October 2026

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

October 2026—Evidence-based guidelines for platelet use help prevent unnecessary transfusion and inform better transfusion practice. Platelet transfusions can be used to prophylactically prevent bleeding or treat bleeding.

Anatomic pathology selected abstracts

October 2026—Primary endometrial carcinomas with somatically-derived yolk sac tumor components are rare. Therefore, the authors performed detailed clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular analyses to better understand and address these entities.

Pathology informatics selected abstracts

October 2026—Artificial intelligence studies in the realm of pathology increasingly demonstrate the impressive diagnostic performance of AI, but it is also worthwhile to understand what happens when these tools are incorporated into routine clinical practice. To this end, the authors evaluated the validation, implementation, and real-world impact of an AI–assisted decision-support tool for prostate needle biopsies within a fully digital pathology practice.

Molecular pathology selected abstracts

October 2026—Bladder cancer is diagnosed and monitored using cystoscopy, an invasive procedure in which a camera is inserted into the bladder. Because this type of cancer recurs in more than 50 percent of patients within five years, such patients require repeated cystoscopies for the rest of their lives, creating significant discomfort, cost, and clinical burden.

Q&A column
