Sorry for the delay
ReplyDelete10) Hyalinizing trabecular neoplasm - Dr. Sun just had one in association with a papillary (some say they are a variant, some say they are follicularly derived, either way since this pt had a real papillary present it was fully staged based on it)
11) This was called tall cell variant of papillary. There IS a difference b/w tall cell and columnar. Columnar is MUCH rarer, usu worse, and nuclei aren't much like papillary, clumpy chromatin and overall looks like endometroid adeno. Tall cell has very eosinophlic cells (sometimes called pink cell variant) with nuclear features of papillary.
12) Wow you guys got Cribriform morular variant of papillary! too good! Associated with FAP and mutations in the APC gene.
