes resembling psammoma bodies, are common. This may take several weeks depending on the extent of the procedure, the presence or absence of local infection and the general health of the patient. The nature of the disorder determines whether testicular enlargement will be bilateral. In frankly malignant cases, pleomorphic, high-grade spindle cells are seen, with a fibrosarcoma-type pattern. Cytopathologic touch preparations (imprints) from core needle biopsies: accuracy compared with that of fine-needle aspirates. The use of measures such as ice and mouth rinses is suggested to reduce the discomfort of ulcers and inflammation in the mouth. They are referred to as lower uterine segment sampling and are commoner in brush samples than in spatula smears. The number of naked myoepithelial cell nuclei will mirror the amount of epithelial cell groups and sheets. These terms do not apply to the occasional use on social occasions of a substance such as alcohol when the user feels no need to consume a large amount or to have a drink at regular short intervals. The smears may show cellular and nuclear pleomorphism within groups and cohesive three-dimensional epithelial aggregates with or without recognisable myoepithelial cells. The dental office is quite busy and the receptionist states that the dentist has had an emergency patient and there will be a delay before L. Before the introduction of the device in to the uterus, the sampling tip is held inside the outer tube. In order to have a more thoroughly sampled segment, particularly in stenotic lesions, cytology is incorporated in some centres to survey longstanding chronic inflammatory bowel disease,48 but the categories of high-grade, low-grade and indefinite for dysplasia are defined for biopsy specimens. Goblet cells have barrel shaped vacuoles filling the cytoplasm and are more frequent than in the small bowel (Box 7. Nuclear features may not be clearly discernible for evaluation of malignancy, but macronucleoli are suspicious of malignancy. There is, however, an important subsidiary role in the follow-up assessment of patients after treatment is complete. Attention to the larger groups may give an impression of a papillary structure and occasional bipolar cells may be found in the background. Inflammatory conditions Inflammation induces a cellular response that can be morphologically worrisome. Recognition of atypical reserve cell hyperplasia in cervical smears and its diagnostic significance. Lymphoma or leukaemia seldom present as an effusion without a known history,34 except in cases with an initial effusion presentation of systemic disease or in cases of primary effusion lymphoma. Microglandular hyperplasia, as described in the previous chapter, is sometimes seen in cytology samples from a polyp. There is an increased demand for protein, carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, and minerals to promote healthy tissue development during pregnancy. Note the variation in cell size and finely vacuolated cytoplasm with a few particles of ingested carbon. Numerous bare nuclei are present, which are differentiated from lymphocytes by lack of a cytoplasmic rim.

Similarly, the cytological findings will reflect this, and may be relatively uniform in an individual case. A few inflammatory cells and macrophages can be seen in the distorted alveolar spaces (H&E). A number of research projects are in process, including studies of the complement system and immune systems in affected individuals and their families. Granuloma formation due to substances such as beryllium or aluminium can be excluded in this way, as can silicosis. Multivesiculated macrophages: their implications in fine needle aspiration cytology of lung mass lesions. However, the diagnostic problems encountered in such cases may also arise when there is no known background of immunodeficiency. The stress response also results in an increased release of endorphins, which act as pain-blocking agents (see chapter 13). Tao332 describes clusters of uniform squamous cells, mucus secreting cells associated with squamous cells and spindle cells. The follicular cells, which occur dispersed and in groups, may appear cytologically bland and similar to those seen in aspirates from a multinodular goitre. Sometimes immunoglobulins are administered to an individual who has been exposed to an organism but has not been immunized in order to reduce the effects of the infection (for example, hepatitis B). Information about specific drugs can be found in reference texts on substance abuse or pharmacology. Discuss possible treatment measures, including radiation and chemotherapy, as well as nutrition. Thus the lower third of the vagina has a