RESUMO

A 7-year-old female spayed Bernese Mountain dog was presented for evaluation of hematuria. Incidentally, a right stifle sarcoma was diagnosed via cytology, which raised concern for histiocytic sarcoma (given the patient's signalment) versus another joint-associated sarcoma. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry revealed a CD18-negative, non-histiocytic origin cell population. Findings were consistent with a joint-associated grade II soft tissue sarcoma (STS). The patient's hematuria was progressive over 5 months, and urinary bladder transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) was diagnosed via cystoscopy and histopathology. An enlarged right medial iliac lymph node was identified on routine restaging via abdominal ultrasound 3 months later. Cytology of the lymph node revealed a markedly pleomorphic cell population, again raising concern for histiocytic sarcoma (HS). Other differentials included an anaplastic metastatic population from the joint-associated STS or the TCC. Immunocytochemistry revealed a cytokeratin-positive, CD18-, CD204-, and vimentin-negative cell population, consistent with a carcinoma. DNA was extracted from cytology slides to sequence cells for BRAF mutation status. Sequencing revealed a homozygous V596E (transcript ENSCAFT00845055173.1) BRAF mutation, consistent with the known biology of TCC. In neither case was HS truly present in this patient, but immunocytochemistry provided information that helped to optimize the patient's chemotherapy recommendations.

RESUMO

The objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate the expression of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) in canine adrenal tumors and correlate this expression with features of tumor aggressiveness and survival in dogs undergoing adrenalectomy. Forty-three canine adrenal tumors were evaluated for expression of c-kit, fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (flt-3), platelet-derived growth factor receptor-ß (PDGFR-ß), and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) using immunohistochemistry. Tumor RTK staining characteristics were compared to normal adrenals. Medical records were reviewed for data regarding patient outcome and tumor characteristics. Expression of c-kit, flt-3, PDGFR-ß, and VEGFR2 was detected in 26.9%, 92.3%, 96.2%, and 61.5% of cortical tumors and 0%, 63.2%, 47.4%, and 15.8% of pheochromocytomas, respectively. Expression of RTKs was not significantly increased when compared to normal adrenals and did not correlate with survival after adrenalectomy. Receptor tyrosine kinases are not overexpressed in canine adrenal tumors compared to normal adrenal tissue. Therapeutic inhibition of these receptors may still represent an effective approach in cases where receptor activation is present.


L'objectif de cette étude rétrospective était d'évaluer l'expression des récepteurs tyrosine kinases (RTKs) dans les tumeurs surrénales canines et de corréler cette expression avec des caractéristiques d'agressivité tumorale et de survie chez les chiens subissant une surrénalectomie.Quarante-trois tumeurs surrénales canines ont été évaluées pour l'expression de c-kit, de la tyrosine kinase 3 de type fms (flt-3), du récepteur du facteur de croissance dérivé des plaquettes-ß (PDGFR-ß) et du récepteur du facteur de croissance endothélial vasculaire 2 (VEGFR2) par immunohistochimie. Les caractéristiques de coloration de la tumeur RTK ont été comparées à celles des surrénales normales. Les dossiers médicaux ont été examinés pour les données concernant les résultats des patients et les caractéristiques de la tumeur. L'expression de c-kit, flt-3, PDGFR-ß et VEGFR2 a été détectée dans 26,9 %, 92,3 %, 96,2 % et 61,5 % des tumeurs corticales et 0 %, 63,2 %, 47,4 % et 15,8 % des phéochromocytomes, respectivement. L'expression des RTK n'était pas significativement augmentée par rapport aux surrénales normales et n'était pas corrélée avec la survie après surrénalectomie. Les récepteurs tyrosine kinases ne sont pas surexprimés dans les tumeurs surrénales canines par rapport au tissu surrénalien normal. L'inhibition thérapeutique de ces récepteurs peut encore représenter une approche efficace dans les cas où l'activation du récepteur est présente.(Traduit par Docteur Serge Messier).
