Anatomic Pathology Selected Abstracts, 10/13

October 2013—Acellular mucin in rectal cancer patients showing pathologic complete response to preoperative chemoradiotherapy; Association between p16 expression and human papillomavirus in urinary bladder squamous cell carcinoma; Immunohistochemical signature comprising PTEN, MYC, and Ki-67 and disease progression in prostate cancer; Preoperative BRAF(V600E) mutation screening: likelihood of altering initial surgery for indeterminate thyroid nodules; Claudin expression in high-grade invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast; Interobserver agreement in assessing lung cancer: H&E diagnostic reproducibility for non-small cell lung carcinoma

Molecular testing platforms a land of plenty

October 2013—If you’ve ever seen what happens when someone accidentally puts regular liquid soap in a dishwasher, you’ll have a good mental image of just how vigorously the automated molecular testing market is bubbling over with new assays. HCV genotyping, rifampin resistance, group A Streptococcus—vendors are pouring these and many other tests into a market that, by all accounts, is more than eager for them.

Letters, 10/13

October 2013—A CAP-accredited, multi-department laboratory, with 25 well-trained employees. A full-time staff of four American Board of Pathology-certified pathologists, including one with cytopathology boards. A rigorous quality assurance program involving clinicians and pathologists. An integrated electronic medical record system. Constant communication between administrative, technical, and clinical staff.

October 2013—Too much of a good thing can be wonderful,” Mae West famously said. And some feel our culture of excess reflects that value. Perhaps as a reaction there has been a surge of interest recently in the embrace of “enough” as a worthwhile goal. But when it comes to precise measurement of glucose values in the intensive care unit, the often-warring needs for speed and accuracy make the issue a critical matter of patient care. For point-of-care glucose testing in the ICU, how much precision is “enough”?
