RESUMEN

Judging the carcinogenicity of human papillomavirus (HPV) types rarely found in cervical cancer (CxCa) is hindered by lack of studies of their biological activity in cancer tissues. To asses transcriptional activity of HPV types, we have developed ultra-short amplimer, splice-site specific, E6*I mRNA RT-PCR assays for 12 high-risk (HR)-HPV (IARC Group 1) and eight probable/possible high-risk (pHR)-HPV types (IARC Group 2A/B carcinogens). Previously unreported E6*I splice sites of the six pHR-HPV types 26, 53, 67, 70, 73 and 82 were identified by cloning and sequencing. We analyzed 97 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) Mongolian CxCa biopsies for presence of HPV DNA by two sensitive genotyping assays, for E6*I transcripts of all HR-/pHR-HPV types identified and for expression of HPV surrogate markers p16(INK4a), pRb and p53. E6*I of at least one HR-/pHR-HPV was expressed in 94 (98%) of cancer tissues including seven with pHR-HPV types 26, 66, 70 or 82 as single transcribed types. Fifty-eight of E6*I mRNA transcribing cases were analyzable by immunohistochemistry and displayed p16(INK4a) overexpression in 57 (98%), pRb downregulation in 56 (97%) and p53 downregulation in 36 (62%) tissues. The newly developed E6*I mRNA RT-PCR assays appeared to be highly sensitive method to analyze HPV transcription in FFPE materials. Our finding of viral oncogene transcription of pHR-HPV types 26, 66, 70 and 82 in cervical tumors, in the absence of any other transcriptionally active HR-type and with p16(INK4a) overexpression and pRb downregulation, may support a reassessment of the carcinogenicity classification of these pHR-HPV types.

RESUMEN

Prostate lymphomas are very rare, with few reported cases in the literature. However, differential diagnoses should be considered. We report a hematolymphoid tumor of the prostate in a 67-year-old man who was admitted to the hospital with hematuria and obstructive urinary symptoms. The patient underwent a cystoscopy procedure to obtain a biopsy from the prostate with bipolar resection. Histologically, sheets of lymphoid tumor cells resembling non-Hodgkin lymphoma, infiltrated into the prostatic tissue, were identified. The diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. The clinicopathologic characteristics of prostatic lymphomas are discussed in the light review literature.

RESUMEN

Background: Anatomical pathology care services play an essential role in cancer diagnosis through histological analysis, effective treatment of patients, and determination of prognosis. Therefore, quality control is necessary for the diagnosis of pathology. Based on this need, telepathology technology is rapidly developing in the world. This study aimed to share the experience of implementing telepathology case consultation between Mongolian and Japanese expert pathologists. Methods: The study included 173 cases that required telepathology consultation, which was complicated and doubtful in diagnosis, submitted by Mongolian pathologists between May 2019 and April 2022. The scanned digital slides were transmitted with the help of the LOOKREC cloud-based system, and the expert pathologists of Hiroshima University Hospital, Japan, browsed the images through the data on the internet and their advice and made a mutual diagnosis. Results: During the study period, 173 cases were consulted. Out of 58.4% of all cases, consultation reports were released in 2022. The majority of the cases in 2020 had a mean standard deviation turn-around time of 4.2±6.2 days. The most cases were from the lung and mediastinum were 29.4%, followed by head and neck at 12.6%, the bone at 11.9%, lymph nodes at 8.4%, GIT at 7.7%, soft tissues at 6.3%, etc. Comparing the sample submission of biopsy and cytology was significantly higher in the under 10 years of an experienced group than over 10 years of an experienced group (p<.005). The diagnostic agreement between submitter Mongolian pathologists and expert Japanese pathologists was 82.7%, and disagreement was 17.3% of all cases, with a sensitivity of 67.3% and specificity of 85.5%. Conclusions: Telepathology could save many lost opportunities and play an essential role in developing quality control and surgical pathology in Mongolia. This digital technology and the appropriate strategy and policy of the government could accelerate the overall pathology field development.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Few studies on human papillomavirus (HPV) have been conducted in Mongolia. This study was performed to evaluate the prevalent HPV genotypes and their associations with cytology and demographic and behavioral characteristics in Mongolian women with cervical abnormalities. METHODS: Exfoliated cell samples of 100 women who had a previous history of cervical abnormality were collected. Cytological interpretation was conducted microscopically and HPV genotyping was performed using the Roche Linear Array test. Study questionnaires were completed. RESULTS: Overall, 25 HPV genotypes were detected in 47% of participants, and the most prevalent were HPV 16, 52, 58, and 33. Cytological examination revealed 12% of participants had atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US), 8% had low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL), 7% had high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), and 14% had squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), while 59% of women had a normal cytology. HPV 16 was the most common type among women with a normal cytology and cervical cancer. However, women with cervical abnormalities including LSIL and HSIL were predominantly infected with HPV 52. Moreover, women aged <35 years had a significantly higher risk of HPV infection than those in the other age groups (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The prevalent trend of HPV genotypes observed in this cohort differs from that reported previously in Mongolia. These data may contribute to developing an effective strategy for cervical cancer prevention in Mongolia.
