Utility of BAP1, p16, and Methylthio-Adenosine Phosphorylase Immunohistochemistry in Cytological and Histological Samples of Pleural Mesotheliomas
Conclusions: Concordant BAP1, MTAP, and p16 expression is found between cytological and corresponding histological samples, indicating that a reliable diagnosis of MPM can be made on cytology only. Of the three markers, BAP1 and MTAP are most reliable in distinguishing malignant from reactive mesothelial proliferations. (Source: Acta Cytologica)

Number Needed to Diagnose in Malignant Ascites: Effects of Volume, Repeating Collection, and Primary Malignancy on Diagnostic Performance in Peritoneal Fluid Cytology
Conclusions: Omission of any fluid from laboratory submission is strongly discouraged. As a simple rule, three repeats are necessary for excluding malignant ascites.Acta Cytologica (Source: Acta Cytologica)

Number needed to diagnose in malignant ascites – effects of volume, repeating collection, and primary malignancy on diagnostic performance in peritoneal fluid cytology
This study addresses adequacy and number needed to diagnose by comparing diagnostic agreement to volumes in single specimens, total volumes collected daily, and within admissions. The diagnostic yield of repeating collection within a single day, admission, and throughout admissions of a patient ’s lifetime was also investigated.
Methods
Peritoneal fluid cytology specimens over a 27-year period were retrieved, and matched by collection date, admission number and patient number. Case notes were reviewed to establish all cases of malignant ascites.
Results
In total, 19,392 specimens from 14,327 admissions and 11,089 pati...
