@Markie27070028 No, I haven't, but we don't routinely do MYC immunohistochemistry. All our aggressive B cell lymphoma get FISH, so IHC doesn't influence ultimate diagnosis. It's theoretically possible for IHC to be negative if MYC antibody targets epitope near translocation site.

@krithik27724048 I don't know. They're not common cases and we generally don't use CK7/20 as it's usually assumed to be a primary gastric tumour.

@MeredithKHerman @MirunaPopescu13 @UMichPath Wouldn't CD68 highlight the sinusoids? Great case! Like a lot of diagnoses, it's obvious once you know the answer.

@krithik27724048 A case with this appearance could be either EBV+ or mismatch repair deficient, so loss of MLH1/PMS2 in your case fits too.
