A metagenomic analysis of the virome of inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma.

INTRODUCTION: Inverted papilloma (IP) is a sinonasal tumor with a well-known potential for malignant transformation. The role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in its pathogenesis has been controversial. The purpose of this study was to determine the virome associated with IP, with progression to carcinoma in situ (CIS), and invasive carcinoma. METHODS: To determine the HPV-specific types, a metagenomics assay that contains 62,886 probes targeting viral genomes in a microarray format was used. The platform screens DNA and RNA from fixed tissues from eight controls, 16 IP without dysplasia, five IP with CIS, and 13 IP-associated squamous cell carcinoma (IPSCC). Paired with next-generation sequencing, 48 types of HPV with 857 region-specific probes were interrogated against the tumors. RESULTS: The prevalence of HPV-16 was 14%, 42%, 70%, and 73% in control tissue, IP without dysplasia, IP with CIS, and IPSCC, respectively. The prevalence of HPV-18 had a similar progressive increase in prevalence, with 14%, 27%, 67%, and 74%, respectively. The assay allowed region-specific analysis, which identified the only oncogenic HPV-18 E6 to be statistically significant when compared with control tissue. The prevalence of HPV-18 E6 was 0% in control tissue, 25% in IP without dysplasia, 60% in IP with CIS, and 77% in IPSCC. CONCLUSIONS: There are over 200 HPV types that infect human epithelial cells, of which only a few are known to be high-risk. Our study demonstrated a trend of increasing prevalence of HPV-18 E6 that correlated with histologic severity, which is novel and supports a potential role for HPV in the pathogenesis of IP.

Does the presence of capsule influence prognosis in poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma?

We collected all cases of poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma at our institution diagnosed between 2007 and 2022 to investigate the role of tumor capsule in these neoplasms along with other histologic factors that may lead to adverse patient outcomes. After the exclusion of those meeting criteria for differentiated high-grade thyroid carcinoma or anaplastic carcinoma, we were left with 65 cases with a poorly differentiated component. Four of those cases (6.2%) were entirely encapsulated with no invasion of the tumor capsule. Unencapsulated tumors showed significantly greater rates of extrathyroidal extension (75.0% versus 41.5%) and death from disease (45.5% versus 12.5%) than encapsulated tumors, regardless of capsular invasion, with no differences in sex, tumor size, angioinvasion, local recurrence, or metastasis. Compared with encapsulated tumors with invasion, encapsulated tumors without capsular invasion showed a strong male predominance (100% versus 38.8%). No encapsulated tumors without capsular invasion demonstrated local recurrence, metastasis, or death from disease. No differences in the percentage of poorly differentiated components were noted among the 3 groups, although there was a trend for encapsulated tumors to have a higher percentage of poorly differentiated components than unencapsulated tumors. We conclude that invasive tumors lacking a capsule demonstrate greater rates of disease-related death despite showing similar adverse histologic features to invasive encapsulated tumors. Moreover, we confirm that encapsulated tumors without capsular invasion have excellent long-term outcomes in terms of recurrences, metastases, and survival.

Salivary gland neoplasms in small biopsies and fine needle aspirations.

Salivary gland neoplasms are rare and represent a diverse group of head and neck tumors. Their diagnosis in limited cellularity specimens can be challenging as many of these have overlapping clinical, radiological presentation, and pathologic features. Fine needle aspiration and/or core biopsies are more of a norm than rarity to be performed preoperatively to provide invaluable information that can guide clinical management including surgery. Even though these limited specimens may not always provide a definitive diagnosis; they have high sensitivity in confirming primary neoplasia, assessing the tumor grade, and ruling out non-surgical disease. An algorithmic pattern based approach can help narrow the differential diagnosis; leading to a definitive diagnosis with the help of specific ancillary studies.

Carcinoma Ex Pleomorphic Adenomas: An Institutional Experience and Literature Review.

