Reproducibility of the & #8220;International academy of cytology yokohama system for reporting breast cytology & #8221; & #8211; A retrospective analysis of 70 cases
Conclusions: Inter-observer agreement of three (70.48%) cytopathologists was substantial. Agreement can be improved by combining certain categories, especially “Suspicious” and “Malignant”. Technical quality limitation plays a significant role in a proportion of cases, mainly the “Atypical” and “Suspicious of malignancy” categories. Application of the IAC YSRB system in day-to-day practice will increase the inter-observer agreement. (Source: Journal of Cytology)

Association of peritoneal cytology with other prognostic factors in endometrial cancer
Conclusion: Malignant peritoneal cytology is associated with other negative prognostic factors in endometrial cancer (histological grade, FIGO stage, and non-endometrioid histological subtypes). Based on these findings, we encourage sampling of peritoneal washing in all EC patients and consider it mandatory in patients with non-endometrioid subtype, high-grade histology, and in advanced FIGO stage.

Liquid-Based cytology in the detection of premalignant lesions in patients with & #8220;atypia in squamous cells & #8221; in conventional cytology
Discussion: Although LBC decreases abnormal cytology and increases the detection of HSIL, which improves diagnostic accuracy; sensitivity and predictive values for detecting HSIL are not significantly different between CPS and LBC. (Source: Journal of Cytology)

The prevalence of cervical HPV infection and genotype distribution in 856,535 chinese women with normal and abnormal cervical lesions: A systemic review
Yan-Qin Yu, Jin-Qi Hao, Maria J G Mendez, S Bangura Mohamed, Shi-Lan Fu, Fang-Hui Zhao, You-Lin QiaoJournal of Cytology 2022 39(4):137-147
Cervical cancer is the commonest cancer affecting women worldwide. During the last decades, the incidence and mortality rates of cervical cancer have increased in China. This research aims to assess the overall and genotype-specific prevalence of the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection among Chinese women with normal cervix, considering age, and geographic location. We selected studies about HPV prevalence in women from Chinese in Mainland China with normal cervix and abnormal cervica...

Diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma with clear cell features in pleural effusion: Cytomorphologic features, immunocytochemical studies, and differential diagnosis
Senay Erdogan-Durmus, Ozden Yulek, Zeynep Betul ErdemJournal of Cytology 2022 39(3):134-136
Clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCA) of the lungs is no longer referred to as a subtype in recent classifications of lung adenocarcinoma. Like signet ring features, clear cell features are regarded as cytological features rather than histological subtypes. Additionally, in serous fluids, adenocarcinoma metastasis with clear cell features is a diagnostic challenging entity due to other tumors that come to mind first during the differential diagnosis. Here we report a case, diagnosed as CCA of lung metastasis in pleural fluid and evaluate...

CSF involvement by nonhematolymphoid malignancies: A descriptive study with emphasis on cytomorphological clues
Conclusion: Nonhematolymphoid malignancies are readily diagnosable on CSF cytology, most of them are metastatic. Identification of malignant cells in CSF is critical, as it has therapeutic and prognostic implications. (Source: Journal of Cytology)

Critical analysis of laboratory requisition forms received in a cytopathology laboratory of a tertiary care centre: An audit and review of literature
Conclusions: Receiving inadequately filled LRFs has been an age-old problem in all medical laboratories. Audit of inadequacy of LRFs helped in assessing the prevailing practices in the hospital and gave an insight into the quality of information available to the cytologists for reporting. Many clinicians withhold information out of ignorance about its importance or due to lack of time to fill up the details on the LRF. Also, filling out a LRF is a task usually delegated to the junior doctor in the OPD and the significance of filling the LRF correctly and comprehensively is often not emphasized upon adequately by the senior...
