ABSTRACT This case report describes the detection of intrahepatic bacteria in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded histopathological sections from three dogs with neutrophilic, pyogranulomatous, or lymphoplasmacytic hepatitis and cholangiohepatitis. In each of these cases, eubacterial fluorescence in situ hybridization enabled colocalization of intrahepatic bacteria with neutrophilic and granulomatous inflammation in samples that were negative for bacteria when evaluated by routine hematoxylin and eosin histopathology augmented with histochemical stains. Positive responses to antimicrobial therapy were observed in of 2 out of 2 patients that were treated with antimicrobials. These findings suggest that eubacterial fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded histopathological sections is more sensitive than conventional histochemical stains for the diagnosis of bacteria-associated canine hepatitis.

Abstract Specific rearrangements of chromosome 16 are well known in acute nonlymphocytic leukemia with abnormal eosinophils. While mapping cosmids relative to breakpoints in chromosome 16 in leukemic cells with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), we have identified three areas of extensive cross-homology between 16p and 16q. Three cosmids among 99 tested showed two large signals on the short arm and one signal on the long arm of chromosome 16. A fourth cosmid showed mainly two signals on the short arm. With the 16p-specific cosmid we can demonstrate that the breakpoints of a pericentric inversion and a reciprocal (16;16) translocation, both of which are characteristic for acute leukemia, map to the most distal of two blocks on the short arm. We suggest that there may be at least two distinct repetitive elements specific for chromosome 16 interdigitated on 16p. The presence of a similar repeat in the short, as well as the long arm of the chromosome, may play a role in the origin of chromosome 16 rearrangements in acute leukemia.

Liposarcoma is one of the most common sarcomas in adults, but only rarely presents as an esophageal primary. There have been several reports of well-differentiated liposarcoma (WDL) arising in the esophagus, but we present a case of dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DL) presenting as a large esophageal polyp. We believe this is the first reported case of DL of the esophagus with morphologic evidence of both well-differentiated and dedifferentiated components. The diagnosis was confirmed by demonstration of CPM gene amplification by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).
