Reactive atypia a confusing term that should not be used.[1]

The correct categorization of a specimen is one of the following:

  1. Reactive (benign).
  2. Dysplastic (pre-malignant).
  3. Indefinite for dysplasia (I don't know).

Reactive atypia confused people between #1 and #2.

Reactive atypia is used by Sternberg.[2]
