💧 Pancreatic Cyst Fluids in IPMN v. MCN: Why is amylase ⬆️ in IPMN but not in MCN?🤔 B/c IPMN communicates w pancreatic duct, so has acinar secretions💧from neighboring acinar cells. MCN is isolated by itself. At least that's how I understand it. #pathx #pathologx #gipath

Nice example of decoy cell.

Biliary tract biopsy-10 tips to recognize cancer when conventional criteria fail you 1. Dysplasia does not produce a stricture, this finding almost always represent carcinoma 2. Most adenocarcinomas do not elicit desmoplasia when invading the mucosa 3. Abrupt transitions between

Pitfall alert! Dedifferentiated liposarcoma can aberrantly stain with CD117, which may be problematic in biopsy from an intra-abdominal mass. Resection showed clearcut abrupt transition between well-differentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcoma. #TheJPCNCR #PathTwitter
