“…In terms of potential endometrial entities, carcinosarcomas (19,20) and the stroma and squamous morular metaplasia of atypical polypoid adenomyomas (21,22) have been reported as SATB2 positive. In a report on carcinosarcomas, SATB2 highlighted osteosarcomatous differentiation, but was not specific for this finding, as 60% of gynecologic tract carcinosarcomas without heterologous elements also showed SATB2 expression, primarily in areas of undifferentiated sarcoma (19).…”

Poorly differentiated malignant neoplasms involving the gynecologic tract routinely include a poorly differentiated endometrial carcinoma (EC) in the differential diagnosis. Some nuclear lineage/site-specific immunohistochemical markers are utilized in this diagnostic setting including SATB2, cyclin D1, SALL4, and BCOR, but their specificity and use in small samples are not clear across the spectrum of ECs. Cases of undifferentiated/dedifferentiated endometrial carcinomas (UEC/DDEC), clear cell carcinoma (CCC), uterine serous carcinoma (USC), FIGO grade 3 endometrial endometrioid carcinoma (EEC), and uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS) were identified and diagnoses confirmed. Whole-section immunohistochemical stains for SATB2, cyclin D1, SALL4, BCOR, and PAX8 were performed. A total of 113 cases were utilized: 15 CCC, 26 EEC, 19 UCS, 22 USC, and 31 UEC/DDEC. Cases were distributed across both low (49%) and high (51%) FIGO clinical stages. SATB2 was expressed by UCS (8/19, 42%), EEC (10/26, 38%), UEC/DDEC (11/30, 37%), and USC (6/22, 27%). Cyclin D1 was expressed by EEC (24/26, 92%), USC (17/22, 77%), UEC/DDEC (15/20 EEC component, 75%; 22/30 UEC, 73%), UCS (10/16 carcinoma, 63%; 11/19 sarcoma, 58%), and CCC (8/15, 53%). SALL4 was expressed most frequently by UEC/DDEC (12/30, 40%), but also USC (7/22, 32%), EEC (5/26, 19%), and UCS (4/16 carcinoma, 25%; 3/19 sarcoma, 16%). BCOR was expressed at low levels in 2 USC, 2 UEC/DDEC, and 2 UCS. PAX8 was generally positive but showed lower expression in UEC/DDEC (17/30, 57%) and in the sarcomatous portions of UCS (6/19, 32%). SATB2, cyclin D1, SALL4, and BCOR stain variable numbers of poorly-differentiated EC and must be carefully interpreted within morphologic and clinical context.

An Emerging Anti-p16 Antibody-BC42 Clone as an Alternative to the Current E6H4 for Use in the Female Genital Tract Pathological Diagnosis: Our Experience and a Review on p16ink4a Functional Significance, Role in Daily-Practice Diagnosis, Prognostic Potential, and Technical Pitfalls

Background: To date, useful diagnostic applications of p16 IHC have been documented in gynecological pathology both for HPV-related and non-HPV-related lesions. In the present article, we reported our experience with the novel anti-p16 INK4a antibody (clone BC42), whose expression was tested across all different gynecologic neoplasms; we also compared it to the traditional E6H4 clone. Moreover, we discussed and explored all the diagnostic applications of p16 IHC in gynecologic pathology. Methods: Consultation cases covering a 5-year period (2016–2020) regarding gynecological neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions in which immunohistochemistry for p16, clone E6H4 was originally performed, were retrospectively retrieved from the files of our institution. Immunohistochemical staining for p16ink4a (BC42) [Biocare Medical group-Paceco USA; Bioptica Milan] and p16ink4a (E6H4) [Ventana Medical Systems-Arizona USA; Roche] was performed by using the Ventana automated immunostainer (Ventana Medical Systems, Tucson, AZ, USA). The immunostaining pattern was defined as negative, focal/patchy, or diffuse. Results: A total of 196 cases, represented by 36 high-grade SIL/CIN3 of the uterine cervix, 30 cervical adenocarcinomas, 22 cervical squamous cell carcinoma, 70 endometrial carcinomas, 25 high grade serous ovarian carcinomas, 6 uterine adenomatoid tumors, and 10 uterine leiomyosarcomas were included in this study. Results showed concordant staining quality of both clones on all tested neoplastic tissues. Conclusions: The novel anti-p16 antibody (BC42 clone) appeared as an alternative to the current E6H4 for use in gynecological neoplasms, offering similar levels of positivity and equally reliable staining results.

Atypical polypoid adenomyoma (APAM) is a rare polypoid benign tumor of the uterus that causes irregular vaginal bleeding in women of reproductive age. It has the potential for malignant transformation, but it does not metastasize. APAM may coexist with endometrial hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma, usually leading to misdiagnosis. Histopathologically, it is a biphasic tumor, represented by the endometrioid glands with a complex histoarchitecture, with sometimes squamous morular metaplasia or cytologic atypia, interspersed with a fibromyomatous stroma. This tumor has a high incidence of recurrence. We present a very rare case of a 21-year-old patient, a virgin, without a significant medical history, with a bleeding mass occupying the vagina. The mass was excised using forceps, scissors, and a suture of the visible pedicle. After a four-year follow-up and no additional medical treatment, no relapse was observed. Given the risk of recurrence and progression, APAM might be treated via a hysterectomy in patients with no desire for pregnancy. Due to a lower recurrence rate, the conservative treatment of atypical polypoid adenomyoma performed via an operative hysteroscopy represents the best choice. Previously diagnosed in hysterectomy specimens, with the introduction of better-performing indirect imaging techniques, adenomyosis is a clinical entity that has the possibility of being diagnosed in the presurgical stage.
