Transcript and Presenter's Notes

Title: Objectives


1
  • Objectives
  • Detect and recognize cytoplasmic organelles and
    matrix
  • Interpret the ultrastructural features of
    commonly encountered tumors, non neoplastic
    entities and infectious agents
  • Guide to tissue submission
  • Undifferentiated malignant tumors Small cell
    malignancies
  • Neuroendocrine tumors CNS tumors
  • Anomalous IHC results Select IHC panel
  • Eosinophilic granuloma Renal biopsies
  • Heart biopsies Nerve biopsies
  • Bullous diseases of skin Storage diseases
  • Rapid diagnosis of viral infection Ciliary
    dysmorphology
  • Extracellular matrix

2
  • Processing tissue for electron microscopy
  • 1 mm cubed tissue pieces
  • Dehydrate, infiltrate, osmicate, embed in plastic
  • Toluidine blue thick sections
  • Thin sections 100 nm on copper grids (silver
    sections)
  • Interpretation of electron micrographs
  • Determine approximate magnification
  • Identify organelles
  • Integrate ultrastructural features with clinical
    history, light microscopy, IHC and molecular
    diagnostics
  • Limitations of electron microscopy
  • Sample size
  • Multidirectional differentiation
  • No diagnostic organelles

3
  • Primer of Organelles
  • Nucleus
  • Abundant heterochromatin Ewings sarcoma, B cell
    lymphoma
  • Cerebriform nuclear contours
  • Nuclear pseudoinclusions nuclear pockets
  • Intranuclear tubular aggregates
  • Nucleolus
  • Meandering reticular nucleoli seminoma,
    dysgerminoma
  • Marginated Nucleolus
  • Increased nucleoli
