Solid papillary carcinoma of the breast is a distinctive form of intraductal papillary carcinoma frequently associated with both mucinous carcinoma and infiltrating ductal carcinoma, not otherwise specific. To our knowledge, this case is the first description of the cytologic aspects of solid papillary carcinoma of the breast in the Korean literature. We experienced a case of solid papillary carcinoma of the right breast diagnosed by fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC) in a 70-year-old female. FNAC from the right breast showed high cellularity consisting of mostly tight clusters of tumor cells and a few scattered tumor cells. The nuclei were monotonously round to oval in shape with inconspicuous nucleoli. The cytoplasm was abundant and finely granular. Scant amount of mucinous material was present on the background. The diagnosis was confirmed histologically and immunohistochemically.

The columnar cell variant of papillary carcinoma is a rare tumor of the thyroid, associated with aggressive behavior, early metastasis, and a rapidly fatal course. We present the fine needle aspiration cytologic(FNAC) findings of columnar ceil variant of papillary carcinoma with cytohistologic correlation. In the smears, the tumor fragments showed mainly papillary pattern and a few scattered individual cells were present around the papillary fragments. The tumor cells were columnar or cuboidal and exhibited pseudostratification of the nuclei. The nuclei were oval to elongated with finely stippled chromatin and inconspicous nucleoli. Neither nuclear grooves nor intracytoplasmic inclusion was found. The FNAC diagnosis was consistent with papillary carcinoma. Total thyroidectomy was done and the histologic finding of the mass showed a predominantly papillary and focal solid proliferation of columar cells with marked nuclear pseudostratification. The unique histopathologic features and highly aggressive nature of columnar ceil variant of papillary carcinoma require that this variant should be differeniated from common papillary carcinoma of the thyroid.

A 73-year-old man presented with a chief complaint of progressive left knee pain for two months. He had a history of total thyroidectomy and central lymph node dissection due to papillary thyroid carcinoma three months ago. MRI images revealed a solid mass in the left patella. A solid mass demonstrated low signal on T1 weighed image, and high signal on T2 weighed image. And whole body bone scan showed focal photon defect in same lesion of left patella. The histologic result of left knee lesion was adenocarcinoma, consistent with metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma. Although patellar metastasis of papillary thyroid carcinoma is very rare, when knee pain and radiologic abnormality are noted, differential diagnosis of metastasis is necessary.

Two cases with papillary cystic neoplasm of the pancreas are reviewed and discussed. Up to recently, the tumors have been misclassified as nonfunctioning islet cell tumor or carcinoma, acinar cell carcinoma, papillary cystadenocarcinoma, or pancreatoblastoma. It frequently has been managed with aggressive surgery such as pancreatoduodenectomy. The tumors are well encapsulated and the cut surfaces are characteristically solid and hemorrhagic. Ultrasonography and CT scan are the most useful tools for the diagnosis. The neoplasms usually behave like a very low grade malignancy, so complete removal is the treatment of choice for the tumor arising anywhere in the pancreas. We have a boy and a girl who have papillary cystic neoplasm. The boy was 12 years old and the girl was 14 years old. Both underwent distal pancreatectomy and the progress were uneventful.

Gross and light microscopic findings are described for 34 canine sweat gland neoplasms including tumors derived from apocrine gland in anal sac and ceruminous gland in ear. Affected dogs are usually 5.2 years and sex predilection have not been seen. Sweat gland carcinoma(n=19) is predominant type for sweat gland neoplsm, while papillary syringadenoma(n=2) and spiradenoma(n=2) are rare type in this study. Distinct patterns identified in cutaneous sweat gland carcinoma are tubular(n=7), solid(n=5), mixed(n=4), papillary(n=2) and signet-ring(n=1). Mixed tumors which are characterized by myxomatous and chondroid metaplasia are seen in cutaneous sweat and ceruminous gland. The carcinoma derived apocrine gland of the anal sac induces humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy in two dogs in this study. Histologically, apocrine gland carcinoma of the anal sac has distinct rossette formation.

Solid pseudo-papillary tumor (SPT) is a rare pancreatic neoplasm with low malignant potential, which tends to occur predominantly in younger females. Only a few cases of SPT seen on F-18 FDG PET scan have been reported, and the findings are not fully evaluated. A 33 year-old woman underwent F-18 FDG PET/CT study for staging of renal cell carcinoma. She was diagnosed with SPT of the pancreas 6 years ago, and has not had any treatment so far. Recent PET/CT showed marked F-18 FDG uptake in the peripheral solid portion and relatively less F-18 FDG uptake to the central calcified portion of SPT. We report one case of SPT of the pancreas on F-18 FDG PET/CT.

