  • Sleuths BEHIND the Scenes for PATHOLOGISTS, the UNUSUAL IS the USUAL
    ON THE COVER sleuths BEHIND THE scenes FOR PATHOLOGISTS, THE UNUSUAL IS THE USUAL. BY HOWARD BELL ennifer Boland’s path to pathology began during her sec- ond year of medical school at Washington University in St. Louis. Boland would take study breaks by looking at Jspecimen slides and images, learning to identify them. “Pathology is a visual science. I found it more enjoyable than memorizing notes,” she recalls. After a surgical pathology elective during her clinical rotations, she was hooked. “In medicine it can be hard to find the field you love,” says Boland, who is now a pathologist at Mayo Clinic. “I was lucky enough to find it.” Boland began practicing at Mayo three years ago, after com- pleting a pathology residency as well as pulmonary and surgical pathology fellowships there. She specializes in pulmonary and bone and soft-tissue pathology. Her particular expertise is in lung and chest sarcomas. “They’re a rare and interesting set of tumors,” she says. “Very few are diagnosed in this country each year.” Like many Mayo pathologists, she spends about half her time evaluating specimens from around the world for Mayo Medical Laboratories and the other half evaluating specimens from Mayo patients. Depending on case complexity, she evaluates around 25 to 50 specimens each day. “I like the mystery-solving of pathol- ogy,” she says. Boland is one of 332 pathologists who practice in Minnesota, according to the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice. Often thought of as either white-coated geeks hunched over microscopes or sexy swashbucklers who spend more time solving crimes than analyzing specimens (thanks to TV), pathologists 20 | MINNESOTA MEDICINE | OCTOBER 2014 ON THE COVER OCTOBER 2014 | MINNESOTA MEDICINE | 21 ON THE COVER are sleuths working behind the scenes to ogy, Boland says, adding that many don’t years for neuropathology).

  • Presentation Transcript
    Good morning everybody. I'm Juan Rosai, or better the digital image of Juan Rosai whose body is many miles away from here. I wish I was here with my friends, but circumstances beyond my control prevent me from doing this. You will have to do with my image and the images that you will see in a minute in this screen. Let me first thank Dr. Rachel Factor the director of the course for the kind invitation and Dr. Mary Bronner the chief of surgical pathology. The task that they gave me for the meeting was that of discussing the intraductal proliferative lesions of the breast, and that is what I'm going to do. But a disclaimer first. If you expect me to show you to go over the minute criteria that I use to distinguish one proliferative type of breast tissue from the other, you will be disappointed. Those you can find in many textbooks and monographs, some of which I will show. I'm going to discuss instead this field from a holistic point of view, from a historic point of view, describing how the changes and the constant change over the years, who are the main players, what influence they have in these changes, where we are now, and what can we expect in the future. Well these lesions have been around for a long time and the various names that have been given to them is a good reflection on how difficult, how mysterious, how challenging they were to the pathologists who examined them.

  • Juan Rosai, ‘Master of the Neoplastic Universe’
    Juan Rosai, ‘master of the neoplastic universe’ Michael C. Dugan, MD September 2020—Great mentors, once passed, live on in the ideas, memories, and dreams of their students. For those like me, lucky enough to have been a student of Juan Rosai, MD, and to have heard him speak, the experience will never be forgotten. Thus it is that when I learned of his death in July, at age 79, I could recall descriptions and notations, questions and curiosities, inquisitive and piercing words spoken in a distinctive Italian-Argentinian voice that would usher us—me and a handful of other residents at Yale New Haven Hospital from 1988 to 1991, and others before and after—into the world of surgical pathology. Dr. Rosai was a giant in pathology, a director of anatomic pathology at Yale, a chair of pathology at Memorial Sloan Kettering, and both preceded by his time at the University of Minnesota. He studied surgical pathology under Lauren Ackerman, MD, during the final year of Dr. Ackerman’s tenure at Washington University in St. Louis. It was Dr. Rosai who carried Ackerman’s Surgical Pathology forward from the fifth to its 10th edition. His ninth and 10th editions were published as Rosai and Ackerman’s Surgical Pathology. But much of the fifth and nearly all of the sixth, seventh, and eighth editions, without his name in the title, were written largely by Dr. Rosai. The 10th edition, published in 2011, filled more than 2,600 pages of text. His scope of topics was not limited by the common clinical subspecialties—GI, GU, breast, lung, and others.