OBJECTIVES: To provide an institutional experience with cases diagnosed as carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA), including the cytologic and histologic findings and clinical follow-up, followed by a comparison to the experience documented in the literature. METHODS: We identified cases of CXPA diagnosed at our institution from 2011 to 2021 and reviewed the cytologic and histologic diagnoses, as well as the treatment and clinical outcomes. Additionally, a literature review of the English literature was performed on CXPAs from 2011 to 2021. RESULTS: Forty-one cases of CXPA were identified, with the majority subclassified as adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified. Five tumors underwent cytogenetic studies and five underwent molecular studies. To date, 36 patients are alive, 8 of whom experienced locoregional recurrence or distant metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: Our institutional experience was comparable to that reported in the literature. Further studies are required to inquire about the role of molecular profiles of CXPAs in clinical risk assessment.

Cytomorphology of follicular dendritic cell sarcoma: a report of 7 cases with an emphasis on the diagnostic challenges.

BACKGROUND: Follicular dendritic cell sarcoma is a malignant neoplasm derived from germinal center follicular dendritic cells, which both share a characteristic immunophenotype (namely CD21, CD23, and CD35). Cytomorphologic descriptions are few, consisting of only 26 prior cases from 24 publications. Identification by cytologic means appears challenging as the majority of previous reports disclose an erroneous or indeterminate initial cytologic diagnosis. Herein, we present the largest cytology series to date with the aim of expanding upon this small body of literature and discuss possible factors resulting in misinterpretation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective search was conducted from 2 academic medical centers to identify histologically confirmed cases of follicular dendritic cell sarcoma with an associated cytologic component. Clinicopathologic data were tabulated and a comparative analysis of cytomorphologic and immunohistochemical features was performed. RESULTS: Seven separate cases were identified. All cases showed cohesive tumor cells with a characteristic voluminous, ill-defined cytoplasm with interconnecting fibrillary processes and intimately admixed mature lymphocytes. Features were maintained across various cytologic preparations, including conventional smear, liquid-based cytology, and touch imprint. Unusual immunohistochemical profiles were noted in a subset of cases. CONCLUSIONS: Cytomorphology is highly conserved across cases and preparations; however, a propensity for aberrant immunoexpression may contribute to diagnostic errors. Cytomorphologic features, supported by immunohistochemistry, suggest fine-needle aspiration as a reasonable diagnostic modality. Tumors with these features should include CD21, CD23, and/or CD35 in the workup.

HPV E6 regulates therapy responses in oropharyngeal cancer by repressing the PGC-1α/ERRα axis.

Therapy with radiation plus cisplatin kills HPV+ oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCCs) by increasing reactive oxygen species beyond cellular antioxidant capacity. To explore why these standard treatments fail for some patients, we evaluated whether the variation in HPV oncoprotein levels among HPV+ OPSCCs affects mitochondrial metabolism, a source of antioxidant capacity. In cell line and patient-derived xenograft models, levels of HPV full-length E6 (fl-E6) inversely correlated with oxidative phosphorylation, antioxidant capacity, and therapy resistance, and fl-E6 was the only HPV oncoprotein to display such correlations. Ectopically expressing fl-E6 in models with low baseline levels reduced mitochondrial mass, depleted antioxidant capacity, and sensitized to therapy. In this setting, fl-E6 repressed the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1α/estrogen-related receptor α (PGC-1α/ERRα) pathway for mitochondrial biogenesis by reducing p53-dependent PGC-1α transcription. Concordant observations were made in 3 clinical cohorts, where expression of mitochondrial components was higher in tumors of patients with reduced survival. These tumors contained the lowest fl-E6 levels, the highest p53 target gene expression, and an activated PGC-1α/ERRα pathway. Our findings demonstrate that E6 can potentiate treatment responses by depleting mitochondrial antioxidant capacity and provide evidence for low E6 negatively affecting patient survival. E6's interaction with the PGC-1α/ERRα axis has implications for predicting and targeting treatment resistance in OPSCC.

