Both MRI and DRE are imperfect. but should a large anterior tumour with negative DRE be staged as T1c? We had outlined some issues with prostate TNM8 in this 2019 paper: bjui-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bj…

LN count is an inaccurate measure of surgical technique. LN tissue in additional fat may represent another LN or just part of a previously submitted and counted macroscopically identified LN. Particular issue in fatty pelvic LNs: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30604878/

What’s the overarching issues in #BladderCancer Diagnosis &Management? We are pleased to share our article just released from Eur Uro@EUplatinum doi.org/10.1016/j.euru… All 4 Working Group papers @IntSocUropath were published in Jan 2024 @AJSPjournal journals.lww.com/ajsp/toc/2024/…
Don't know about the world but addressing excessive tissue sampling could certainly save struggling labs and improve report turnaround times. Win win scenario. Good for pathologists, laboratories, healthcare systems and most important of all, patients.

Agree. Unfortunately an under-valued and rather neglected area of histopathology.

@MuraliV72899596 @saharimranhamid I encourage lab team to call me if they are thinking of taking more than 4 blocks. It's a pleasure team working
@MuraliV72899596 I always remember: Cons Histo from Ethiopia to me dissecting a thyroid: “clinically multinodular goitre (MNG), macroscopically MNG after careful dissection - why on earth are you taking any blocks? Take a photo if you need evidence”.
@MuraliV72899596 I've posted previously. In Malawi one block per case. Thin slithers can easily sample 10 very carefully chosen macroscopically examined areas in one normal block. Please help save us from stupid generic guidelines. More quality less quantity. Marginal gains approach = gold medal
Tissue will always be the issue
Don't know about the world but addressing excessive tissue sampling could certainly save struggling labs and improve report turnaround times. Win win scenario. Good for pathologists, laboratories, healthcare systems and most important of all, patients.
A huge issue in this part of the world! And i’m convinced that we could do just as well with fewer blocks.
