IHC
ck7, ck20, ae1/ae3, CDX2
ER, PR
AFP, CD30, EMA
WT1, calretinin, inhibin, ck5/6
Above IHC stains should tell the tumor is primary , secondary tumors or mesohtelioma; If it is an ovarian primary tumor the IHC stains can tell it is an epithelial tumor, sex cord-stromal tumor, or germ cell tumor.
If IHC stains confirm it is ovarian epithelial malignancy. Differential dx: include serous and clear cell tumor.
Serous: p53,WT1, p16 are strongly positive.CCC can be positive for these markers, but they are weak and focal in most cases. The chance of endometrial tumor is low based on the photos.

favor 原发性上皮性恶性性肿瘤,不能分类: consider high grade serous or transtional (malignant Brenner tumor). Main goal will be rule out metastasis (clinical more effective). Less likely to be sex cord stromal or malignant germ cell tumor. Good to see Dr. Bing Yang's comments. Great lecture last Saturday.

Thank you for sharing this great case with us!
A recent study just published related to this case. I post the abstract for your reference.

A Useful Antibody Panel for Differential Diagnosis Between Peritoneal Mesothelioma and Ovarian Serous Carcinoma in Japanese Cases Yukio Takeshima A1, Vishwa J. Amatya A1, Kei Kushitani A1, Kouki Inai A1 A1 Department of Pathology, Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Hiroshima University, Hiroshima, Japan Abstract: Malignant mesothelioma is increasing in incidence worldwide, including in Japan. However, the accurate pathologic diagnosis of pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma (PM) is sometimes difficult if adequate histologic and immunohistochemical analyses are not undertaken. The aim of this study was to identify a useful antibody panel for distinguishing PM from ovarian serous papillary adenocarcinoma (SC). We obtained 29 PMs (23 epithelioid mesotheliomas and 6 biphasic mesotheliomas) and 20 SCs from our surgical pathology files. Immunohistochemical analysis was undertaken using 13 commercially available antibodies. No significant sex differences in antigen expression among the 29 PMs were observed. The results identified calretinin and thrombomodulin as positive markers and Ber-EP4, MOC-31, CA19-9, and estrogen receptor as negative markers with relatively high sensitivity and specificity for the differential diagnosis of PM and SC. The combination of these positive and negative markers may contribute to accurate diagnosis and adequate therapy for PM and ovarian SC. |
