Extruded Highly Proliferative Benign Mucous Neck Cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Histologic mimics of poorly cohesive gastric carcinoma are uncommon but are important for pathologists to recognize. Here we report 2 cases of a novel histologic pattern mimicking poorly cohesive gastric carcinoma. In both cases, light microscopy revealed sheets of discohesive epithelial cells with prominent mitoses that have high proliferative activity, with a Ki67 proliferation index greater than 70%. One case was diagnosed as poorly cohesive carcinoma at an outside hospital and the other was referred in consultation as atypia of undetermined significance. Reexamination of the hematoxylin-eosin slides revealed morphologic clues that these sheets of discohesive cells represent artifactual extrusion of the highly proliferative neck zone from the surrounding benign mucosa. In contrast to poorly cohesive cancer, this artifact lacks all of the following diagnostic features: nuclear atypia, signet ring cell morphology, and intercellular stroma with infiltrating single cells between glands. Eight and 14 months later, both patients remain cancer free.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
