An 81-year-old male with liver lesion on CT. Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration.

Metastatic neuroendocrine tumor

Smears from this needle aspirate are cellular, nearly devoid of normal-appearing hepatocytes, and quite suspicious for malignancy. Sheets and loose groups of cells have a monotonous, plasmacytoid appearance. The nuclei are uniform and round with coarse, speckled chromatin. Ancillary special stains reveal positivity for cytokeratin as well as chromogranin. The cytomorphologic features best fit a neuroendocrine tumor rather than an adenocarcinoma. Small cell carcinoma may be a consideration, but the degree of nuclear pleomorphism, lack of nuclear molding, and level of hyperchromasia do not reach the threshold for this diagnosis.
