Criteria and diagnostic terms for uterine smooth muscle tumors
Criteria and diagnostic terms for uterine smooth muscle tumors (adapted from the work of Richard Kempson )
Coagulative necrosis
Mitotic count per 10 HPF
Atypia
Diagnosis
Present
Greater than 10
Moderate to severe (focal or diffuse)
Leiomyosarcoma
None to mild
Leiomyosarcoma
Equal or less than 10
Moderate to severe (focal or diffuse)
Leiomyosarcoma
None to mild
STUMP (1)
Absent
Greater than 10
Moderate to severe, focal
Leiomyosarcoma
Moderate to severe diffuse
STUMP (2)
None to mild
Mitotically active leiomyoma (up to 15 mitoses/10 HPF are allowed)
Equal or less than 10
Moderate to severe, focal
STUMP (3)
Moderate to severe diffuse
Leiomyoma (4)
None to mild
Leiomyoma
(1) Of the three tumors here placed in the STUMP category, this is the one most likely to behave in a malignant fashion. Actually, it is regarded as a probable leiomyosarcoma in Kempson's scheme. The alternative possibility of an infarction in a leiomyoma due to torsion or other factors should be considered.
(2) In Kempson's scheme, this is designated as STUMP if the mitotic activity is higher than 15.
(3) This is referred to as "atypical leiomyoma with low risk of recurrence" in Kempson's scheme.
(4) This is designated as "leiomyoma with limited experience" in Kempson's scheme.

Liver transplantation RAI
Liver transplantation
REJECTION ACTIVITY INDEX (RAI)
Criteria which can be used to score liver allograft biopsies with acute rejection, as defined by the World Gastroenterology Consensus Document.
Category
Criteria
Score
Portal Inflammation
Mostly lymphocytic inflammation involving, but not noticeably expanding, a minority of the triads
1
Expansion of most or all of the triads, by a mixed infiltrate containing lymphocytes with occasional blasts, neutrophils and eosinophils
2
Marked expansion of most or all of the triads by a mixed infiltrate containing numerous blasts and eosinophils with inflammatory spillover into the periportal parenchyma
3
Bile Duct Inflammation Damage
A minority of the ducts are cuffed and infiltrated by inflammatory cells and show only mild reactive changes such as increased nuclear:cytoplasmic ratio of the epithelial cells
1
Most or all of the ducts infiltrated by inflammatory cells. More than an occasional duct shows degenerative changes such as nuclear pleomorphism, disordered polarity and cytoplasmic vacuolization of the epithelium
2
As above for 2, with most or all of the ducts showing degenerative changes or focal lumenal disruption
3
Venous Endothelial Inflammation
Subendothelial lymphocytic infiltration involving some, but not a majority of the portal and/or hepatic venules
1
Subendothelial infiltration involving most or all of the portal and/or hepatic venules
2
As above for 2, with moderate or severe perivenular inflammation that extends into the perivenular parenchyma and is associated with perivenular hepatocyte necrosis
3
Total RAI Score = _/9
