October 2021—Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the anal canal and is strongly associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Characteristic genomic alterations have been identified in anal squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC), but their clinical significance and correlation with HPV status, pathologic features, and immunohistochemical markers are not well established.

Molecular pathology selected abstracts

October 2021—Transthyretin amyloidosis, also known as ATTR amyloidosis, occurs secondary to accumulation of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) protein in the form of amyloid fibrils. The acquired form of ATTR amyloidosis is referred to as wild-type ATTR amyloidosis.

Q&A column

October 2021
Q. After naloxone is administered, are opiates still detectable in the body? If so, for how long and in what quantities? Read answer.

Q. Why do proficiency testing specimen results for common immunoassay analytes sometimes vary greatly with different instrument manufacturers and their reagents? Does that mean the patient’s results for the same specimen could vary greatly based on the instrument used? If so, is this acceptable? Wouldn’t the variation in results confuse the clinician and patient? Read answer.

From the President’s Desk: Looking back, looking ahead

September 2021—As my term as president of the College of American Pathologists comes to a close, I am both honored and humbled to have been selected by my peers for this position. Over the past two years our organization was presented with the greatest challenge we have ever faced. Because of our phenomenal members and staff, we have accomplished great things even though we worked under the most adverse conditions. We, yet again, backed a horse named CAP. It broke out of the gate well and had to weave through traffic on a bad track, but we are ahead. We made the right bet and I am so, so lucky to have been chosen to be the jockey for this race. Looking back, the COVID-19 pandemic presented our community with relatively sudden and profound changes resulting in a tremendous number of challenges. It has dominated our lives. We should be proud of our accomplishments. We have not only put out many fires and sewn up deep wounds, but we have also set up the College and our fellows for continued success so that we will be able to keep serving our patients well.