Indeterminate Thyroid Fine-Needle Aspirations in Pediatrics: Exploring Clinicopathologic Features and Utility of Molecular Profiling.

INTRODUCTION: The diagnostic utility of molecular profiling for the evaluation of indeterminate pediatric thyroid nodules is unclear. We aimed to assess pediatric cases with indeterminate thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) alongside clinicopathologic features and mutational analysis. METHODS: A retrospective review of 126 patients with indeterminate cytology who underwent FNA between January 2010 and December 2021 at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia was performed. Indeterminate cases defined by The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (AUS/FLUS or TBSRTC III; FN/SFN or TBSRTC IV; SM or TBSRTC V) were correlated to clinicopathologic and genetic characteristics. RESULTS: Of the 114 surgical cases, 48% were malignant, with the majority of malignant cases diagnosed as follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (28/55). Risk of malignancy increased with TBSRTC category: 23% for AUS/FLUS, 51% for FN/SFN, and 100% for SM nodules. There were significant differences in surgical approach (p < 0.01), performance of lymph node dissection (p < 0.01), histological diagnosis (p < 0.01), primary tumor focality/laterality (p = 0.04), and lymphatic invasion (p = 0.02) based on TBSRTC classification, with resultant differences in post-surgical risk stratification per American Thyroid Association (ATA) Pediatric Guidelines (p = 0.01). Approximately 89% (49/55) of cases were classified as ATA low risk, and 5 of 6 patients with ATA intermediate- or high-risk disease had SM cytology. Somatic molecular testing was performed in 40% (51/126) of tumors; 77% (27/35) of malignant cases and 38% (6/16) of benign cases harbored driver alteration(s). Of the driver-positive malignant cases, 52% (14/27) were associated with low risk (DICER1, PTEN, RAS, and TSHR mutations), 33% (9/27) were associated with high risk (BRAF mutations and ALK, NTRK, and RET fusions), and 15% (4/27) had unreported risk for invasive disease (APC, BLM, and PPM1D mutations and TG-FGFR1 fusion). Incidence of high-risk drivers increased with TBSRTC category. Approximately 23% (8/35) of patients harboring thyroid malignancy did not have an identifiable driver alteration. CONCLUSIONS: Molecular analysis is useful to discriminate benign and malignant thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytology. Patients with driver genetic alteration(s) and indeterminate cytology should consider surgical management secondary to the high incidence (82%; 27/33) of thyroid malignancy in these patients.

A benchmark for oncologic outcomes and model for lethal recurrence risk after transoral robotic resection of HPV-related oropharyngeal cancers.

OBJECTIVES: Increasing use of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is likely to impact outcomes for HPV+ oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCCs). We aimed to describe oncologic outcomes for a large HPV+ OPSCC cohort after TORS and develop a risk prediction model for recurrence under this treatment paradigm. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 634 HPV+ OPSCC patients receiving TORS-based therapy at a single institution were reviewed retrospectively to describe survival across the entire cohort and for patients suffering recurrence. Risks for distant metastatic recurrence (DMR) and locoregional recurrence (LRR) were modeled using multivariate logistic regression analyses of case-control sub-cohorts. RESULTS: 5-year overall and recurrence-free survival were 91.2% and 86.1%, respectively. 5-year overall survival was 52.5% following DMR and 83.3% after isolated LRR (P = .01). In case-control analyses, positive surgical margins were associated with DMR (adjusted OR 5.8, CI 2.1-16.0, P = .001), but not isolated LRR, and increased DMR risk 4.2 fold in patients with early clinical stage disease. By contrast, LRR was associated with not receiving recommended adjuvant therapy (OR 13.4, CI 6.3-28.5, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: This study sets a benchmark for oncologic outcomes from HPV+ OPSCC after TORS-based therapy. Under this treatment paradigm, margins are relevant for assessing lethal recurrence risk during clinical trial design and post-treatment surveillance.

Role of the androgen, estrogen, and progesterone receptors in adherent perinephric fat in robotic partial nephrectomy.

