Thank you all for engaging!
@UJoneja and @AMALHAB33821456, you are absolutely right...This is indeed a invasive stratified mucin producing carcinoma (ISMC) ! Check out the stains and additional images below
@MarcAnthony_Rod @MarcosLepeMD
This lesion had a deceptive squamo-transtional look on low power..some areas showed well developed stratified mucin though...on closer look, almost all of this tumor has mucin, though not very conspicuous.
A comp of glandular differentiation (AIS) & HSIL also present

30 yo patient, circumscribed uterine mass #Gynpath
Placental site trophoblastic tumor!
* Derived from implantation site intermediate trophoblast
* Polygonal cells with irregular, hyperchromatic nuclei
* Dense eosinophilic cytoplasm
* "Splitting" of myometrial fibers
* Tumor cells often invade into vessels (lower right)
* Can be self-limited, but some cases are agressive, depends on stage, age, and duration from antecedent pregnancy.

1. #Breastpath Hey all, myofibroblastomas are really sweet. Let’s learn about them. @ADamronMD @TheKarenPinto @KRoSlideReview @Chucktowndoc @jennpincus @LizaMQuintana @drkennethtang @dr_MPrieto
2. Clinical: Uncommon tumors. Well circumscribed, may slowly enlarge over time. Size usu. up to 4cm. Historically (and on boards/RISE exams presently)more common in men, but now seem to occur equally in men and women.
