Histology and Histopathology Puns

Hi, I am taking pathology this semester. It will be a written exam with essay questions. We haven't had any laboratory experience in this module and it's completely lecture based. I don't know how to approach revision for this subject.

Thanks

NBMEs say I suck at those topics, I have no clue why I miss these silly questions but they are kinda hard cause I didn’t have the proper foundation.

Any help is appreciated

Trying to help my sister out

Potential Future pathA here, I was curious about the different types of work PathA’s do. I shadowed this week and the person I shadowed said their day was spent grossing. On a couple of cases, the Pathologist showed me some of the slides to see cases through to the next step, which was really cool.

Overall, would y’all say most jobs you’ve found are all grossing? And if so, do you find it getting redundant after awhile? I was really intrigued by all of it this week, but it was also my first week. Do you find that after working in the field for a few years that it feels like the same stuff over and over again? Or no, because although you may see five livers in a week they all may be coming in for different reasons and each case is different?

Thanks!

So I have a bell ringer exam for my anatomy course in 2 weeks. It covers all of histology (epithelia, connective tissue, muscle, neural tissue, etc.), the axial skeleton, and some basic neuroanatomy. I know there is a stickied thread containing resources but I was wondering if any of you have a favourite. Preferably one that shows both cartoons and real specimens (since we are tested using real specimens/slides).

Hi all! I am somewhat new here but wanted to share some cool cases I have seen!

Approximately 4-Y-O Ferret.
Liver.
Clinical Presentation: Presented for lethargy and several enlarged lymph nodes

Questions to answer

1. Description
2. Is it inflammation or neoplasia?
3. Name the disease (if you know it! The exact name is tricky!)

Hi everyone, I'm a sixth year EU IMG and hope to graduate in June 2020. I would like to specialise in Histopathology in the UK. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this so correct me if I'm wrong, but I was wondering how to get more publications or more audits done if there is anyway an EU medical student can get involved particularly in Histopathology preferentially? Thanks for reading and would appreciate any response.

This is a section from a canine kidney.

This has been solved by /u/flying_collarbone - answers have been posted at the bottom of this post.

QUESTIONS TO ANSWER (answers at bottom of post).

1. Describe what you see.
2. What is your Dx/DDxs?
3. What other stain would you use to confirm your Dx? NOTE: If you tell me the correct stain to use to confirm the Dx - I will actually post an image of this kidney stained with it ;)

• Note: as this case has been solved, an image of the same kidney stained with the special stain has been posted at the bottom with the answers.

ANSWERS (courtesy of /u/flying_collarbone)

1. Diffusely, glomeruli are expanded by a moderate to abundant amount of amorphous, eosinophilic and vitreous extracellular material. The same material can be observed in renal tubules.
2. MDx: Renal amyloidosis.
3. Special stain: Congo red. Image below.

The same kidney stained with Congo Red confirming renal amyloidosis. Amyloid proteins have been deposited in the glomeruli.

Histopathology of a skin mass on a dog. Post your answers to these questions below.

1. Describe what you see.
2. What is your diagnosis/DDx?
3. Any other stains to use?

ANSWERS (congratulations to /u/pepper_ronnie for the correct answers):

1. Large abnormal proliferation of round cells exhibiting marked levels of pleomorphism and anisokaryosis. Nuclei are mostly large, pale stained with prominent nucleoli (sometimes more than 1 in a nucleus). High mitotic rate with relatively high numbers of mitotic figures seen. Marked infiltration of eosinophils alongside round cell proliferation.
2. Mast Cell Tumour
3. Toluidine Blue - this stain will stain the mast cell granules, allowing for further grading of the MCT.

Low power magnification of the mass.

Higher power magnification of the tissue.

Another higher power magnification of the tissue.

Looking for some recommendations for condensed reviews for these topics. Obviously, they're broad subjects, but I'm hoping for more of a "This is _____. Here's what it looks like." for histology and a "Here's this region of the body. These are the most clinically relevant muscles, nerves, vessels, etc.'

I recognize these resources may not exist, but i figured I might as well ask in case someone else has had success with something. Any help is appreciated!
