Adenocarcinoma of the lower third of the rectum surgically treated with a <10-MM distal clearance: preliminary results in 35 N0 patients.
Salvatore Andreola,Ermanno Leo,Filiberto Belli,Giuliano Bonfanti,Grazia Sirizzotti,Paolo Greco,Francesca Valvo,Gorana Tomasic,Gian Francesco Gallino +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that a radical surgery with <10-mm DC followed by chemoradiotherapy may be adequate in N0 patients, provided that a careful pathologic examination of the surgical specimen excludes the presence of lymph node metastases and that the distal rectal and mesorectal resection margins fall in healthy tissue.

Solitary fibrous tumour of the kidney with sarcomatous overgrowth. Case report and review of the literature.
TL;DR: A novel immunohistochemical finding was diffuse and strong S‐100 protein expression by sarcomatous cells, including pleomorphic multinucleated giant cells, which should be kept in mind by pathologists to avoid confusion with other S‐ 100 protein‐positive malignant neoplasms.

Warthin Tumor-Like Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma with a Minor Dedifferentiated Component: Report of a Case with Clinicopathologic Considerations
Paolo Amico,Salvatore Lanzafame,Giovanni Li Destri,Paolo Greco,Rosario Caltabiano,Giada Maria Vecchio,Gaetano Magro +6 more
TL;DR: A rare case of Warthin tumor-like variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma with a dedifferentiated component consisting of a solid tumor area composed of neoplastic cells with a spindle to tall cell morphology associated with marked nuclear pleomorphism, atypical mitoses, and foci of necrosis is reported.
Potential pathological understaging of pT3 rectal cancer with less than 26 lymph nodes recovered: a prospective study based on a resampling of 50 rectal specimens
Paolo Greco,Salvatore Andreola,Gaetano Magro,Filiberto Belli,Giorgio Giannone,Gian Francesco Gallino,Ermanno Leo +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that most (five out of six) missed metastatic lymph nodes were detected in specimens in which a maximum number of 19 lymph nodes had been originally recovered, and strongly suggest a resampling of pT3N0 rectal specimens if less than 20 lymph nodes have been recovered.

Deciduoid-like stromal cells in a diabetic patient with bilateral gynecomastia: a potential diagnostic pitfall.
TL;DR: The first case of gynecomastia with extensive deciduoid-like stromal changes in a patient affected by long-standing insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is reported, thought to represent a morphological variant of ESCs, typically occurring in diabetic mastopathy.
