Abstract

CONTEXT.—

The need for appropriate specimen use for ancillary testing has become more commonplace in the practice of pathology. This, coupled with improvements in technology, often provides less invasive methods of testing, but presents new challenges to appropriate specimen collection and handling of these small specimens, including thoracic small biopsy and cytology samples.

OBJECTIVE.—

To develop a clinical practice guideline including recommendations on how to obtain, handle, and process thoracic small biopsy and cytology tissue specimens for diagnostic testing and ancillary studies.

METHODS.—

The College of American Pathologists convened an expert panel to perform a systematic review of the literature and develop recommendations. Core needle biopsy, touch preparation, fine-needle aspiration, and effusion specimens with thoracic diseases including malignancy, granulomatous process/sarcoidosis, and infection (eg, tuberculosis) were deemed within scope. Ancillary studies included immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization, mutational analysis, flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and microbiologic studies routinely performed in the clinical pathology laboratory. The use of rapid on-site evaluation was also covered.

RESULTS.—

Sixteen guideline statements were developed to assist clinicians and pathologists in collecting and processing thoracic small biopsy and cytology tissue samples.

CONCLUSIONS.—

Based on the systematic review and expert panel consensus, thoracic small specimens can be handled and processed to perform downstream testing (eg, molecular markers, immunohistochemical biomarkers), core needle and fine-needle techniques can provide appropriate cytologic and histologic specimens for ancillary studies, and rapid on-site cytologic evaluation remains helpful in appropriate triage, handling, and processing of specimens.

Evaluation of epidermal growth factor receptor mutations and thyroid transcription factor-1 status in Turkish non-small cell lung carcinoma patients: A study of 600 cases from a single center. TURK GOGUS KALP DAMAR CERRAHISI DERGISI-TURKISH JOURNAL OF THORACIC AND CARDIOVASCULAR SURGERY 2020;28:143-150. [PMID: 32175155 DOI: 10.5606/tgkdc.dergisi.2020.18196] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2019] [Accepted: 09/17/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]

Abstract

Background

This study aims to investigate the frequency, distribution, and morphological/immunohistochemical features of epidermal growth factor receptor mutations and to examine the possible relationship between the material type and technical success of mutation analysis in Turkish population with non-small cell lung cancer.

Methods

Between September 2012 and December 2015, a total of 499 consecutive, treatment-naïve patients (437 males, 163 females; mean age 61 years; range, 30 to 84 years) with primary or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer who underwent epidermal growth factor receptor mutation testing using Sanger sequencing method were retrospectively analyzed. Archival records and hematoxylin-eosine and immunohistochemically stained sections were re-examined. The thyroid transcription factor-1 and napsin A immunohistochemical stains were performed on tissue array blocks.

Results

Seventy-five mutations were detected in 70 patients (14%). The success rate of testing and intact deoxyribonucleic acid fragment length were significantly higher in the cytological material, compared to tissue specimens (p<0.001). The mutation rate in adenocarcinomas was 33.9% for women and 9.4% for men. The most common mutation was L746-E750del in exon 19 (29.3%), followed by the L858R mutation in exon 21 (28%). The mutation rate was the highest in micropapillary (40%) and lowest in solid (5.4%) adenocarcinomas. All epidermal growth factor receptor mutations, except for one, were positive for the thyroid transcription factor-1. The single nucleotide polymorphism Q787Q in exon 20 was observed in 79.6% of patients.

Conclusion

The frequency and distribution of epidermal growth factor receptor mutations in the Turkish patients with non-small cell lung cancer are similar to the European populations. These results also demonstrate that cytological materials are highly reliable for epidermal growth factor receptor mutation testing, and the probability of detection of wild-type epidermal growth factor receptor is low in cases of thyroid transcription factor-1 negativity.
