Immunohistochemical analysis of retroperitoneal Müllerian cyst.

Abstract:

:Retroperitoneal cysts are uncommon diseases, and benign nonneoplastic Müllerian cysts are extremely rare among the known cases. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman with a retroperitoneal Müllerian cyst with the tubal type of epithelium. The patient presented with a large (20 cm in diameter), palpable abdominal mass. This multilocular cystic mass was resected from the retroperitoneum between the descending colon and the left renal fascia. Histologically, it was lined by monolayered low-cuboidal to columnar cells without atypia that resembled tubal epithelium, including cilia. Loose fibrous tissue and incomplete smooth muscle bundles were identified beneath the epithelium of the lining. Immunohistochemical tests showed that the lining cells were strongly positive for cytokeratins (CKs) (polyclonal, 7, 18, CAM 5.2, AE1/AE3), epithelial membrane antigen, cancer antigen 125, progesterone receptor, and estrogen receptor. The lining cells were also occasionally weakly positive for CK5/6. They tested negative for CK20, carcinoembryonic antigen, calretinin, and CD 10.

  • MUC2 gene expression is found in noninvasive tumors but not in invasive tumors of the pancreas and liver: its close relationship with prognosis of the patients.

    abstract::We have previously reported that MUC2 apomucin was highly expressed in noninvasive tumors of the pancreas (intraductal papillary tumor [IdPT]) and liver (bile duct cystadenocarcinoma [BdCC]), which show more favorable outcomes than invasive carcinomas. In contrast, MUC2 was rarely expressed in invasive carcinomas of t...