To determine whether androgen, estrogen, and/or progesterone signaling play a role in the pathophysiology of adherent perinephric fat (APF). We prospectively recruited patients undergoing robotic assisted partial nephrectomy during 2015-2017. The operating surgeon documented the presence or absence of APF. For those with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), representative sections of tumor and perinephric fat were immunohistochemically stained with monoclonal antibody to estrogen α, progesterone, and androgen receptors. Patient characteristics, operative data, and hormone receptor presence were compared between those with and without APF. Of 51 patients total, 18 (35.3%) and 33 (64.7%) patients did and did not have APF, respectively. APF was associated with history of diabetes mellitus (61.1% vs 24.2%, p = 0.009) and larger tumors (4.0 cm vs 3.0 cm, p = 0.017) but not with age, gender, BMI, Charleston comorbidity index, smoking, or preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate. APF was not significantly associated with length of operation, positive margins, or 30-day postoperative complications but incurred higher estimated blood loss (236.5 mL vs 209.2 mL, p = 0.049). Thirty-two had ccRCC and completed hormone receptor staining. The majority of tumors and perinephric fat were negative for estrogen and progesterone while positive for androgen receptor expression. There was no difference in hormone receptor expression in either tumor or perinephric fat when classified by presence or absence of APF (p > 0.05). APF is more commonly present in patients with diabetes or larger tumors but was not associated with differential sex hormone receptor expression in ccRCC.

Targeted gene expression profiling of inverted papilloma and squamous cell carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Inverted papilloma (IP) is a sinonasal tumor with a well-known potential for malignant transformation. The purpose of this study was to identify the genes and pathways associated with IP, with progression to carcinoma-in-situ and invasive carcinoma. METHODS: To determine genes and molecular pathways that may indicate progression and correlate with histologic changes, we analyzed six IP without dysplasia, five IP with carcinoma-in-situ, and 13 squamous cell carcinoma ex-IP by targeted sequencing. The HTG EdgeSeq Oncology Biomarker Panel coupled with next-generation sequencing was used to evaluate 2560 transcripts associated with solid tumors. RESULTS: Progressive upregulation of 11 genes were observed (CALD1, COL1A1, COL3A1, COL4A2, COL5A2, FN1, ITGA5, LGALS1, MMP11, SERPINH1, SPARC) in the order of invasive carcinoma > carcinoma-in-situ > IP without dysplasia. When compared with IP without dysplasia, more genes are differentially expressed in invasive carcinoma than carcinoma-in-situ samples (341 downregulated/333 upregulated vs. 195 downregulated/156 upregulated). Gene set enrichment analysis determined three gene sets in common between the cohorts (epithelial mesenchymal transition, extracellular matrix organization, and coagulation). CONCLUSIONS: Progressive upregulation of genes specific to IP malignant degeneration has significant clinical implications. This panel of 11 genes will improve concordance of histologic classification, which can directly impact treatment and patient outcomes. Additionally, future studies on larger tumor sets may observe upregulation in the gene panel that preceded histologic changes, which may be useful for further risk stratification.

Utility of Fine-Needle Aspirations to Diagnose Pediatric Thyroid Nodules.

INTRODUCTION: Risk of malignancy for pediatric thyroid nodules classified according to The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) is not well defined. Correlations between risk of malignancy and ancillary clinical data remain inconclusive. We report a single institutional experience of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) to improve upon current management paradigm of thyroid nodules. METHODS: A retrospective chart review of 575 thyroid nodules was performed of 324 patients who underwent 340 FNAs between 2008 and 2018 at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Demographics, ultrasound (US) characteristics, FNA cytology, surgical pathology, and ancillary data were reviewed. RESULTS: The rate of malignancy according to TBSRTC was 0.0% for category I, 0.8% for category II, 15.6% for category III, 54.5% for category IV, 100.0% for category V, and 100.0% for category VI. The cumulative Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) score was significantly correlated with benign and malignant nodules on pathology (p < 2.2e-16). Distribution of TI-RADS for cytologically indeterminate nodules with benign or malignant pathology revealed significant differences for composition (p = 3.20e-8) and echogenic foci (p = 0.005) but not for echogenicity (p = 0.445), shape (p = 0.160), margins (p = 0.220), and size (p = 0.105). Distributions of thyroid-stimulating hormone levels between benign and malignant patients was significant (p = 1.58e-3). CONCLUSIONS: Nodules with TI-RADS scores >3 should undergo FNA, irrespective of size; surgical resection is recommended for nodules classified as TBSRTC category IV and V due to high risk of malignancy. US surveillance instead of FNA can be performed for nodules with TI-RADS scores ≤3.

