Objective:To establish and validate a malignant risk prediction model of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) with pulmonary fibrosis in long-term smokers based on 18F-flurodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT. Methods:PET/CT images of 222 SPNs combined with pulmonary fibrosis which were shown in integrated CT scan in 169 patients (all males; age 68(63, 75) years) were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were examined in PET/CT Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2011 to December 2019 and all had definite smoking history. The benign and malignant nodules were judged according to the pathological diagnosis or follow-up imaging data of lung lesions (follow-up≥2 years). The clinical characteristics (age, smoking index), morphological characteristics (longest diameter of lesion, density, location, distribution, relative position of fibrosis, spiculation, lobulation, calcification, vacuole, vascular convergence, pleural indentation, emphysema and severity of bilateral pulmonary fibrosis) and metabolic characteristics (maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max)) of the benign and malignant lesions were analyzed by χ2 test and Mann-Whitney U test. Then multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to select independent risk factors of malignant nodules, and a risk prediction model was established and verified by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and k-fold cross validation ( k=10) respectively. Results:Among 169 patients, 222 SPNs were detected (157 malignant nodules, 65 benign nodules). Univariate analysis showed that smoking index, speculation, lobulation, vascular convergence sign, calcification, emphysema, nodule size, relative position of nodule and fibrosis, SUV max and severity of bilateral pulmonary fibrosis were significantly different between the benign and malignant nodules ( z values: 2.514-9.858, χ2 values: 4.353-18.442, all P<0.05). Result of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that calcification, vascular convergence and SUV max were the independent risk factors of malignant nodules combined with pulmonary fibrosis (odds ratio ( OR): 0.048-2.534, all P<0.05). The risk prediction model was as follow: P=1/(1+ e - x), x=-1.839-3.033×calcification+ 0.930×vascular convergence+ 0.754×SUV max(with calcification/vascular convergence=1, without calcification/vascular convergence=0). The area under ROC curve was 0.932(95% CI: 0.895-0.969), and the sensitivity and specificity of the model were 87.9% and 86.2%, respectively. Results of k-fold cross validation showed that the prediction accuracy of 10 test sets was 0.847±0.075, and was 0.862±0.010 in training sets. Conclusions:Calcification, vascular convergence and SUV max are independent risk factors of malignant SPNs combined with pulmonary fibrosis in long-term asymptomatic smokers. The model based on the above variables presents high diagnostic efficiency in diagnosing malignant SPNs.

Objective:
To investigate the clinicopathological features, special morphologic variants and potential diagnostic traps of classical follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS).
Methods:
A total of 25 cases of classical FDCS diagnosed in the First Hospital Affiliated to Army Medical University from 2006 to 2018 were examined by hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus-encoded mRNA (EBER). Meanwhile, the types and characteristics of the special variants of FDCS were summarized along with those reported in the literature.
Results:
The age of patients ranged from 23 to 77 years (mean 52 years), the male to female ratio was 1.5, and the maximum diameter of tumor was 1.5 to 20 cm (mean 7.4 cm). Twelve cases (48%) were misdiagnosed at the initial evaluation. Follow-up information was available for 17 patients, and the follow-up time was 5 to 96 months. The propotion of patients having recurrence, metastasis and mortality was 3/17, 5/17 and 2/17, respectively. Microscopically, besides the typical morphology, 10 cases of FDCS showed special histomorphologies and/or structures, including those mimicking lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma, desmoplastic infiltrating carcinoma, classical Hodgkin′s lymphoma (CHL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and hemangiopericytoma. These morphologic variants were potential diagnostic pitfalls and warranted attention. Immunohistochemistry showed that more than two markers of follicular dendritic cells (such as CD21, CD23, CD35, etc.) were expressed in cases showing typical morphology and the special variants. All 25 cases were all negative for EBER by in situ hybridization.
Conclusions
Classical FDCS is rare, besides the typical morphologic features, there are many special variants. In particular, these may be confused with lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma in the nasopharynx, CHL or ALCL in the mediastinum/lymph node. Awareness of these variants is essential for accurate diagnosis.
