INTRODUCTION / BACKGROUND: Among gastrointestinal (GI) tumours, pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) from appendiceal origin has unique clinical and morphologic features. Due to the relative paucity of patients and the absence of therapeutic consensus, evaluation and refinement of the morphologic criteria used for assessment of the disease are still difficult. As a result, a uniformly accepted classification is still lacking. In collaboration with NJ Carr, who initiated the conference consensus process, in Basingstoke, and on behalf of the French group RENA-PATH, 11 experienced GI pathologists agreed to participate to a virtual workshop, in order to assess inter-observer variability in PMP diagnosis and staging. AIMS: The goal of the study was to evaluate, for appendiceal and peritoneal mucinous neoplasms, the degree of concordance in the identification of diagnostic histological criteria by experienced pathologists, and to assess the degree of inter-individual variation in the application of WHO classification (2010) and TNM staging system (7th edition). METHODS: A single section stained with hematoxylin and eosin from 9 resected cases of mucinous neoplasms was selected by members of RENA-PATH. All digitalized at a maximum resolution (X40) using an HAMMAMATSU scanner system, to ensure that all participants evaluate exactly the same tumour areas; 1 to 16 questions were prepared for each case. On Teleslide web platform, interactive services provided by TRIBVN. All submitted cases were then reviewed by a panel of 11 pathologists with specific expertise and interest in PMP. Data were analyzed using SAS program. RESULTS: Whole slide set evaluated by all participants; no abstention or “unknown diagnosis” for any submitted case. Agreement for classification, WHO 2010: -Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms: LAMN 83 %; mucinous adenocarcinoma 92%. -Peritonei mucinous carcinoma: Low grade 91.7%; high grade 91.7%. -Disagreement on the concept of High Grade AMN defined by low power architecture of LAMN + high grade cytology. -Agreement for using pTNM classification (82%) in PMP. -Pushing Invasion (PI) and dissection by acellular mucin (DAM) in appendix wall are not reproducible criteria and need to be better defined. -Criteria need to be redefined to use HAMN according to a majority of participants. -The identification of signet ring cells is not reproducible; the lesion needs to be better defined. -Invasion of organs and pattern of invasion (broatfront invasion / classic by irregular glands or single cells with desmoplasia) are not reproducible criteria. -Improvement in staging assessment is needed |
