IHC and GPS seem parallel to me. It is hard to imagine life without them. They both help to take us to our destination however, we should know where the destination is.

Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma can mimic urothelial carcinoma, so it's crucial to identify the overlying benign urothelium. While IHC for p16 is not helpful in distinguishing between the two, HPV-HR ISH, if positive, is diagnostic of squamous cell carcinoma. #GUpath

Have you ever seen intratesticular fat? See below the first study assessing the frequency of intratesticular adipose tissue - a potential pitfall when staging testicular malignancies. Supervisor: Dr. Sangoi Ankur Sangoi Stanford Pathology pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39911022/

CaRMS match ranking deadline is approaching soon… here is why Pathology should be your #1 choice. ;) Now PGY4 Department of Laboratory Medicine & Pathobiology, and still proud & no regret for having ranked Pathology as my top 1 among other very different specialties I have applied and interviewed in! #PathMatch

Very pleased to share an online piece brought to you by the CAP Personalized Health Care Committee. By Dr. Maria Del Carmen Rodriguez Pena and yours truly. IHC in soft tissue tumor pathology! cap.org/member-resourc… #PathTwitter #molpath #surgpath #BSTpath CAPathologists

Excited to begin my final year of residency in Diagnostic and Molecular Pathology (Anatomical Pathology) at University of Toronto, and honoured to serve as a Chief Resident from July to December. Grateful for the opportunity, and looking forward to continued learning and collaboration!

Interesting case to share  (Board question): What's your diagnosis for this 3.3 cm renal tumor from a 42-year-old man? Vimentin, SMA, CD34, and CD10 are positive. Electron microscopy reveals electron-dense, rhomboid-shaped crystals in the cytoplasm.
