Is the lesion epithelial or mesothelial?
- No specific panel of antibodies recommended (depends
on antibody clone and laboratory experience)
- Antibodies chosen should have a sensitivity and
specificity of at least 80%
- TWO MESOTHELIAL AND TWO EPITHELIAL MARKERS

Differential Diagnosis with Sarcomatoid Mesothelioma :
- Sarcoma (synovial sarcoma) : test for translocation (SS18-SSX1).
- Pleomorphic carcinoma : Difficult differential diagnosis if differentiation
markers are negative/ only CK is positive. Need to correlate with clinical and
imaging findings.

IV. Updates and biomarkers
V. Selected interesting cases
Case 1 : 66 year old male with pleural effusion.
The proliferation of mesothelial cells is not organized.
Calretinin
CK 7
The CK7 stain shows haphazard arrangement of mesothelial cells.
However, there is no definitive evidence of tissue invasion.
TTF-1
Pneumocytes
• Thickened pleura
• Haphazard proliferation of mesothelial
cells
• No definitive evidence of invasion of other
structures.
Atypical Mesothelial
Proliferation
Case 2 : 42 year old, female with pleural thickening
• Clinical history :
– With prior diagnosis of “peritoneal mesothelioma” s/p
tumor debulking and partial omentectomy in 2007
– s/p chemotherapy (2007-2008)

Diagnosis :
• Right pleural thickening :
– ATYPICAL MESOTHELIAL PROLIFERATION.
COMMENTS :
- Immunohistochemical stains support mesothelial origin
of the cells. However, no evidence of invasion into
adjacent tissue (lung parenchyma or fat), which precludes
a definitive diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma.
- Suggest BAP1 immunohistochemistry and homozygous
deletion of p16 FISH.
- NO LOSS of expression of BAP1 by immunohistochemistry.
- NO HOMOZYGOUS DELETION of p16 gene by FISH.

  • 99. Diagnosis : • Right pleural thickening : – ATYPICAL MESOTHELIAL PROLIFERATION. COMMENTS : - Immunohistochemical stains support mesothelial origin of the cells. However, no evidence of invasion into adjacent tissue (lung parenchyma or fat), which precludes a definitive diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma. - Suggest BAP1 immunohistochemistry and homozygous deletion of p16 FISH. - NO LOSS of expression of BAP1 by immunohistochemistry. - NO HOMOZYGOUS DELETION of p16 gene by FISH.
