Key result
Pleural fluid cytology of metastatic uterine angiosarcoma showed epithelioid tumor cells with vasoformative features and intracytoplasmic vacuoles, positive for CD31 and D2-40.

Pleural fluid cytology combined with immunocytochemistry for endothelial markers (CD31, D2-40) is useful for diagnosing metastatic uterine angiosarcoma.
May support cytologic diagnosis of rare metastatic angiosarcoma; hypothesis-generating and requires validation before clinical adoption.

Kuroda et al. (2014) conducted a case report in Metastatic uterine angiosarcoma (n=1). Pleural fluid cytology and immunocytochemistry was evaluated. Pleural fluid cytology of metastatic uterine angiosarcoma showed epithelioid tumor cells with vasoformative features and intracytoplasmic vacuoles, positive for CD31 and D2-40.
