Accurate diagnosis of cancer of unknown primary (CUP) poses a significant daily challenge for pathologists, necessitating reliable immunohistochemical (IHC) markers. SATB2 is a transcription factor primarily expressed in colorectal neoplasms. This study investigates the IHC expression of SATB2 in malignant melanomas (MM). Using tissue microarrays (TMAs) from Aalborg University Hospital, Denmark, comprising 56 primary and 12 metastatic MMs, we evaluated SATB2 expression through H-scores. We found that 48% of MM cases expressed SATB2, predominantly with weak to moderate staining intensity. Although no significant difference was observed between primary and metastatic MMs, a higher median H-score was noted in metastatic lesions. The results highlight the potential diagnostic pitfall of SATB2 expression in MM and underline the need for careful interpretation.

准确诊断原发灶不明的癌症(CUP)对病理学家来说是一项重大的日常挑战,需要可靠的免疫组化(IHC)标记物。SATB2 是一种主要在结直肠肿瘤中表达的转录因子。本研究调查了 SATB2 在恶性黑色素瘤(MM)中的 IHC 表达。利用丹麦奥尔堡大学医院的组织微阵列(TMA)(包括 56 例原发性和 12 例转移性 MM),我们通过 H 评分评估了 SATB2 的表达。我们发现,48% 的 MM 病例表达 SATB2,主要为弱至中等染色强度。虽然在原发性和转移性 MM 之间没有观察到明显的差异,但在转移性病灶中H-评分的中位数较高。这些结果凸显了SATB2在MM中表达的潜在诊断隐患,并强调了谨慎解读的必要性。

Distinction of metastasis to the breast from a breast primary, particularly high-grade triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), can be challenging due to nonspecific morphology and immunohistochemical (IHC) profiles. Among metastases to the breast, high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) of müllerian origin is most likely to be misdiagnosed as TNBC. We assessed breast and müllerian markers on TNBC and HGSC, including keratin 7, keratin 20, GATA3, GCDFP15, mammaglobin, p53, PAX8 (MRQ50 and BC12 clones), TRPS1, SOX10, and WT1. Of 151 TNBC cases, TRPS1 had the highest sensitivity, showing expression in 149 (98.7%) cases, followed by SOX10 (110/151; 72.8%), GATA3 (102/151; 67.5%), GCDFP15 (29/151; 19.2%), and mammaglobin (27/151; 17.9%). PAX8 positivity was seen in 40.4% (61/151) of TNBC via the MRQ50 clone but was negative in all via the BC12 clone. Of 185 HGSC cases, PAX8 via the MRQ50 clone was the most sensitive (179/185; 96.8%), followed by WT1 (171/185; 92.4%) and PAX8 via the BC12 clone (164/185; 88.6%). In addition, TRPS1 positivity was seen in 75 HGSC cases (40.5%). Aberrant p53 patterns were seen in 64.9% (98/151) of TNBC and 94.1% (174/185) of HGSC. TRPS1 positivity in HGSC and PAX8 positivity via the MRQ50 clone in TNBC represent potential pitfalls in assessing high-grade carcinoma for which the differential diagnosis includes TNBC and HGSC. However, with this knowledge, utilization of a panel of breast and müllerian markers, including preferential use of the PAX8 BC12 clone, can facilitate accurate diagnosis.

由于非特异性的形态和免疫组化(IHC)特征,将乳腺转移瘤与乳腺原发癌,尤其是高级别三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)区分开来具有挑战性。在乳腺转移瘤中,来源于缪勒管的高级别浆液性癌(HGSC)最容易被误诊为 TNBC。我们评估了TNBC和HGSC的乳腺和苗勒氏标记物,包括角蛋白7、角蛋白20、GATA3、GCDFP15、mammaglobin、p53、PAX8(MRQ50和BC12克隆)、TRPS1、SOX10和WT1。在151个TNBC病例中,TRPS1的敏感性最高,在149个病例(98.7%)中均有表达,其次是SOX10(110/151;72.8%)、GATA3(102/151;67.5%)、GCDFP15(29/151;19.2%)和mammaglobin(27/151;17.9%)。40.4%的TNBC(61/151)通过MRQ50克隆检测出PAX8阳性,但通过BC12克隆检测出的PAX8均为阴性。在185例HGSC病例中,通过MRQ50克隆检测的PAX8最敏感(179/185;96.8%),其次是WT1(171/185;92.4%)和通过BC12克隆检测的PAX8(164/185;88.6%)。此外,在 75 例 HGSC(40.5%)中发现了 TRPS1 阳性。64.9%的TNBC(98/151)和94.1%的HGSC(174/185)出现p53模式异常。HGSC中的TRPS1阳性和TNBC中通过MRQ50克隆的PAX8阳性是评估高级别癌的潜在隐患,其鉴别诊断包括TNBC和HGSC。不过,有了这些知识,利用乳腺和苗勒氏管标记物面板,包括优先使用 PAX8 BC12 克隆,可以促进准确诊断。

