They are rarely targeted on their own, and are usually found in the shadows of other more consequential lesions. Panoramic view of an adenoid cystic carcinoma involving the parotid. There are intercalated duct lesions hiding right in the middle, too small to see at this magnification. I was taught that they… ## [A rare “thyroid” nodule, part two](https://justapa.thologi.st/posts/a-rare-thyroid-nodule-2/) _2026-04-01 · André's slide box_ A man in the fourth decade of life presents with a thyroid nodule that ends up being, well, not a thyroid nodule ## [A review of follicular neoplasm of the thyroid](https://justapa.thologi.st/posts/fn-ofn-review/) _2025-04-25 · André Lametti · André's slide box_ Microfollicles, as seen in a fine-needle aspiration specimen of a thyroid nodule. This finding is the canonical basis to render a diagnosis in the category of "follicular neoplasm". Diagnosing follicular neoplasms in thyroid fine-needle aspiration specimens can be difficult, and for good reason: it is a diagnostic category intended for a family of lesions for whom it is generally not possible to… ## [paw: Parse and Anonymize Whole-slide images](https://justapa.thologi.st/posts/paw-digital-slide-anonymization/) _2025-03-23 · André Lametti · André's slide box_ Acquisition of pathology whole-slide images (WSI) generates confidential patient metadata which must be handled appropriately for non-clinical purposes. Free software with multi-vendor support to remove identifying metadata from WSI is available but may be difficult to use by teams with varying information technology comfort. This post describes my design of a cross-platform file drag-and-drop… ## [Saving Digital Pathology](https://justapa.thologi.st/posts/saving-digital-pathology/) _2025-02-18 · André Lametti · André's slide box_ Is digital pathology heading the same way as music streaming? For most labs, the financial and human cost of keeping the infrastructure and delivery of digital pathology in-house is probably too high. But what this will mean for research and teaching activities that rely on easy and unfettered access to data is a tricky problem. Choosing to keep some things small and local is a tool to… ## [A rare “thyroid” nodule](https://justapa.thologi.st/posts/a-rare-thyroid-nodule/) _2024-12-03 · André Lametti · André's slide box_ Most thyroid fine-needle aspirates fit neatly into one of the 6 categories of the Bethesda classification. But sometimes, cases are not so easy and it is worth thinking outside the boxes! The specimen showed large three-dimensional fragments composed of bland cells with moderate cytoplasm, as well as irregular edges. This case was one of the latter. Although the targeted nodule was located in the…
