Answers

1. D Squamous Metaplasia• Nuclei not enlarged, smooth contours, NC ratio OK. Not HSIL.

2. A Endocervical cells• Small round and regular nuclei. Compare to Ques #1.

3. E Reactive• See the trichomonas organism!

4. D LSIL• Koilocytes!

5. D LSIL• Koilocytes!

6. B Parakeratosis• Sometimes associated with dysplasia

7. D HSV• Herpes Simplex Viral changes in Nucleus

8. D Adenocarcinoma• Crowded overlapping nuclei with prominent nucleoli. No “feathering” so not Adeno in situ (AIS)

9. E HSIL• High NC ratio, irregular nuclei. This actually turned out to be a SCCA on biopsy.

10. A Reactive• No dysplasia, just some squamous cells with neutrophils.
