Malignant mesothelioma (MM) can show areas closely mimicking reactive mesothelial proliferations or recapitulating benign adenomatoid tumors (ATs) making distinction on occasion impossible on morphologic ground alone, particularly in limited biopsy material. Recently, loss of BAP1 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been suggested as a potential marker for identifying MM, but data is still limited. We studied 264 MM cases (257 using tissue microarrays; 7 on conventional slides) and 42 genital ATs for BAP1 immunohistochemical expression. Loss of BAP1 protein expression was observed in 119/211 of MM cases (56.4%). Taken by histologic type, 64.3% of biphasic, 55.4% of epithelioid, and 41.7% of sarcomatoid MM were BAP1-deficient. In contrast, all 42 ATs showed retained BAP1 immunoreactivity. Notably, all 4 MM cases with variable adenomatoid-like features were BAP1-deficient. Surface components of MM of the pleura showed concordant loss as the invasive tumor suggesting a potential role for BAP1 loss for recognizing so-called early mesothelioma. In conclusion, BAP1 loss demonstrated by IHC is seen in more than half of MM cases but none of ATs. Thus, BAP1 IHC represents a potential adjunct for distinguishing MM from benign mesothelial proliferations including in particular “MM with bland adenomatoid-like pattern versus benign ATs” on biopsy material and early mesothelioma with limited invasion.

BAP1 缺失是区分恶性间皮瘤(包括腺瘤样变异)与良性腺瘤样肿瘤的有用辅助手段

恶性间皮瘤 (MM) 可以显示与反应性间皮增殖或重现性良性腺瘤样肿瘤 (AT) 相似的区域,有时仅凭形态学无法区分,尤其是在有限的活检材料中。最近,免疫组织化学 (IHC) 导致的 BAP1 丢失被认为是识别 MM 的潜在标志物,但数据仍然有限。我们研究了 264 个 MM 病例(257 个使用组织微阵列;7 个在常规载玻片上)和 42 个用于 BAP1 免疫组织化学表达的生殖器 AT。在 119/211 的 MM 病例 (56.4%) 中观察到 BAP1 蛋白表达缺失。从组织学类型来看,64.3% 的双相型、55.4% 的上皮样和 41.7% 的肉瘤样 MM 缺乏 BAP1。相比之下,所有 42 个 AT 都显示出保留的 BAP1 免疫反应性。尤其,所有 4 例具有可变腺瘤样特征的 MM 病例均缺乏 BAP1。胸膜 MM 的表面成分显示出作为侵袭性肿瘤的一致丢失,这表明 BAP1 丢失在识别所谓的早期间皮瘤方面具有潜在作用。总之,在超过一半的 MM 病例中看到了 IHC 证明的 BAP1 丢失,但没有一个 AT。因此,BAP1 IHC 代表了区分 MM 与良性间皮增殖的潜在辅助手段,特别是活检材料上的“具有温和腺瘤样模式的 MM 与良性 ATs”和侵袭有限的早期间皮瘤。IHC 显示的 BAP1 丢失在超过一半的 MM 病例中可见,但在 AT 中没有。因此,BAP1 IHC 代表了区分 MM 与良性间皮增殖的潜在辅助手段,特别是活检材料上的“具有温和腺瘤样模式的 MM 与良性 ATs”和侵袭有限的早期间皮瘤。IHC 显示的 BAP1 丢失在超过一半的 MM 病例中可见,但在 AT 中没有。因此,BAP1 IHC 代表了区分 MM 与良性间皮增殖的潜在辅助手段,特别是活检材料上的“具有温和腺瘤样模式的 MM 与良性 ATs”和侵袭有限的早期间皮瘤。
