Methods/Results: Twenty cases of SCLC and 10 control cases (one non-Hodgkin lymphoma, three non-small cell carcinomas 2 days ago ยท To characterize SMARCA4-deficient thoracic malignancies with small cell lung cancer (SCLC)-like features as a heterogeneous disease spectrum. Sep 20, 2022 ยท Small cell lung cancer is most often located at the hilum and grows along the bronchi. We retros… In small biopsy specimens, the nuclei of small cell carcinoma commonly show crush artifact with elongation, clumping, and diffusion of chromatin material. ABSTRACT Neuroendocrine tumors of lung comprise 20%–25% of all invasive lung malignancies, most common being Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). The term “crush artifact” refers to the phenomenon where the cancerous cells appear Radiopaedia’s mission is to create the best radiology reference the world has ever seen and to make it available for free, for ever, for all. ๐ Patients often present with: • Cough • Shortness of breath • Chest pain Imaging may reveal a large mediastinal mass. Background/Aims: The diagnosis of small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) on bronchial biopsy is often problematical as a result of intense crush artefact. However, a small subset of tumors retains Rb expression and exhibits distinct molecular features. How Is Primary Mediastinal Large B-Cell Lymphoma Diagnosed? ๐งฌ As with all lymphomas: ๐ Imaging suggests, but pathology confirms. Abstract The occurrence of nuclear crush artifact (NCA) in cytologic specimens of small cell undifferentiated carcinoma (SCUC) and other carcinomas of the lung, lymphoma and benign lymphoid proliferations was studied to determine its diagnostic usefulness. bxkgplqteuklyxnhmjeiqomuclkqebrohbjyggpsnnznskocaa
