RESUMEN
The first part of the guidelines and recommendations for musculoskeletal ultrasound, produced under the auspices of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB), provides information about the use of musculoskeletal ultrasound for assessing extraarticular structures (muscles, tendons, entheses, ligaments, bones, bursae, fasciae, nerves, skin, subcutaneous tissues, and nails) and their pathologies. Clinical applications, practical points, limitations, and artifacts are described and discussed for every structure. After an extensive literature review, the recommendations have been developed according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine and GRADE criteria and the consensus level was established through a Delphi process. The document is intended to guide clinical users in their daily practice.

The second part of the Guidelines and Recommendations for Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSUS), produced under the auspices of EFSUMB, following the same methodology as for Part 1, provides information and recommendations on the use of this imaging modality for joint pathology, pediatric applications, and musculoskeletal ultrasound-guided procedures. Clinical application, practical points, limitations, and artifacts are described and discussed for every joint or procedure. The document is intended to guide clinical users in their daily practice.

Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC) is a low-grade adnexal carcinoma with controversial lines of differentiation. We present here an example of MAC showing histopathologic findings of germinative follicular differentiation in the form of solid aggregates of trichoblastoma intermingled with neoplastic aggregates of MAC. Immunohistochemical findings, showing positivity for PHLDA1 and negativity for BerEp4 in neoplastic aggregates of trichoblastoma, also supported a germinative follicular differentiation. Follicular differentiation in MAC supports an apocrine line of differentiation for this neoplasm.