Correlation of p16 immunostaining in cell-blocks with corresponding tissue specimens for squamous cell carcinomas of the oropharynx.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to evaluate the performance of p16 staining in cell-blocks vs tissue specimens as a surrogate marker for human papillomavirus (HPV) status in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas. METHODS: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cases presenting as a neck mass with a p16 result on cytology and corresponding tissue specimens (1 January 2014 to 30 June 1920) were included in the study. The following were assessed from cell-block material: number of tumour clusters, percentage of tumour cells with p16 staining, and presence of staining in clusters vs single cells. Results were compared to tissue p16 status. Results of any other ancillary HPV testing were also noted. RESULTS: Forty-two head and neck squamous cell carcinoma neck metastases (35 oropharyngeal, five non-oropharyngeal, and 2 unknown primaries) were identified. The p16 staining pattern in cell-blocks was seen in single cells (27.6%), clusters (44.8%), or both (27.6%). The percentage of tumour cells staining for p16 in cell-blocks was much lower than in corresponding tissue specimens. There were four false negatives and one false positive (concurrent HPV DNA polymerase chain reaction testing was positive in cytology and surgical material). CONCLUSIONS: Compared to tissue, the cut-off for p16 interpretation in cell-blocks is substantially lower and staining may be present in single cells or clusters. In 96.9% of cases, any p16 staining in cell-blocks correlated with positive p16 staining in surgical specimens. However, a negative or discrepant p16 result on cell-block should prompt confirmatory HPV studies, as false negative p16 staining in cell-blocks is high.

The Milan system for reporting salivary gland cytopathology: A comprehensive review of the literature.

BACKGROUND: The Milan system for Reporting Salivary Gland Cytopathology (MSRSGC) was published in 2018. Since then, many authors have published their institutional experience by retrospectively assigning salivary gland fine-needle aspiration cases to each of the MSRSGC categories and calculated their risk of malignancy (ROM) accordingly. METHODS: We reviewed all published articles available online in English that used the MSRSGC since or near its publication. We calculated the risk of neoplasm and ROM for each diagnostic category. In addition, the false-negative and false-positive rates from all studies were examined. RESULTS: Thirty-seven articles were identified in the English literature; 2 were published in 2017, 14 in 2018, 18 in 2019, and 3 in 2020. The total number of cases was 16 394, and 8 468 had surgical follow-up. The mean ROM was 16.9% for category I, 10.5% for category II, 39.3% for category III, 2.9% for category IVa, 39.4% for category IVb, 84.2% for category V, and 97.5% for category VI. The mean false-negative rate for MSRSGC categories II and IVa was 4.5%. Similarly, the mean false-positive rate for MSRSGC categories V and VI was 5.1%. CONCLUSION: A tiered classification scheme of MSRSGC is helpful in effectively guiding clinical management of patients with salivary gland lesions. The reported mean ROM for each category in most studies is within the recommended range published by the MSRSGC.

Identifying predictors of HPV-related head and neck squamous cell carcinoma progression and survival through patient-derived models.

