FIGURE 1 Semiquantitative immunohistochemical staining using an antibody to ALK (D5F3 by Cell Signaling [Billerica, MA] with ADVANCE detection), 400x original magnification. A, IHC score 3+ showing intense granular cytoplasmic staining. B, IHC score 2+ showing moderate smooth cytoplasmic staining (without granularity seen in score 3+). C, IHC score 1+ showing faint, barely discernible cytoplasmic staining in any tumor cells. D, IHC score 0/negative showing no staining.

FIGURE 2 Dual-color break-apart FISH performed using the commercially available ALK probe (Vysis LSI ALK Dual Color, Break Apart Rearrangement Probe, Abbott Molecular, Abbott, IL) on case 11. ALK break-apart FISH showed a straightforward break-apart signal configuration (1 red, 1 green, 1 fusion [1R1G1F]) in 51% of the nuclei, indicating ALK rearrangement. Splitting of the red and green signals (shown with arrows) indicates ALK rearrangement.