Expression of B7-H3 and B7-H4 in Gastric Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors. 胃肠道间质瘤中 B7-H3 和 B7-H4 的表达
IF 1.3 4区 医学 Q3 ANATOMY & MORPHOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-02 DOI: 10.1097/PAI.0000000000001227

Gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are mesenchymal neoplasms with variable behavior characterized by differentiation toward the interstitial cells of Cajal occurring anywhere in the gastrointestinal stromal tract. The management of GIST was revolutionized by the introduction of imatinib, a KIT inhibitor, which has become the standard first-line treatment for metastatic GIST. However, despite a clinical benefit rate of 80%, the majority of patients with GIST experience disease progression after 2 to 3 years of imatinib therapy. This shows the need for novel treatment approaches for imatinib refractory GISTs. The checkpoint proteins B7-H3 and B7-H4 inhibit the activation and function of T cells by potently suppressing the proliferation, cytokine production, and cytotoxicity of activated T cells, which is a mechanism for immune escape. This study aims to clarify B7-H3 and B7-H4 expression in gastric GISTs using immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). We confirmed B7-H3 expression (H-score ≥50 points) in 92% and B7-H4 expression in 0% of GIST samples. We examined B7-H3 mRNA expression in 3 representative GIST samples, each having their respective immunostained areas detected by RT-PCR. B7-H3 is expressed at a particularly high rate in GISTs. This suggests that B7-H3 might operate as part of an immune checkpoint in GISTs.

胃肠道间质瘤(GIST)是一种间叶肿瘤,其特征是向卡贾尔间质细胞分化,发生在胃肠道间质的任何部位,表现各异。伊马替尼(一种 KIT 抑制剂)的问世彻底改变了 GIST 的治疗方法,它已成为转移性 GIST 的标准一线治疗药物。然而,尽管伊马替尼的临床获益率高达 80%,但大多数 GIST 患者在接受伊马替尼治疗 2 到 3 年后病情仍会恶化。这表明,伊马替尼难治性 GIST 需要新的治疗方法。检查点蛋白B7-H3和B7-H4通过有效抑制活化T细胞的增殖、细胞因子产生和细胞毒性来抑制T细胞的活化和功能,这是一种免疫逃逸机制。本研究旨在利用免疫组化和反转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)明确胃癌 GIST 中 B7-H3 和 B7-H4 的表达。我们在 92% 的 GIST 样本中证实了 B7-H3 的表达(H 评分≥50 分),在 0% 的 GIST 样本中证实了 B7-H4 的表达。我们检测了 3 个具有代表性的 GIST 样本中 B7-H3 mRNA 的表达情况,每个样本都通过 RT-PCR 检测了各自的免疫染色区域。B7-H3 在 GIST 中的表达率特别高。这表明,B7-H3 可能是 GIST 中免疫检查点的一部分。

A Modified Bleaching Method for Multiplex Immunofluorescence Staining of FFPE Tissue Sections. 用于 FFPE 组织切片多重免疫荧光染色的改良漂白法
IF 1.3 4区 医学 Q3 ANATOMY & MORPHOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-10-07 DOI: 10.1097/PAI.0000000000001228

Multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) staining plays an important role in profiling biomarkers and allows investigation of co-relationships between multiple biomarkers in the same tissue section. The Cell DIVE mIF platform (Leica Microsystems) employs an alkaline solution of hydrogen peroxide as a fluorophore inactivation reagent in the sequential staining, imaging, and bleaching protocol for use on FFPE sections. Suboptimal bleaching efficiency, degradation of tissue structure, and loss of antigen immunogenicity occasionally are encountered with the standard bleaching process. To overcome these impediments, we adopted a modified photochemical bleaching method, which utilizes an intense LED light exposure concurrent with the application of hydrogen peroxide. Repeated stain/bleach rounds with different antibodies were performed on breast tissue and other tissue sections. Residual signal after conventional bleaching and the modified technique were compared and tissue integrity and antigen immunogenicity were assessed. The modified technique effectively eliminates fluorescence signal from previous staining rounds and produces consistent results for multiple rounds of staining and imaging. With the modified method, photochemical treatments did not destroy tissue sub-cellular contents, and the tissue antigenicity was well preserved during the entire mIF process. Overall processing time was reduced from 36 to 30 hours in an mIF procedure with 8 rounds. With the conventional method, tissue quality was highly degraded after 8 rounds. The new technique allows reduced turn-around time, provides reliable fluorophore removal in mIF with excellent maintenance of tissue integrity, facilitating studies of the co-localization of multiple biomarkers in tissues of interest.

多重免疫荧光(mIF)染色在分析生物标记物方面发挥着重要作用,可以研究同一组织切片中多种生物标记物之间的相互关系。Cell DIVE mIF 平台(徕卡显微系统公司)采用碱性过氧化氢溶液作为荧光团灭活试剂,依次进行染色、成像和漂白,适用于 FFPE 切片。标准漂白工艺偶尔会出现漂白效率不理想、组织结构退化和抗原免疫原性丧失等问题。为了克服这些障碍,我们采用了一种改良的光化学漂白方法,即在使用过氧化氢的同时使用强 LED 光照射。在乳腺组织和其他组织切片上使用不同的抗体进行重复染色/漂白。比较了传统漂白和改良技术后的残留信号,并评估了组织完整性和抗原免疫原性。改良技术能有效消除前几轮染色产生的荧光信号,并在多轮染色和成像中产生一致的结果。采用改进的方法,光化学处理不会破坏组织亚细胞内容物,组织抗原性在整个 mIF 过程中得到了很好的保存。在 8 轮 mIF 过程中,整体处理时间从 36 小时缩短到 30 小时。而采用传统方法,8 轮处理后组织质量会严重下降。新技术缩短了周转时间,在 mIF 过程中可靠地去除荧光团,并很好地保持了组织的完整性,有助于研究多种生物标记物在相关组织中的共定位。

Expression and Clinical Significance of Nuclear Phosphoglucomutase-1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma. 核磷葡聚糖酶-1 在肝细胞癌中的表达和临床意义
IF 1.3 4区 医学 Q3 ANATOMY & MORPHOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-11-01 Epub Date: 2024-09-20 DOI: 10.1097/PAI.0000000000001225

This study aimed to evaluate the predictive values of phosphoglucomutase-1 (PGM1) expression for prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). PGM1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry in tissue microarrays. The relationship of PGM1 expression level with pathologic parameters and prognosis values was respectively analyzed by χ 2 test and Cox regression. The accuracy of independent risk factors in predicting prognosis was calculated by receiver operating characteristic curve. HCC patient-derived xenograft models were performed to evaluate the nuclear PGM1 antitumor effect. The results showed that PGM1 expression was low in HCC tissues. Nuclear PGM1 was an independent prognostic factor for overall survival and time to recurrence. Cox regression showed that nuclear PGM1, serum α-fetoprotein, liver cirrhosis, and TNM staging stage were independent risk predictors for HCC. Receiver operating characteristic curve demonstrated that combination of independent predictors had better prognostic value than TNM staging alone. Moreover, patient-derived xenograft models showed antitumor effect of nuclear PGM1. We found that low expression of nuclear PGM1 was detected in HCC tissues and associated with poor prognostic. Nuclear PGM1 was an independent prognostic factor in patients with HCC. Furthermore, nuclear PGM1 combining other independent risk factors showed a better prognostic value. Nuclear PGM1 was a useful prognostic biomarker for patients with HCC.

