免疫组化结果
原单位免疫组化Vim为阴性,没有采图
今天做了inhibin和Hepatocyte,均阴性
总结免疫组化结果
免疫组化染色WT1管状结构阳性
CD56,间质及管状结构均阳性
PCK,CD99,EMA染色有异质性,部分结构阳性,Glypican-3与前三者的表达组织似乎有相反
CK8/18阳性,Ki67增殖活性比较高
CK7表达模式与EMA相似
AFP,CDX2,Calretinin,Inhibin,Hepatocyte,ER,Syn,CD10,TTF1,CgA,CD30,OCT3/4,CK20均阴性
I never use GPC stain and know nothing about it. Check internet to learn:
Glypican 3 (GPC3) is found in fetal tissues, but expression in adults is limited [5]. Experimental evidence using cell cultures suggests that silencing occurs in tumors derived from adult tissues which may normally express GPC3 (ovary, breast, lung, and mesothelium), and has therefore been considered to function as a tumor suppressor in these tissues although this notion is controversial [6-9]. In tissues with no adult expression, GPC3 may act as an oncofetal protein, and tumors derived from these tissues have increased levels of GPC3 mRNA (hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatoblastoma, Wilms tumor, neuroblastoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma), with protein studies limited to the first three [7,10-13]. The role of glypicans in malignant transformation and tumor progression has been further elucidated by genetic studies involving Drosophila and mice, which have shown that the activity of Wnts, Hedgehogs, and bone morphogenetic proteins are modulated by glypicans [1-4,14]. GPC3 in particular has been shown to increase Wnt signaling in hepatocellular carcinoma via interaction between Wnt and GPC3 core protein [4].

EMA seems negative and Pan-CK patch positive
Vimetinin neg
WT1, CD56 strongly and diffusely positive
CD99 focally positive.
Importance is to distinguish it is epithelial tumor or sex cord stromal tumor or others (such as carcinoid).
Suggest to do
1. inhibin stain. Sertoli cell tumor: about 40-50% of the cases, calretinin can be negative, but almost all of them are inhibin positive. If both inhibin and calretinin are negative, the chance of sex cord stromal tumors will be very low.
2. chromogranin and synaptophysin: to r/o or rule in carcinoid
3. Add cam5.2 to rule out epithelial tumor
It is interesting case. Thank for sharing. Wish we can see your follow-up study results

陶氏腔
what is this
陶氏腔属于盆腔,是盆腔的最低处。一般有盆腔炎会出现陶氏腔积液。陶氏腔积液在又称为盆腔积液,分为生理性和病理性,生理性的盆腔积液多发生在排卵后或早孕期,多可自然消失,不必进行治疗。但大多数盆腔积液是由于炎症引起,即由慢性盆腔炎症渗出所致。也有少数因宫外孕破裂、黄体破裂、盆腔脓肿、巧克力囊肿、卵巢癌引起。因急慢性盆腔炎引起者,多伴有下腹痛(双侧或单侧),腰骶部疼痛,有人流或药流病史等。
