Despite the current pandemic season, reports on pathologic features of coronavirus disease 19 (Covid-19) are exceedingly rare at the present time. Here we describe the pathologic features of early lung involvement by Covid-19 in a surgical sample resected for carcinoma from a patient who developed SARS-CoV-2 infection soon after surgery. The main histologic findings observed were pneumocyte damage, alveolar hemorrhages with clustering of macrophages, prominent and diffuse neutrophilic margination within septal vessels, and interstitial inflammatory infiltrates, mainly represented by CD8+ T lymphocytes. These features are similar to those previously described in SARS-CoV-2 infection. Subtle histologic changes suggestive pulmonary involvement by Covid-19 may be accidentally encountered in routine pathology practice, especially when extensive sampling is performed for histology. These findings should be carefully interpreted in light of the clinical context of the patient and could prompt a pharyngeal swab PCR test to rule out the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 infection in asymptomatic patients.
EGFR‐kinase‐domain duplication (KDD) has been reported in Infantile fibrosarcoma‐like myofibroblastic tumors and cellular mesoblastic nephroma. We report a pulmonary neoplasm with EGFR‐(KDD) and infantile fibrosarcoma‐like histologic features in a female infant with an unusual clinical and histologic evolution, characterized by persistent disease with morphologic features of Congenital Peribronchial Myofibroblastic Tumor (CPMT) after chemotherapy and targeted therapy. The CPMT morphology with EGFR‐KDD in the post‐therapy specimen might be an evolution induced by the treatment, which suggests the hypothesis that CPMT is part of the morphologic spectrum of infantile fibrosarcoma/cellular mesoblastic nephroma.