本研究旨在评估磷酸葡萄糖转氨酶-1(PGM1)表达对肝细胞癌(HCC)患者预后的预测价值。通过组织芯片中的免疫组织化学方法评估了 PGM1 的表达。通过χ2检验和Cox回归分别分析了PGM1表达水平与病理参数和预后值的关系。用接收者操作特征曲线计算了独立危险因素预测预后的准确性。对HCC患者来源的异种移植模型进行了核PGM1抗肿瘤作用的评估。结果显示,PGM1 在 HCC 组织中表达量较低。核 PGM1 是总生存期和复发时间的独立预后因素。Cox回归显示,核PGM1、血清α-胎儿蛋白、肝硬化和TNM分期是HCC的独立风险预测因子。接收者操作特征曲线显示,与单独的TNM分期相比,将独立的预测因子结合在一起具有更好的预后价值。此外,患者来源的异种移植模型显示了核 PGM1 的抗肿瘤作用。我们发现,核 PGM1 在 HCC 组织中的低表达与预后不良有关。核 PGM1 是 HCC 患者的一个独立预后因素。此外,核 PGM1 与其他独立危险因素相结合显示出更好的预后价值。核PGM1是一种对HCC患者有用的预后生物标志物。

Accurate assessment of HER2 expression levels is paramount for determining eligibility for targeted therapies. HER2 immunohistochemistry provides a semiquantitative measurement of HER2 protein overexpression. Historically, little focus has been on the lower end of the HER2 expression range. The advent of novel therapeutic molecules that require fewer membrane epitopes to be effective has prompted a reevaluation of the current immunohistochemistry testing protocols, with special emphasis on the detection limit. Here, we have used Boston Cell Standards technology to determine the sensitivity of 2 commercially available HER2 immunohistochemistry assays, including a lower limit of detection.

准确评估 HER2 表达水平对于确定是否有资格接受靶向治疗至关重要。HER2 免疫组化可对 HER2 蛋白过表达进行半定量测量。一直以来,人们很少关注 HER2 表达范围的低端。新型治疗分子的出现减少了对膜表位的需求,促使人们重新评估当前的免疫组化检测方案,并特别强调检测限。在此,我们利用波士顿细胞标准技术确定了两种市售 HER2 免疫组织化学检测方法的灵敏度,包括检测下限。

BRCA1/2 are tumor suppressor genes which regulate the DNA repair mechanism. Mutations in BRCA1/2 may increase the risk of breast cancer in patients. In the present study frequency of BRCA1/2 mutations in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients was assessed and correlated with molecular subtypes of TNBC. Blood samples from 65 confirmed cases of TNBC were collected. DNA was isolated from whole blood and libraries were prepared using a BRCA1/2 custom panel. Sequencing was done on Ion torrent S5 sequencer and ion reporter was used for data analysis. Further molecular subtyping of mutation positive TNBC cases was done using immunohistochemistry markers CK5/6; CK4/14; Vimentin and E-Cadherin and androgen receptor (AR) using tissue microarray. Twenty five of 65 patients had heterozygous pathogenic mutations, alterations with conflicting interpretation of pathogenicity, variants of uncertain significance and variants of unknown significance. Nine patients had pathogenic mutation in BRCA 1 gene only and 2 patients had pathogenic mutations in BRCA2 gene. Two patients were transheterozygous for BRCA mutations, that is, had pathogenic mutations in both BRCA1/2 genes simultaneously and 5 were compound heterozygous (involving BRCA2 gene in all the cases). Prevalent subtypes among BRCA positive cases were unclassified subtype (n=4, 33%), Basal like (n=5, 41%), and mesenchymal subtype (n=3, 25%). None of the LAR subtype showed BRCA1/2 mutations. The present study observed that the BRCA1 mutation is more frequent than BRCA2 mutation in TNBC. BRCA1/2 mutations do not correspond to BRCAness or basal phenotype. Considering high incidence of breast cancer and lack of correlation of basal morphology with BRCA1/2 mutation, the molecular methods should be used for screening for BRCA1/2 mutations. This will not only help in familial screening but also in deciding targeted therapy with PARP (poly-ADP ribose polymerase) inhibitors.

