“Pen Test” confirming true psammoma body (PB) as opposed to thick colloid (or mucin). Gentle pressure on the cover slip with the tip of a pen while looking at the fragment under the scope will radially fracture a true PB (Thyroid, FNA, PTC). Same fragment, before/after the test.

Biopsies of a nasal cavity mass from 40 year old. Unusual case that was eventually diagnosed on the resection specimen. Not my area of expertise, but was sent as possible lymphoma. Differentials and how would you approach this? #pathology #ENTpath

Let’s enjoy this cutie which pops up often on RISE and board exams, but not so frequently under the microscope! Once you see it, you’ll never forget it! A beautiful case of Sex Cord Tumor with Annular Tubules (SCTAT): • Positive for Calretinin, Inhibin, and WT-1 •
