DOI: 10.1002/dc.23976
Abstract: Spindle cell neoplasms of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract constitute a wide group of lesions that may raise diagnostic difficulties on hematoxylin–eosin‐stained slides. Appropriate endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine‐needle aspiration (EUS‐FNA) technique with sufficient cell block material for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dc.24192
Abstract: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is an uncommon fibroblastic neoplasm with considerable risk of local recurrence. SFT is histologically characterized by bland spindled‐to‐epithelioid cells in alternating hyper‐ and hypocellular zones, a “patternless pattern,” ectatic “staghorn” vessels… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dc.24289
Abstract: Schwannoma rarely occurs in the stomach. We present a case of gastric schwannoma, which was initially evaluated by endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine‐needle aspiration (EUS‐FNA) biopsy and confirmed by surgical resection. The patient was a 57‐years‐old woman… read more here.