BRCA1/2 是调节 DNA 修复机制的肿瘤抑制基因。BRCA1/2 基因突变可能会增加患者罹患乳腺癌的风险。本研究评估了三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)患者中 BRCA1/2 基因突变的频率,并将其与 TNBC 的分子亚型相关联。研究收集了 65 例 TNBC 确诊病例的血液样本。从全血中分离出 DNA,并使用 BRCA1/2 定制面板制备文库。测序在 Ion torrent S5 测序仪上进行,数据分析使用离子报告器。利用免疫组化标记物CK5/6、CK4/14、波形蛋白和E-Cadherin以及组织芯片中的雄激素受体(AR)对突变阳性的TNBC病例进行了进一步的分子亚型鉴定。65 例患者中有 25 例存在杂合致病突变、致病性解释不一致的变异、意义不确定的变异和意义不明的变异。9 名患者仅有 BRCA 1 基因的致病突变,2 名患者有 BRCA2 基因的致病突变。两名患者是 BRCA 基因突变的跨杂合型,即 BRCA1/2 基因同时发生致病性突变,5 名患者是复合杂合型(所有病例都涉及 BRCA2 基因)。BRCA 阳性病例的常见亚型为未分类亚型(4 例,33%)、基底样亚型(5 例,41%)和间质亚型(3 例,25%)。LAR亚型均未发现BRCA1/2基因突变。本研究发现,在 TNBC 中,BRCA1 突变比 BRCA2 突变更常见。BRCA1/2突变与BRCAness或基础表型并不对应。考虑到乳腺癌的高发病率以及基底形态与 BRCA1/2 基因突变缺乏相关性,应采用分子方法筛查 BRCA1/2 基因突变。这不仅有助于家族性筛查,还有助于决定使用 PARP(聚-ADP 核糖聚合酶)抑制剂进行靶向治疗。

For patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), treatment with pembrolizumab is dependent on the accurate determination of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression using immunohistochemistry (IHC). This study evaluated the interobserver concordance in assessing PD-L1 expression on TNBC samples using the commercial 22C3 IHC assay and an in-house assay based on the E1L3N antibody. Concordance between the 22C3 and the E1L3N IHC assays was evaluated on TNBC samples read by a commercial laboratory and a Brigham and Women's Hospital breast pathologist (BWH reader). Each slide was given a PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS) and was considered PD-L1 positive or negative based on the CPS cutoff of 10. Interobserver concordance for the assays was also evaluated on a subset of samples between 2 and 3 independent readers. On 71 samples, 2 independent readers (1 BWH reader and commercial laboratory) using E1L3N and 22C3, respectively, reached agreement on PD-L1 status (positive/negative) on 64 samples (90.1%). Using 22C3, 2 independent readers reached agreement on PD-L1 status on 30 of 36 samples (83.3%), and 3 independent readers reached agreement on 16 of 27 samples (59.3%). Using E1L3N, 2 BWH readers reached agreement on PD-L1 status on 18 of 27 samples (66.7%). Three BWH readers reached an agreement on 2 of 12 of the most challenging samples (16.7%). In conclusion, concordance between E1L3N and 22C3 testing using CPS for PD-L1 in metastatic TNBC was >90%. However, certain cases were challenging to agree upon using current threshold criteria, highlighting the need for more standardized evidence-based methods to assess PD-L1 expression.

对于转移性三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)患者,使用 pembrolizumab 治疗取决于使用免疫组织化学(IHC)准确测定程序性死亡配体 1(PD-L1)的表达。本研究评估了使用商业 22C3 IHC 检测法和基于 E1L3N 抗体的内部检测法评估 TNBC 样本中 PD-L1 表达的观察者间一致性。由一家商业实验室和布莱根妇女医院乳腺病理学家(BWH 阅读器)对 TNBC 样本进行阅读,评估 22C3 和 E1L3N IHC 检测的一致性。每张切片都有一个 PD-L1 综合阳性评分 (CPS),根据 CPS 临界值 10 将其视为 PD-L1 阳性或阴性。此外,还对 2 至 3 位独立读片员对部分样本的检测结果进行了观察者间一致性评估。在 71 份样本中,2 位独立阅读者(1 位 BWH 阅读者和 1 位商业实验室阅读者)分别使用 E1L3N 和 22C3 对 64 份样本(90.1%)的 PD-L1 状态(阳性/阴性)达成一致。使用 22C3,2 位独立读数员对 36 个样本中的 30 个样本(83.3%)的 PD-L1 状态达成一致,3 位独立读数员对 27 个样本中的 16 个样本(59.3%)的 PD-L1 状态达成一致。使用 E1L3N,2 位 BWH 读数员对 27 个样本中的 18 个样本(66.7%)的 PD-L1 状态达成了一致。在 12 个最具挑战性的样本中,有 2 个样本(16.7%)与 3 位 BWH 阅读器达成了一致。总之,在转移性 TNBC 中使用 CPS 检测 PD-L1 时,E1L3N 和 22C3 检测的一致性大于 90%。然而,某些病例使用目前的阈值标准很难达成一致,这突出表明需要更标准化的循证方法来评估PD-L1的表达。

