Follicular and adnexal tumors + more Flashcards
Virus associated with equine genital SCC
EcPV2
Virus associated with equine aural plaques
EcPV 3-6
Virus associated with feline skin papillomas
FcaPV1

What is the difference between BISC and SCC
BISC = dysplasia that stays within the epidermis and follicle
SCC crosses the BMZ, keratin pearls
Histopath characteristic finding for BISC
“Wind swept” look to basal cells without invasion into dermis
Which virus is most common in BISC in cats?
FcaPV2
(also 3-5 less commonly)
What is a risk factor for BISC, especially on haired, pigmented skin in cats?
FcaPV2
Characteristic histopath finding of SCC
Cords of dysplastic keratinocytes
Keratin pearls
IHC marker for SCC
Cytokeratin (epithelial)
Which virus is associated with SCC in horses?
EcPV2
Which virus is associated with SCC in cats
FcaPV2
What disease other than SCC has keratin pearls
Infundibular keratinizing acanthoma
But no atypical keratinocytes with IKA
T or F: Feline Basal Cell Tumors are often actinic
False. On haired skin.
Clusters of monomorphic basaloid cells
Most common type of hair follicle neoplasm in Guinea Pigs
Trichofolliculoma
Central depression or pore
Cystic primary follicle surrounded by secondary follicles
How can you differentiate follicular cyst types
Infundibular vs isthmus vs matrical vs hybrid
Which dog breed may be predisposed to tricholemmoma
Afghan hounds
Origin of tricholemmoma
Derived from ORS
“Bulb cells” lined by thick, hyalinized basement membrane
Trichoepithelioma biologic behavior
Benign
What cat breed is predisposed to trichoepitheliomas
Persians
Histopath of trichoepithelioma
Cystic islands of epithelium with hair follicle differentiation
Looks like little bulbs within the dermis
IHC marker for trichoepithelioma
p27
(Also trichoblastoma!)
Which 2 hair follicle tumors are + for p27
Trichoblastoma
Trichoepithelioma
Which hair follicle tumor is common in cats and dogs
Trichoblastoma
Base of the ear; BENIGN
Origin of trichoblastoma
Hair germ
Low proliferative capacity –> BENIGN
Infundibular keratinizing acanthoma (keratoacantoma) breeds
Norwegian elkhound
Keeshonds
GSD
English SHeepdogs
Collies
Lhasa apsos
Yorkie
Histopath of infundibular keratinizing acanthoma
Cup shapred
Several keratin pearls on periphery (secondary cysts)
What is this (older cat on head, neck or trunk)
Dilated pore of Winer
Benign. Large central pore with keratin
Clinical lesion: Dog. Solitary, wartlike papules/nodules with hyperkeratotic umbilicated center
On histopath: cup-shaped invagination, keratin filled channel connects to surface.
At center of invagination– acantholytic dyskeratotic cells, corps ronds
Warty Dyskeratoma
benign
Other name for Calcifying epithelioma
Pilomatricoma
Origin of pilomatricoma
Follicular bulb
Breeds predisposed to pilomatricomas
Kerry blue terriers
Poodles
Old English Sheepdogs
T or F: the basal cells that make a pilomatricoma have LOW p27, resulting in a HIGH mitotic rate
True.
Tumor can grow quickly
Which tumor is LOW in p27
Pilomatricoma
Order of most common to least common sebaceous gland tumors
1) Nodular hyperplasia
2) Sebaceous epithelioma
3) Sebaceous adenoma
4) Sebaceous adenocarcinoma
Breeds predisposed to sebaceous hyperplasia
Beagle
Cocker spaniel
Poodle
Dachshund
Mini schnauzer
Difference between sebaceous gland hyperplasia and sebaceous adenoma
Adenoma has more lobule proliferation, more irregularity in shape/size
More likely to form DUCTS than hyperplasia
Breeds predisposed to sebaceous epitheliomas
Shih tzus
Lhasa apsos
Malamutes
Huskies
Irish Setters
Color of sebaceous epitheliomas
Oftentimes melanocytic
Eyelids, head
Biologic behavior of sebaceous epitheliomas
Low grade malignancy
Technically a basal cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation
Sebaceous adenocarcinoma frequency in dogs and cats
RARE
Only 2% of sebaceous tumors
Body region most likely to have a sebaceous adenocarcinoma
Head, limbs
Ulcerate
What type of gland are perianal glands
Modified sebaceous glands
What hormones do perianal glands respond to
Androgen and estrogen receptors on perianal glands
Breeds predisposed to perianal gland tumors
Cocker spaniel
English Bulldog
Samoyed
Afghan
Dachshund
GSD
Beagle
Husky
Shih tzu