Therapeutic innovation for human papilloma virus-related (HPV+) head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) is impaired by inadequate preclinical models and the absence of accurate biomarkers. Our study establishes the first well-characterized panel of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) and organoids from HPV+ HNSCCs while determining fidelity of the models to the distinguishing genetic features of this cancer type. Despite low engraftment rates, whole exome sequencing showed that PDXs retain multiple distinguishing features of HPV+ HNSCC lost in existing cell lines, including PIK3CA mutations, TRAF3 deletion and the absence of EGFR amplifications. Engrafted HPV+ tumors frequently contained NOTCH1 mutations, thus providing new models for a negatively prognostic alteration in this disease. Genotype-phenotype associations in the models were then tested for prediction of tumor progression and survival in published clinical cohorts. Observation of high tumor mutational burdens (TMBs) in the faster-growing models facilitated identification of a novel association between TMB and local progression in both HPV+ and HPV- patients that was prognostic in HPV- cases. In addition, reduced E7 and p16INK4A levels found in a PDX from an outlier case with lethal outcome led to detection of similar profiles among recurrent HPV+ HNSCCs. Transcriptional data from the Cancer Genome Atlas was used to demonstrate that the lower E2F target gene expression predicted by reduced E7 levels has potential as a biomarker of disease recurrence risk. Our findings bridge a critical gap in preclinical models for HPV+ HNSCCs and simultaneously reveal novel potential applications of quantifying mutational burden and viral oncogene functions for biomarker development.

Hürthle-cell neoplasms of the thyroid: An algorithmic approach to pathologic diagnosis in light of molecular advances.

Our understanding of neoplasia is evolving at a rapid pace in these exciting times, where recent molecular pathology advances are reinforcing and fine tuning morphological divisions and classification. Thyroid gland neoplasia in general, and Hürthle-cell neoplasms in particular, are no exception in the current era of histopathology-molecular biology paradigm. In this review paper, we discuss the rationale that led pathologists in the past to separate Hürthle-cell neoplasms into its own dedicated diagnostic category, and provide an algorithmic approach to the differential diagnosis of oncocytic lesions of the thyroid. This review will also shed light on the current WHO classification of Hürthle-cell neoplasms in light of molecular advances that justify histopathologic distinctions.

Salivary gland disease in the era of COVID-19 pandemic.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic forced significant changes in current approach to outpatient evaluation of common otolaryngology complaints as hospitals around the world are trying to limit the spread of the virus and to preserve health care resources. These changes raise a lot of questions regarding patient triage and treatment decisions in clinical situations when it is unclear if the workup and management can be postponed. In this communication, we present our approach to evaluation and triage of new patients with complaints concerning for salivary gland disease.

Current Status of p16 Immunohistochemistry and HPV Testing in Fine Needle Aspiration Specimens of the Head and Neck.

Human papilloma virus (HPV)-related squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is biologically unique and has a better prognosis than conventional SCC of the head and neck. p16 immunohistochemistry emerged as a valuable surrogate marker for HPV in oropharyngeal SCC. The criteria for a positive p16 result in tissue specimens are well established. However, there is no consensus regarding interpreting p16 staining in cell blocks and other cytology specimens. This review discusses the current evidence on p16 testing in cytology specimens and also highlights other methods for HPV testing, including DNA and RNA in situ hybridization, as well as other molecular HPV tests.

Hyaluronic acid induced foreign body reaction mimicking neoplastic parotid cytology.

Masses near the angle of the mandible containing extracellular matrix or mucin on cytology raise concern for various benign and malignant parotid gland neoplasms. Here a 76-year-old female with a history of cosmetic hyaluronic acid (HA) filler injections presented with a painless 6 mm left sided facial mass. Injection of hyaluronidase into the mass had failed to cause regression, raising concern for a neoplastic process. Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) showed amorphous, mucinous/extracellular matrix-like material in a background of numerous histiocytes and occasional multinucleated giant cells, consistent with a foreign body giant cell reaction to HA. This uncommon reaction to HA filler creates previously unrecognized diagnostic pitfalls because of its resemblance on FNA to the extracellular matrix or mucin found in many salivary neoplasms.
