granular cell tumors are rare neoplasms of uncertain histogenesis but with a typical histologic appearance composed of cells with characteristic granular cytoplasm. these tumors occur most often in adults as an asymptomatic solitary papule or nodule. multiple granular cell tumors are rare, especially in children and teenagers. we represent a case of multiple granular cell tumors in a 19-year-ol...

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most prevalent malignant neoplasm of the oral cavity. The conventional tumour and several histologic subtypes of SCC present morphologic features and specific behaviour when they occur in the oral mucosa. For example, basaloid SCC is an aggressive tumour and verrucous carcinoma has the lowest invasive and metastatic potential; however, the clinical and biolo...

Background & Objective: Most colorectal cancers (CRCs) arise from adenomatous polyps, and clinical management of this type of polyp is highly dependent on the reliability and validity of the pathological diagnosis. The aim of this study was to examine the interobserver agreement of five pathologists in assessing dysplasia in adenomatous polyps. Methods: I...

Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) emerges as a chronic, immune-mediated, systemic skin pathology closely linked to celiac disease (CD). Characterized by polymorphous and pruritic cutaneous manifestations, DH presents unique clinical diagnostic challenge. In this article, we seek comprehensively delineate the clinical, histologic, immunologic dimensions of DH, with particular emphasis on its etiopat...

we described a case of lymphoid follicular hyperplasia that arose from the ileum of a 52-year-old woman. her colonoscopy revealed a large mass in the cecum associated with multiple polypoid lesions in the ileum. histologic examination demonstrated severe lymphocytic infiltration and lymphoid follicles with regular germinal centers, without evidence of malignancy. a right hemicolectomy was perfo...

BACKGROUND Granular cell tumor (GCT), also known as Abrikossoff tumor, is an uncommon benign neoplasm, probably of neural origin derived from Schwann cells. It presents clinically as a solitary asymptomatic nodule and its pathogenesis has been the subject of much debate in the literature. OBJECTIVES We aimed to analyze the clinical, histologic, and immunohistochemical characteristics associat...

Autoimmune pancreatitis is a rare type of chronic pancreatitis with characteristic clinical, radiologic, and histopathologic findings. Diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis is often challenging due to its low incidence and nonspecific clinical and radiologic findings. Patients with autoimmune pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer share similar clinical presentations, including obstructive jaundice,...
