Lobomycosis

-caused by the noncultivable fungus, Paracoccidioides lobogeorgii (formerly Lacazia loboi)
-Found in Amazon basin
-causes keloid-like lesions
-Dx: histopath (round yeasts like pearls)

Here, a child developed it after a tick bite 1 yr earlier

2/ Histologic features of Sarcoidosis typically include well-formed non-caseating granulomas composed of epithelioid histiocytes and multinucleated giant cells along with an active tubulointerstitial nephritis typically composed of a lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate, rarely containing eosinophils.

Huge thanks to Team Eva for cycling 1,000+ miles from Land’s End to John O’Groats in support of Paul’s daughter Eva, who was diagnosed with Sclerosing Epithelioid Fibrosarcoma at 13. They finished Saturday with Eva cheering them on 💪

Epithelioid angiosarcoma with extensive intravascular growth. Obviously there must be a right sided primary. There’s supposed to be a liver mass.

Happy Memorial Day

In this essay, I examine angiosarcoma including postradiation, epithelioid angiosarcoma, breast implant associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma and myoepithelial carcinoma.

Oh, I mean it looks very epithelioid, reminding me of those biphasic sarcomas that have epithelioid component
