USCAP Lower Female Genital Tract Pathology 2025 (Videos + Slides)

Course Description
Surgical pathologists practicing gynecologic pathology work in vastly different practice settings throughout the world. Consistent terminology and criteria for the diagnosis of entities is critical to ensure clear and effective communication, facilitating optimal prognostication and treatment. In recent years, advances in multiple areas of gynecologic pathology have changed our collective understanding of a variety of diseases. Many of these changes were reflected in the recent 2020 WHO Classification of Tumors of the Gynecologic Tract, which included changes in both terminology and diagnostic criteria. In addition, the evolution of targeted therapy has led to increasing requests for tumor biomarker testing, which differs by tumor location and histotype. This multimodal course will provide attendees with a comprehensive update in the practice of gynecologic pathology.

Target Audience
