Ahead of print in AJSP! Very helpful article that provides directions as to which B cell proliferations in TFH lymphomas should be considered a part of the TFH process and which ones “bonafide” lymphomas. #hemepath #pathtwitter #lymphoma DOI: 10.1097/PAS.0000000000002340
Eosinophilic Variant of Marginal zone lymphoma, with overlapping features of AITL. Excellent post !!! Very difficult diagnosis too! @SibaElHussein
An underrecognized variant of nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) is the "eosinophil-rich variant", which is a unique subset not mentioned/emphasized by the current WHO/ICC A knowledge of this variant of NMZL can prevent it from being misdiagnosed as PTCL (particularly AITL)…
Congratulations to us ! 🙂
Congratulations to all the 2025 graduates! Your hard work, resilience, and dedication have paid off. #ClassOf2025 #GraduationDay #FuturePathologists
Got the “Speaker” badge for the first time at the annual HSCP Gallager event representing Baylor College of Medicine. Thank you Houston Society of Clinical Pathology for the opportunity to present my research on DICER1 sarcomas. @HouPathSoc @BCM_PathRes
The next time you get a pancytopenic patient with history of Anti-epileptic treatment, Call, not only the heme-onc for bone marrow failure work-up but also the rheumatologist for lupus work-up. An important case report. doi.org/10.1097/MPH.00… #hemepath #lupus
#CAP2024 @Pathologists @BCM_PathRes Always proud to represent my program at the national program! 😎
We’re so proud of our amazing trainees representing us @Pathologists at #CAP24
TFH lymphoma enthusiasts; Dense paper but a must read for all hemepath folk. Never thought I would write the future directions section for a lymphoma review paper in a such a renowned journal. All your comments and feedback are welcome. #hemepath #hematopathology #lymphoma
If I had a nickel for every time a woman named Rosalind got neither the credit nor a Nobel Prize for her work, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Congratulations to our 2024 medicine laureate Victor Ambros ✨ This morning he celebrated the news of his prize with his colleague and wife Rosalind Lee, who was also the first author on the 1993 'Cell' paper cited by the Nobel Committee. #NobelPrize
⬅️Osteoblasts (benign) vs ➡️myeloid blasts (leukemia) Same environment 🦴 different genes 🧬 The osteoblasts seem much more friendly and social!
It’s great when your own institute appreciates your research and provides you with a platform to display it. @BCM_PathRes @bcmhouston keeps showing us it keeps education above everything else!!! Pathology Research Symposium.
An article in Annals of Diagnostic Pathology journal on Monomorphic Epitheliotropic intestinal T cell lymphoma (MEITL) with an unusual immunophenotype and discussion of differential diagnosis. Thank you @ljmedeirosMD at MD Anderson for this opportunity. doi.org/10.1016/j.annd…
🩸Indolent T lymphoblastic proliferation (IT-LBP) is an extra-thymic non-clonal expansion of T-lymphoblasts 🩸It occurrs alone or in association with other disorders, including Castleman disease (as illustrated in below Figures 1-3) and others (myasthenia gravis, hepatocellular…
Out today 🚨all you need to know about B cell lymphoma Dx in one beautiful paper @ljmedeirosMD @YasoNatkunam #hemepath @ModernPathology #lymsm modernpathology.org/article/S0893-…
#hemepath. Key features of this disease - follicular hyperplasia, eosinophilia, polykaryocytes. Also, I forgot I knew this - increased IgG4! Kimura disease
The thing with molecular pathology is that, it should be updated timely and kudos to the authors who have done it, along with the updated WHO classifications. Very helpful to both path and medicine Residents and Fellows. Checking my book fund now!!!
Just got copies of Diagnostic Pathology Molecular Oncology. Hot off the presses. #nerd
Everyone is talking about MRD at #ASH23 You need to make sure your sample is not hemodiluted We now have a way of measuring hemodilution using flow cytometry, publication from @iStopMM here: nature.com/articles/s4140… Calculator: istopmm.com/bmqi/ @jthorir @BloodCancerJnl
This is very helpful; at the same very scary !!! #SH23
From Dr. Czader’s summary talk at #SH23 Workshop. Beware of the CD3 clone you’re using - *can* be positive in NK cells! #hemepath
Honestly heard of this for the first time! Very difficult diagnosis! No treatment implications yet I hope !!!
The life of a hematopathologist is full of uncertainty….. 🤷🏻♀️ So you know all there is to know about CCUS …. But did you know about TCUS?? #SH23 #hemepath #lymsm
