This session is designed to improve understanding and application of recent updates to synoptic pathology reporting protocols such as the latest Reporting Template for Reporting Results of Biomarker Testing of Specimens from Patients with Carcinoma of the Breast. These changes reflect evolving clinical guidelines that directly influence diagnostic accuracy and treatment selection in breast cancer care.
Webinar presenters Thaer Khoury, MD, FCAP, Chair, Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Cente, and Colin Murphy, CEO of mTuitive.
Moderated by: Bob McGonnagle, Publisher, CAP TODAY

In this webinar, we will examine how immune recognition after allogeneic HCT can influence leukemia relapse and disease progression. The session will highlight the clinical relevance of HLA loss of heterozygosity (LOH), approaches used for its detection, and how LOH findings may support transplant strategies, including considerations for donor selection in subsequent transplantation.
Webinar presenter Alberto Cardoso Martins Lima, PhD, Clinical consulting scientist in histocompatibility,
specializing in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) at IGEN/AFIP São Paulo and CHC/UFPR in Curitiba, Brazil

August 2021—Pseudocarcinomatous squamous hyperplasia within the bone is uncommon and closely mimics well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. It arises from cutaneous or mucosal surfaces and grows directly into the bone. The authors conducted a study in which they analyzed a series of 31 pseudocarcinomatous squamous hyperplasia (PSH) cases and discussed the clinicopathologic features that distinguished PSH from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
August 2021—The primary target organ of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is the lung. The virus invades endothelial cells through angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors, which are found throughout the body. There are multiple markers of abnormal coagulation and hemostasis activation in patients with COVID-19 that signal a risk of thromboembolic complications.
August 2021—Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder is a rare, progressive condition affecting a person’s ability to discriminate speech despite being able to respond to sound. The condition is often sporadic and diagnosed in patients with no family history of hearing loss, but it can be heritable.

Q. Is it necessary for a lab to report a corrected sodium level when the glucose level is really high? Studies show pseudohyponatremia can occur due to hyperglycemia. How common is this, and how do we decide which correction factor to use? Is it possible that this is easily overlooked by providers due to comorbidities in patients? Some references say there is a need to correct glucose for each 100 mg/dL increase above 400 mg/dL glucose. Read answer.
Q. Payers are limiting reimbursement for PCR respiratory panels to a small subset of tested pathogens and only with certain indications. Many panels available from manufacturers test for more pathogens than can be reimbursed. What is the best approach to deal with this issue? Should large respiratory panels no longer be offered? If a large panel is performed, should only a limited number of pathogen results be reported, even though the entire panel was performed? Should the entire panel be reported but only a limited number of pathogens billed for? Read answer.
August 2021—The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology released last month the United States Core Data for Interoperability version two, or USCDI v2, a standardized set of health data classes and constituent data elements for nationwide, interoperable health information exchange.
August 2021—The Association for Molecular Pathology on July 29 called on all relevant individuals and organizations to support and facilitate the sharing of molecular genetic variant data and offered recommendations.
