a. b. c. d. e.
1. A 69 year old male with history of asbestos exposure presents with pleural effusion: The CT scan shows diffuse left sided pleural thickening. The pleural cytology shows clusters of atypical cells with an epithelioid morphology which are immunohistochemically AE1/3 and CK7 positive, but negative for BerEP4, CEA, TTF-1, CK20, CD34 and desmin. The likely diagnosis is: Pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Malignant mesothelioma. Small cell carcinoma. Malignant solitary fibrous tumour. Epithelioid leiomyosarcoma.
