Clinicopathologic Characteristics and Prognostic Value of Rhabdoid Features in Pancreatic Undifferentiated Carcinoma
Undifferentiated carcinoma (UC) is a rare, highly aggressive subtype of pancreatic cancer; UC with rhabdoid features (UCRF) is particularly associated with poor prognosis. This study aimed to compare clinicopathologic characteristics and...

Awareness of Partial Loss is Essential in Interpreting Merlin Immunohistochemistry When Diagnosing Pleural Mesothelioma
Ancillary assays, including BAP1 (BRCA‐1‐associated protein 1), MTAP (methylthioadenosine phosphorylase), and Merlin immunohistochemistry (IHC), are effective in discriminating pleural mesothelioma (PM) from reactive mesothelial prolifer...

Histopathologic Assessment of Pulmonary Capillaritis Using Combined Immunohistochemical and Special Stains: An Autopsy Case Double‐Positive for MPO‐ANCA and Anti‐GBM Antibodies
Anti‐glomerular basement membrane (anti‐GBM) disease may coexist with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), a clinicopathologic entity termed double‐positive disease, in which diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) is common but histo...

Clinicopathological Significance of Extra‐Alveolar Invasion in Lung Adenocarcinomas Treated With Sublobar Resection
Lung adenocarcinoma exhibits diverse pathological features, some of which for example, histological grading and tumor spread through air spaces (STAS), can be used for prognosis. Extra‐alveolar invasion (EX) is a unique pathological fact...

Pathological Evolution of Fibrosis in IgG4‐Related Ophthalmic Disease: A Retrospective Study of 100 Cases
IgG4‐related ophthalmic disease (IgG4‐ROD) is a common manifestation of IgG4‐related disease, but its clinicopathologic features and the mechanisms underlying fibrosis remain incompletely understood. We retrospectively analyzed 100 cases...

Why Most Cancer Cells Cannot Form Tumors: Replicative Lifespan, Damage Partitioning and Stem Cell Induction
Tumors grow because the total number of cancer cells increases without limit. The prevailing explanation is that each proliferating cancer cell has acquired unlimited replicative capacity, yet this does not explain why the overwhelming m...

Pleural Mesothelioma With Unusual Squamous Differentiation: A Clinicopathological Case Report With Molecular Insights From Whole‐Exome Sequencing
Pleural mesothelioma is an aggressive tumor with a poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. While histological heterogeneity is common, true squamous differentiation is extremely rare and diagnostically challenging. We report an 8...

Reduced Gene Module for Spatial Transcriptomics Recapitulates Single‐Cell Molecular Classifications of Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma, IDH ‐wildtype, is the most common and malignant adult‐type diffuse glioma. It is characterized by extensive heterogeneity and poor prognosis. Recent single‐cell RNA‐sequencing studies have revealed distinct transcriptional ...
