Application of LEF-1 immunohistochemical staining in the diagnosis of solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas
Introduction
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a tumor of young females with gain-of-function mutation in catenin beta 1 gene involved in Wnt signal transduction pathway. Beta-catenin immunohistochemistry (IHC) is used to diagnose SPN. Lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 (LEF-1) has been recognized in the transactivation of Wnt pathway. We aim to study LEF-1 IHC in SPN and other pancreatic tumors and compare it with beta-catenin IHC.
Methods
We retrieved cases of SPN, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PanNET), serous cystadenoma (SCA), ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) from 2011 to 2023. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded blocks with adequate tumor were cut and stained with beta-catenin (B-Catenin-1 clone) and LEF-1 (EP310 clone) IHC. Cases were reviewed by two pathologists independently. Nuclear staining with LEF-1 and beta-catenin was considered as positive.
Results
Our cohort consisted of 111 cases [SPN = 59 (42 resections, 11 FNA, 6 biopsies), PDAC = 24, PanNET = 22, SCA = 5, ACC = 1]. For SPN cases male to female ratio was1:8. Age ranged from 9 to 81 years (average: 32 years). Pancreatic tail was the most common location (47 %) followed by head (28 %), body (19 %) and neck (6 %). Tumor size ranged from 1.0 to 12.2 cm (average: 5 cm). Among the SPN cases 57/59 demonstrated strong nuclear LEF-1 staining. 2/49 cases were negative for LEF-1 (both pathologist in agreement). All SPN tumors demonstrated nuclear staining with beta-catenin. Among the non-SPN tumors, beta-catenin showed nuclear staining in 2/52 cases (2 PDAC). The remaining 50 cases were negative for nuclear beta-catenin and demonstrated variable staining pattern with interpretation variability between the two pathologists. The sensitivity and specificity for LEF-1 were 97 % and 100 %, respectively, while for beta-catenin, they were 100 % and 96 % respectively.
Conclusion
Crisp nuclear staining of LEF-1 without background staining makes diagnostic interpretation relatively easy and accurate compared to beta-catenin IHC. This is further helpful for small biopsy samples to help differentiate SPN from mimickers such as PanNET. None of the non-SPN cases displayed nuclear LEF-1 rendering it a valuable adjunct to beta-catenin in the diagnostic evaluation of SPN.
期刊介绍:
Pathology, Research and Practice provides accessible coverage of the most recent developments across the entire field of pathology: Reviews focus on recent progress in pathology, while Comments look at interesting current problems and at hypotheses for future developments in pathology. Original Papers present novel findings on all aspects of general, anatomic and molecular pathology. Rapid Communications inform readers on preliminary findings that may be relevant for further studies and need to be communicated quickly. Teaching Cases look at new aspects or special diagnostic problems of diseases and at case reports relevant for the pathologist''s practice.