different embryological origin from the upper two-thirds. Physiological cytohormonal patterns these are best revealed in vaginal smears taken from the lateral vaginal wall, preferably sequentially; but the changes are mirrored by the findings in cervical smears. Fibroblasts are seen either dispersed or in groups or runs of loosely cohesive cells. But morphological features of some mesothelial cells with vacuoles may overlap with malignant cells and mislead one to interpret these cells as adenocarcinoma. This phenomenon occurs particularly in the presence of an intrauterine contraceptive device. At the end of the first pregnancy, when the placenta tears during delivery, some Rh-positive fetal blood enters the maternal circulation, stimulating the formation of antibodies to Rh-positive cells in the mother. Thymus and mediastinum the thymus is a lymphoepithelial organ that has a vital role in the development of T cells and natural-killer cells. There may be a physical response, perhaps rigidity, splinting, or guarding of an area of the body. In addition, in 46% of cases, the two reviews disagreed and this discordance resulted in significant changes in clinical care in 27% of cases. Bilateral thyroid hematomas after fine-needle aspiration causing acute airway obstruction. An additional, specific response may occur with certain stressors; for example, infection may initiate a fever. Nuclear rupture may, however, be a clue that dissociation of otherwise unremarkable epithelial cells may be artefactual rather than a sign of malignancy. Additional potential pitfalls include: poorly preserved, degenerate or scanty cells in improperly processed specimens. Advice that straw-coloured fluid from a breast cyst may safely be discarded should not lead to a missed diagnosis with this lesion as there is always likely to be a residual mass that will prompt immediate re-aspiration. When her heart begins to beat as though it "is trying to run away with me," she calls a friend to take her to the hospital. Cytological findings: hepatobiliary cystadenoma Thin to mucoid cyst fluid Foamy histiocytes Benign appearing mucinous glandular cells Subepithelial ovarian type stroma is not aspirated Generally few to no hepatocytes Benign hepatocytic nodules or masses Generally few to no hepatocytes Smears commonly non-diagnostic; specific diagnosis dependent on cell block.

Mucinous tubular and spindle-cell renal carcinoma of the kidney: cytopathologic findings. This carcinoma generally has a better prognosis than follicular carcinoma, with a 10-year survival of the order of 80%. Bronchogenic carcinoma Incidence and epidemiology the number of deaths due to lung cancer in China has risen by 465% in the last 30 years and it is the leading cause of death. Fewer capillaries are present and cell proliferation is decreased, resulting in slower wound healing and atrophy of the glands. Small numbers of lymphocytes may be recognised, although these are often inapparent due to dilution by blood. The latter areas form enlarged colloid nodules and the structure of these may break down, particularly after spontaneous haemorrhage, to form cysts. It is within the caseous material that tubercle bacilli are most likely to be found. Chondrocytes Normal chondrocytes are almost never seen as dissociated cells, but may be observed in lacunae in cartilaginous fragments. When attempting the localisation of lesions using selective bronchial washings, the possibility of intrabronchial contamination should be borne in mind. Degeneration of hepatocytes without inflammation in the graft is due to other causes, such as vascular complications or drug toxicity. Adenomatous chief cells contain less cytoplasmic lipid than normal or atrophic chief cells. During this time the organisms reproduce until there are sufficient numbers to cause adverse effects in the body. Effects of acidosis the direct effects of acidosis are manifested by the nervous system, in which function is impaired leading to inadequate responses. As the cells have small uniform nuclei and scant cytoplasm, it may resemble nephroblastoma. Carcinoma in situ- noninvasive Basement membrane Surface Basement membrane broken 2. Cytologically, there is seldom any difficulty in recognising the presence of malignancy and occasionally both the epithelial and heterologous elements are recognised in aspirates. A significant proportion of the cellular material sampled by a wooden spatula remains adherent to the spatula and is not transferred to the glass slide. Likewise if a respiratory or kidney disorder is the basic problem, it needs to be addressed. The urothelial cell shows nuclear enlargement, slight hyperchromasia and nuclear membrane irregularities.
