A Case Of Chronic Appendiceal Intussusception Secondary To Unsuspected Endometriosis, Matthew Lee, Susana Ferra

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024

Introduction: Intussusception of the appendix is an exceedingly rare pathology with an incidence of 0.01%.

Case Summary: Patient is a 55 y/o female with appendiceal intussusception on CT and endoscopy. She was admitted for elective laparoscopic appendectomy, a distorted area involving the cecum and terminal ileum was identified. Procedure was converted to an open ileocolic resection due to the unclear anatomy and concern for possible malignancy. An intraoperative consultation revealed an inverted appendix.

Results: Gross examination of the specimen showed a structure protruding into the cecum lumen with an intact mucosal surface. Microscopic examination revealed a central fibromuscular core with …

Recurrent Non-Sustained Ventricular Tachycardias In A Patient With Suspicion Of Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: A Case Report, Chinar Singh, Meng Xie, Poonam Choudhry, Asif Jawaid

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024

Objective: This case study aims to highlight the mechanisms, clinical presentation, diagnostic strategies, and management approach utilized for recurrent non-sustained ventricular tachycardias in a patient with suspected cardiac amyloidosis.

Background: Amyloidosis is a group of disorders characterized by the abnormal deposition of amyloid proteins in tissues and organs throughout the body. These proteins aggregate into insoluble fibrils that disrupt normal cellular function, leading to a range of clinical manifestations depending on the affected organs. Cardiac amyloidosis is characterized by the deposition of amyloid fibrils specifically in the myocardial tissue, leading to restrictive cardiomyopathy, progressive heart failure and arrhythmias. Ventricular tachycardia …

Primary Squamous Cell Carcinoma (Scc) Of The Sigmoid Colon: A Rare Location & Histological Subtype Of Colorectal Carcinoma (Crc), Astrid Sacasa, Stachyse Stanis, Mohtashim Naeem

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024

Introduction. Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the colon is a rare histological subtype of CRC with poor prognosis. It most frequently occurs in the right colon, and least commonly in the sigmoid colon. Similar CRC symptoms no matter the subtype can range from asymptomatic to rectal bleeding, abdominal pain, change in bowel habits, and weight loss. Here, we describe a case of primary basaloid SCC of the sigmoid colon.

Case description. A 71-year-old female with no significant past medical history presented with guaiac-positive stools, underwent a colonoscopy revealing an ulcerated mass in the left colon. Histopathology and immunohistochemical results …

Spinal Pilomyxoid Astrocytoma In A 17-Month-Old Twin, Gul Emek Wymer, Chamyan Gabriel, Robert Bender, Susana Ferra

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024

Introduction: A pilomyxoid astrocytoma is a rare type of brain tumor that primarily affects young children, typically arising in the hypothalamic-suprasellar region of the brain. Unlike pilocytic astrocytoma, PMA is characterized by a more aggressive clinical course and distinct histopathological features, including a monomorphic cell population, angiocentric arrangement, and a myxoid background.

Case presentation: A 17 months old patient with a history of twin to twin transfusion was brought to the hospital with a complaint of motor regression, compared to his twin. The CT and MRI images revealed an intradural intramedullary spinal mass. The mass tissue biopsy was sent to …

Standardization Of Operating Room (Or) Formalin Fixation Time Reporting In Breast Cancer Cases. An Institutional Experience., Cameron Summers, Astrid Sacasa, Nicole Sant Elia, Susana Ferra

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024

Background: The current guidelines of the American society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and College of American Pathologists (CAP) regarding laboratory testing of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER-2 in breast cancer have been in place since 2010. Optimal tissue handling requires a cold ischemic time of less than 1 hour and a formalin fixation time between 6 and 72 hours. In July 2023 HCA Westside hospital implemented a new Formalin Fixation Time documentation protocol. The data is presented quarterly at the Cancer Committee meeting.

Goal: To standardized the cold ischemic time and formalin fixation time reporting and measure …
