Canine Soft Tissue Tumor Synoptic Report Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.This report generator should be used with caution by the pathologist - always verify information produced by this tool. NOTE: Additional questions may be revealed by the answers to other questions (i.e., tumor margins are not asked unless tumor is listed as "not present" at margins). See the Soft Tissue Tumor Protocol for additional considerations. NOTE: This only generates a synoptic report. This may not represent a full pathology report. Sample Measurements (cm) (gross - post fixation)Maximum Tumor Dimension (cm) (gross - post fixation)The largest dimension of the tumor measured at the time of trimming (post fixation)Sample inked?Yes, by submitterYes, by laboratoryNo (representative sections)MarginsSee the Margin Evaluation Guideline for more information.Neoplasia at Margin?PresentAbsentHistologic Tumor Free Distance - Deep (mm)Histologic Tumor Free Distance - Peripheral (mm)Lymphovascular InvasionSee the Lymphovascular Invasion Guideline for more information.Lymphovascular InvasionNot identifiedEquivocalPresentLymphovascular Invasion Criteria DetectedThrombus adherent to intravascular tumorTumor cells invading through a vessel wall and endotheliumNeoplastic cells within a space lined by lymphatic or blood vascular endotheliumNeoplastic cells in a structure confirmed to be a lymphatic or blood vessel by the use of IHC markersNumber of foci of thrombi adherent to intravascular tumor detected?Few (less than 5)Moderate (5-10)Many (more than 10)Number of foci of tumor cells invading through a vessel wall and endothelium detected?Few (less than 5)Moderate (5-10)Many (more than 10)Number of foci of neoplastic cells within a space lined by lymphatic or blood vascular endothelium detected?Few (less than 5)Moderate (5-10)Many (more than 10)Number of foci of neoplastic cells in a structure confirmed to be a lymphatic or blood vessel by the use of IHC markers detected?Few (less than 5)Moderate (5-10)Many (more than 10)Mitotic CountSee the Mitotic Count Guideline for more information.Mitotic Count per 2.37mm2DifferentiationSee also Soft Tissue Tumor Protocol for more information on differentiation.Differentiation Score1: Similar to normal / benign tissue (Sarcomas most closely resembling normal adult mesenchymal tissue, by type)2: Specific histotype (Sarcomas for which histologic type can be determined, although differentiation is poor)3: Poorly / undifferentiated (Undifferentiated sarcomas, sarcomas of unknown type)Per Dennis et al. (2011)NecrosisWhile this is not part of the grading criteria, consider the information in the Tumor Necrosis Guideline when evaluating necrosis. Necrosis0: No necrosis1: Less than or equal to 50% necrosis2: More than 50% necrosisPer Dennis et al.