Objective: To investigate the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) features of fumarate hydratase-deficient renal cell carcinoma (FH-deficient RCC) with germline or somatic mutations, and compare them with those of papillary type II RCC (pRCC type II). Materials and Methods: A total of 24 patients (mean ± standard deviation, 40.4 ± 14.7 years) with pathologically confirmed FH-deficient RCC (15 with germline and 9 with somatic mutations) and 54 patients (58.6 ± 12.6 years) with pRCC type II were enrolled. The MDCT features were retrospectively reviewed and compared between the two entities and mutation subgroups, and were correlated with the clinicopathological findings. Results: All the lesions were unilateral and single. Compared with pRCC type II, FH-deficient RCC was more prevalent among younger patients (40.4 ± 14.7 vs. 58.6 ± 12.6, p < 0.001) and tended to be larger (8.1 ± 4.1 vs. 5.4 ± 3.2, p = 0.002). Cystic solid patterns were more common in FH-deficient RCC (20/24 vs. 16/54, p < 0.001), with 16 of the 20 (80.0%) cystic solid tumors having showed typical polycystic and thin smooth walls and/or septa, with an eccentric solid component. Lymph node (16/24 vs. 16/54, p = 0.003) and distant (11/24 vs. 3/54, p < 0.001) metastases were more frequent in FH-deficient RCC. FH-deficient RCC and pRCC type II showed similar attenuation in the unenhanced phase. The attenuation in the corticomedullary phase (CMP) (76.3% ± 25.0% vs. 60.2 ± 23.6, p = 0.008) and nephrographic phase (NP) (87.7 ± 20.5, vs. 71.2 ± 23.9, p = 0.004), absolute enhancement in CMP (39.0 ± 24.8 vs. 27.1 ± 22.7, p = 0.001) and NP (50.5 ± 20.5 vs. 38.2 ± 21.9, p = 0.001), and relative enhancement ratio to the renal cortex in CMP (0.35 ± 0.26 vs. 0.24 ± 0.19, p = 0.001) and NP (0.43 ± 0.24 vs. 0.29 ± 0.19, p < 0.001) were significantly higher in FH-deficient RCC. No significant difference was found between the FH germline and somatic mutation subgroups in any of the parameters. Conclusion: The MDCT features of FH-deficient RCC were different from those of pRCC type II, whereas there was no statistical difference between the germline and somatic mutation subgroups. A kidney mass with a cystic solid pattern and metastatic tendency, especially in young patients, should be considered for FH-deficient RCC.

심한 호흡곤란을 주소로 내원한 67세 남자의 영상소견상 종격동의 거대 낭성 종양이 기관을 압박하여 편이시키는 소견이 보여 응급 개흉술을 통해 종양을 절제하였다. 조직 소견상 갑상선의 유두상 암종에 합당하였고 수술 후 시행한 갑상선 초음파 검사와 양성자 단층촬영상 잠재성 갑상선 암종에 합당한 소견을 보였다. 갑상선의 유두상 암종이 초기에 원격 전이를 보이는 경우는 드물며 대부분 단독 결절의 형태를 취하나, 잠재성 암종이 종격동에 거대 낭성 전이를 하는 경우는 극히 드물어 보고하는 바이다.

Sclerosing hemangioma is a rare, benign neoplasm of the lung, usually presented as a solitary pulmonary nodule in an otherwise asymptomatic middle-aged woman. Cytologically it shows papillary, sheet, and cyst-like arrangements representing three main histologic patterns of papillary, solid, and angiomatous ones, respectively. Herein, we report the fine needle aspiration cytology of 5 cases of sclerosing hemangioma of the lung. The most characteristic finding is cyst-like spaces Intimately related to the papillary or solid cell nests. The tumor cells are relatively monotonous round to oval, small to medium in size. They have small amount of eosinophilic cytoplasm. The nuclei are uniform, round and have small but conspicuous nucleoli. The tumor cells in one of the presenting cases are large with abundant cytoplasm and show moderate nuclear pleomorphism. The nuclear chromatin, however, is fine and even without exception, even in the case showing nuclear pleomorphism. Major differential diagnoses based on the cytologic findings are well-differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma, bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, and carcinoid tumor.
