Nuclear atypia is abnormal change of the cell nucleus. Nuclear atypia is often seen in malignancy; however, it may be seen in benign conditions - notably inflammation.
Cancer with minimal nuclear atypia
An incomplete list:
- Low grade papillary urothelial carcinoma.
- Some adenocarcinomas of the upper gastrointestinal tract, e.g. gallbladder adenocarcinoma, stomach adenocarcinoma, ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.
- Invasive lobular carcinoma.
- Verrucous squamous cell carcinoma.
- Some malignant melanomas.
