4th Annual A Practical Approach to Surgical and Cytopathology
In-Person Event
Apr 19 - 21, 2018
San Diego, California, USASpeakers
OVERVIEW
4th Annual A Practical Approach to Surgical and Cytopathology is organized by Educational Symposia (ESI) and will be held during Apr 19 - 21, 2018 at Hotel Del Coronado, Coronado, California, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event is practicing pathologists. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 17.50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits/SAM Credit Hours.
Conference Overview :
This seminar has been designed to provide a practical and comprehensive review of a variety of topics in surgical pathology including gastrointestinal, genitourinary, head and neck, soft tissue and hepatic pathology. This course will include an overview of diagnostic pearls which allow for an accurate diagnosis as well as how to best avoid important diagnostic pitfalls. Some of the discussion will be related to pertinent diagnostic immunohistochemical and molecular genetic techniques which allow the pathologist to refine their diagnosis, as well as a significant opportunity for interactive discussion between members and participants.
Conference Objectives :
Attendees should, at the completion of this course, be able to:
• Recognize the major diagnostic pitfalls in the diagnosis of Barrett’s esophagus and Barrett’s-related dysplasia.
• Discuss the more recently recognized variants of ulcerative colitis as well as some of the issues related to diagnosing dysplasia in the setting of IBD.
• Identify some of the major diagnostic issues in the most common colorectal polyps, including serrated polyps.
• Recognize the soft tissue tumor types which are prone to misdiagnosis.
• Use and interpret modern diagnostic techniques in the evaluation of soft tissue tumors.
• Explain the spectrum of benign spindle cell lesions in the breast.
• List the anatomic locations where HPV-related carcinomas typically occur.
• Describe the typical morphology of HPV-related oropharyngeal carcinoma.
• Name some of the newer gene fusions associated with salivary gland tumors.
• Recognize the most important diagnostic challenges in assessing prostate needle biopsies.
• Discuss diagnostic pitfalls in bladder biopsy and TURBT specimens.
• Name the entities associated with eosinophilic cytoplasm in renal tumors.
• Identify the biliary pattern of injury on liver biopsy.
• Recognize distinguishing features of steatosis from steatohepatitis.
• List the appropriate immunohistochemical workup of primary liver tumors.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
