#GUpath bladder lovers: take a read at this fantastic editorial by Drs. Sara Wobker & Steven Smith in the upcoming AJCP issue: Urothelial carcinoma-are we moving beyond "divergent differentiation" and "histologic subtype"? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40512055/

BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed: (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)

Not all squamous metaplasia is equal. When found in the bladder, always note whether keratinization is present—non-keratinizing form is more often benign, while keratinizing form raises concern for dysplasia/carcinoma and requires careful follow up. #GUPath #PathTwitter #MedEd

#GUpath MRI targeted prostate lesional biopsy 🔬: skeletal muscle involvement by prostate cancer should NOT be considered "EPE" (requires tumor invading adipose tissue) but should you still report it? we do in our synoptic summary table (see ref)

#GUpath TURBT: this non-invasive pap uro ca is predominantly low grade with subset high grade ▪️WHO states that 5% cutoff can be used to label as outright high grade ▪️in my practice when tumor approaching this cutoff, I tend to say "mixed low/high grade" and given %s

Leadership isn't measured by how many followers you have. It's gauged by how may lives you improve. Selfish leaders divide people to advance personal agendas. Servant leaders unite people to achieve common goals. The best leaders are those who bring out the best in others.

#GUpath: struggling to decide if this radical prostatectomy has Gleason pattern 4 vs 5? 🤔 it's neither! this tumor (often painfully deceptive to 👀🔬) is from a patient with prior androgen deprivation therapy [prior bx Grade group 3] ➡️Gleason grading not applicable!
