Operations Pathhub

Case 1007  2.5.14 (R. Carr)  M 75 ?BCC scalp 

Difficult case.  At first glance looked like sebaceous or liposarcoma with malignant-looking clear cells.  These were actually CD68+ve AFX variant.  30% of the specimen composed of epithelial component squamoid BCC (Ber-EP4+ve).   

Message: sebocyte-like differentiation isn’t always true sebaceous differentiation. 

DD: clear-cell melanoma – no answer re melanocyte markers
