Clinical History: A 52-year old man presented with shortness of breath. A large pleural effusion was seen on the chest X-ray. A thoracentesis was performed, and 1.5 L bloody fluid was removed and sent to cytopathology for evaluation. Representative images from the cytospin and cell block preparation of the effusion sample are shown in Figures 1-3. A CT scan of the chest revealed a mass in the superior aspect of the left lower lobe with circumferential nodular pleural thickening. A percutaneous CT-guided biopsy was performed of a pleural based lesion. The histologic images are shown in figures 4 and 5.Click here to see more.
