@david_terrano @HENRYY_MD @et565 @Dr_Jukic @redsnapperpath @JenniferMcniff @IntSocDermpath Agree “bluer” is the best low power clue

@HENRYY_MD @et565 @david_terrano @Dr_Jukic @redsnapperpath Thanks for remembering! Pigmented Bowen’s. Taught to me by @JenniferMcniff and designated “stealth pigmented Bowen’s” by Mark Jacobsen and colleagues including Cynthia Chan and Raul Pisano Jr who presented this at @IntSocDermpath Cape Town a couple weeks before my talk. #dermpath

@JCandidoXavier @AJDP_Journal @gerardo_cazzato @Dermpathl @melanopath @SGottesmanMD @MarcelaSaebL @gonzadetoro @CakePath @DaruishMaged I do and I don’t. . . Top line/Comment: no grade. Microscopic: grade cytology (not degree of dysplasia or architectural disorder) #dermpath

@SGottesmanMD @MarcelaSaebL @HENRYY_MD @redsnapperpath @DrGeeONE @Janiranavarro @TristanRutland7 @mvmd0908 @Saroja_DeviG @Histopatolomon @janavarro_MD I found it notable that eosinophils are typical but not required in lesional #dermpath biopsies of DRESS.

@david_terrano @STEVENKOLKERMD I usually use a much smaller font size for it.

Is CD1a (MTB1) the best stain for leishmaniasis (after H&E)? Giemsa was negative in this case. #dermpath

@RACARR51 @lamcchang @SteveBillingsMD Difficult/impossible to capture exact same cells in serial recuts. A rare combination of interest/technology (spatial sequencing?)/funding might be required to definitively phenotype the cells in a decent number of cases #dermpath

#DERMPATH CONFIRMED: Langerhans cell collections (not eosinophils) in allergic contact dermatitis @lamcchang @SteveBillingsMD https://t.co/IUVzAsM28k https://t.co/MvBRIWoPYt

[Maxwell Fung, MD @FungMaxwell]

@RACARR51 @lamcchang @SteveBillingsMD Agree likely yes, many/most of these may not be resident intraepidermal Langerhans cells (LC1) but rather other dendritic cells recruited in (LC2, IDEC). But they are not distinguished by H&E or routinely available IHC. #dermpath

[Maxwell Fung, MD @FungMaxwell]

@david_terrano @RACARR51 @lamcchang @SteveBillingsMD Of the antigen-presenting type, I think so #dermpath