Cervical cancer remains one of the leading causes of death from malignant diseases in women worldwide. Primary and secondary prevention have led to better outcomes in developed countries, whereas in developing countries, cervical cancer continues to be responsible for an unjustifiably high number of fatalities. The discovery of new tumor biomarkers can lead to earlier diagnosis, better therapeutic decisions, and improved treatment methods. IMP3 is a protein responsible for invasiveness and other aggressive characteristics of tumor processes. Its highly specific expression has been proven in various malignant processes. The level of IMP3 expression in cervical cancer cells could be used as a prognostic factor for a worse disease course. In this study, IMP3 expression was examined in 80 patients who underwent surgery for squamous cell cervical cancer in the first FIGO stage of the disease, and its association with disease-free period and overall survival was investigated. Data analysis did not show a statistically significant association between IMP3 expression and the mentioned primary outcomes, despite its association with clinical-pathological indicators of advanced disease. In conclusion, the analysis of IMP3 protein expression in patients with early-stage cervical cancer is of limited utility.

宫颈癌仍然是全世界妇女死于恶性疾病的主要原因之一。在发达国家,初级预防和二级预防已经取得了较好的效果,而在发展中国家,宫颈癌仍然是造成大量死亡的罪魁祸首。发现新的肿瘤生物标志物可以使诊断更早、做出更好的治疗决定和改进治疗方法。IMP3 是一种蛋白质,负责肿瘤过程的侵袭性和其他侵袭性特征。其高度特异性表达已在各种恶性过程中得到证实。宫颈癌细胞中 IMP3 的表达水平可作为疾病恶化的预后因素。在这项研究中,我们检测了 80 例 FIGO 第一期鳞状细胞宫颈癌手术患者的 IMP3 表达情况,并研究了其与无病生存期和总生存期的关系。尽管 IMP3 表达与晚期疾病的临床病理指标有关,但数据分析并未显示 IMP3 表达与上述主要结果之间存在统计学意义上的显著关联。总之,对早期宫颈癌患者 IMP3 蛋白表达的分析作用有限。

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, highly aggressive skin cancer of neuroendocrine origin that is typically associated with either the presence of Merkel cell polyomavirus or chronic exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. We report a case of relapsed MCC that presented with new symptoms of fatigue, back pain, and myeloid left shift identified during scheduled follow-up. The patient was found to have circulating neoplastic cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow metastasis. Immunohistochemistry for synaptophysin, CD56, INSM-1, CK20, CD117 were positive, whereas CD34, TdT, Chromogranin, CD10, myeloperoxidase, CD3 and CD19 were negative. Flow cytometry of the peripheral blood confirmed the presence of an abnormal nonhematopoietic cell population expressing CD56 positivity. A next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel revealed the presence of variants in RB1, TP53, and other genes, some of which have not been previously described in MCC. This rare presentation highlights the challenges in the diagnosis and management of MCC.

梅克尔细胞癌(MCC)是一种罕见、侵袭性极强的神经内分泌源性皮肤癌,通常与梅克尔细胞多瘤病毒或长期暴露于紫外线(UV)有关。我们报告了一例复发的 MCC 病例,患者在预定的随访期间出现了疲劳、背痛和骨髓左移等新症状。患者的外周血中发现有循环肿瘤细胞和骨髓转移灶。免疫组化检查发现突触素、CD56、INSM-1、CK20、CD117呈阳性,而CD34、TdT、Chromogranin、CD10、髓过氧化物酶、CD3和CD19呈阴性。外周血流式细胞术证实存在异常的非造血细胞群,表达 CD56 阳性。下一代测序(NGS)面板显示存在RB1、TP53和其他基因的变异,其中一些变异以前从未在MCC中出现过。这一罕见的病例凸显了 MCC 诊断和管理所面临的挑战。
