Summary

A patient with rectal adenocarcinoma showed epithelioid proliferations in an epiphrenic lymph node. Further tests revealed these were benign mesothelial proliferations, not malignant mesothelioma metastasis.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology
  • Surgical Pathology

Context:

  • Epitheloid proliferations in an epiphrenic lymph node after rectal adenocarcinoma resection.
  • Initial immunohistochemical findings suggested malignant mesothelioma metastasis.
  • Radiologic examination did not support the suspicion of mesothelioma.

Purpose:

  • To differentiate between metastatic malignant mesothelioma and benign mesothelial proliferations.
  • To accurately diagnose unusual findings in lymph node tissue.
  • To guide appropriate patient management based on correct diagnosis.

Summary:

  • A 55-year-old female patient with rectal adenocarcinoma presented with epithelioid proliferations in an epiphrenic lymph node and adjacent vessels.
  • Immunohistochemistry initially suggested malignant mesothelioma metastasis (pan-keratin, calretinin, WT1 positive).
  • Subsequent work-up (desmin positive, EMA/GLUT1/p53 negative, low Ki67) confirmed benign mesothelial proliferations, excluding metastasis.

Impact:

  • Highlights the importance of comprehensive immunohistochemical analysis in challenging differential diagnoses.
  • Demonstrates that benign mesothelial proliferations can mimic metastatic disease.
  • Emphasizes the need to correlate imaging findings with histopathology for accurate diagnosis.
