This thyroid was signed out as "PTC", with a note (features suggestive of a follicular variant). Resection confirmed the dx. NOW, in the era of NIFTP, the best dx would be "Suspicious for Malignancy" (S-PTC), with a note "The possibility of NIFTP cannot be entirely excluded".

Reminder to review non-neoplastic tissue in tumor nephrectomies. #renalpath always takes a quick look here. Slightly tedious but can be very useful. RCC pt with amyloidosis. Amyloid A IHC positive (can be seen with RCC); mass spec pending. #nephrology #pathwitter #nephrology

When I ask PGY1s why they think a cell is malignant they often say "prominent nucleoli". A much better criterion is irregularity of nuclear contour. Benign nuclei tend to be symmetric, malignant nuclei are often not. This gives rise to the "4 quadrant rule"

Friday I turned 50. The years leading up to this intimidating age were not easy: demanding job, demanding household with six small kids, bodily aches, lack of sleep, lack of stamina, lack of time, and lack of the desire to pursue those things that I felt I was born to do…🧵

2023 #NobelPeacePrize laureate Narges Mohammadi’s brave struggle has come with tremendous personal costs. The Iranian regime has arrested her 13 times, convicted her five times, and sentenced her to a total of 31 years in prison and 154 lashes. Mohammadi is still in prison.

Dear friends,
Six months ago, I decided to share a few of our consult cases on Twitter in order to promote the consult service and give it an opportunity to grow. The plan was to share one case a week, but as it turned out, discussing interesting cases took on a life of its own, and I never bothered to promote the consult service itself. That, I think, was a good thing, because I'm good at neither selling nor promoting.
Today, though, a few hundred posts and almost 1700 followers later, I will, because I now have a reason I did not have when I first started, and that is the ability and desire to share and keep sharing interesting and challenging breast pathology cases with the microcosm of practicing and aspiring pathologists on this platform.
If you have found value and have enjoyed what I have posted, please retweet and spread the word. I would be very grateful if you did.
So here goes.
Five reasons to send breast pathology consults to Washington University's breast consult service led by yours truly.
1. Challenging cases are discussed as a group at consensus conference, so you get to enjoy decades of cumulative experience in breast pathology with outstanding pathologists and educators, least of whom is me.
2. You will get an official report faxed or at least a phone call (if you so desire) within 24 hours of receipt. As a matter of fact, we try to sign our cases out on the day we receive them, i.e. less than 24 hours after you send them. 80% of cases will be finalized within 24 hours of getting to us.
3. Enjoy direct access to myself and other pathologists, if you have questions, concerns, or requests, by phone or email. My personal contact information is on the website and I will always pick up or return calls, even if the case is not mine. Most of the time it will be, though.
4. Billing is standard CPT for consult cases, not more, and the department accepts payment from pathology practices and from insurance companies.
5. Contribute to the treasure trove of fascinating breast pathology cases, watch as they find a greater audience than ever thought possible, and potentially contribute to official publications that would crystallize the information collected from the unique and rare cases you send.
This is the link to the website pathologyservices.wustl.edu/…. It is also in my profile. Get in touch with me if you have any questions and I will happily answer them to the best of my ability.
Thank you all for listening and sharing. I am always happy and grateful to be of service, whichever way I can.
