First : Questions

Second (introduction) : Pathology is the study of the

nature and causes of diseases it underpins every

aspect of medicine , from diagnosis to monitoring , and

vital for research .

Third : The process

picture that summarize process

• First The biopsy was taken by the surgeon .

• After taking the specimen these are the steps

done in lab.

1- Gross specimen examination:

the pathologist will examine the specimen , measuring

its size , describing its color and texture and determining

if any masses are present .

2- Fixation : the process where tissues are treated with agents

that retard the alteration of tissues , meanwhile normal

anatomical structures is maintained

3-Processing: remove the water from the tissues and replace

with a medium that soldufies to allow thin sections to be cut

3-Tissue embedding: the processed tissue is then embedded

in hot wax to form a tissue block . When the block hardens , it

is stable at room temp. indefinitely

4-Sectioning : is cutting the specimen in sections using a

microtome ( so the sections are very thin) depending on the type

of microscope that we will use the instrument used to cut the

specimen will be different

5- Mounting: is placing the specimen on microscope slides (glass

slides )

6- Staining the section :provides visual contrast

and may help identifying specific tissue

components

So the final diagnosis of this case was ( Epithlial-

myoepithlial carcinoma)

In summary :If Pathologists didn't exist ,

where would the answers come from ?

So, without pathologists , any answers

found would be questionable .
