Psammoma bodies appear in benign and malignant conditions. Their presence can help focus the DDx.[1]
They are often associated with a papillary architecture.[citation needed]
Conditions with psammoma bodies
The following is an incomplete list.
Benign
- Endosalpingiosis.
- Endometriosis.[2][3]
- Intrauterine device (IUD).[4]
- Endometrial polyp.[5]
- Meningioma. [6]
- Pituitary adenoma. [7]
- Choroid plexus papilloma. [8]
Malignant
- Papillary thyroid carcinoma.
- Serous carcinoma.
- Somatostatinoma, duodenal.[9]
- Papillary renal cell carcinoma.
- Anaplastic Meningioma.[10]
- Mesothelioma.
- Biphasic hyalinizing psammomatous renal cell carcinoma.
Memory device for common tumours PSaMMoma: Papillary (thyroid, renal), Serous (ovary), Meningioma, Mesothelioma.[11]
Isolated psammoma bodies in smears or aspirates are an unreliable predictor of papillary carcinoma. [12]
