Both patients had white intraretinal lesions, which became confluent. One of the cases had a depressed cell-mediated immunity; both patients ultimately died after a prolonged illness. In one patient cytomegalovirus was cultured from a vitreous biopsy. Autopsy revealed disseminated cytomegalovirus in both patients. Widespread retinal necrosis was evident, with typical nuclear and cytoplasmic inclusions of cytomegalovirus. Electron microscopy showed herpes virus, while immunoperoxidase techniques showed cytomegalovirus. The altered cell-mediated response present in homosexual patients may be responsible for the clinical syndromes of Kaposi's sarcoma and opportunistic infection by Pneumocystis carinii, herpes simplex, or cytomegalovirus. http://bjo.bmj.com/ Retinal involvement in adult cytomegalic inclusion manifestations of the syndrome include the 'gay disease (CID) is usually associated with the con- bowel syndrome9 and Kaposi's sarcoma.

  • DUKE UNIVERSITY School of Medicine Pathologists' Assistant
    DUKE UNIVERSITY School of Medicine Pathologists’ Assistant Program Department of Pathology Academic Programs The Department of Pathology at Duke University offers a wide array of training programs to fit individual requirements and goals. The Residency Training program is an ACGME approved program and is available as an Anatomic Pathology/Clinical Pathology combined program, a shorter Anatomic Pathology only program, or an Anatomic Pathology/Neuropathology program. Subspecialty fellowships in Cytopathology, Dermatopathology, Hematopathology, Medical Microbiology, and Neuropathology are also ACGME approved. These programs provide the highest quality of graduate medical education by drawing on the depth and breadth of faculty expertise in the Department in all aspects of anatomic and clinical pathology and the availability of a wide variety of often complex clinical cases seen at Duke University Health System. For medical students interested in a career in Pathology pre-doctoral fellowships, internships and externships are available. Research Training in Experimental pathology can be obtained through Pre- and postdoctoral fellowships of one to five years. All pre-doctoral fellows are candidates for the Ph.D. degree in pathology. The Ph.D. is optional in postdoctoral programs, which provide didactic and research training in various aspects of modern experimental pathology. A two year NAACLS accredited Pathologists’ Assistant Program leads to a Master of Health Science degree, certifies graduates to sit for the ASCP Board of Certification examination, and leads to exciting career opportunities in a variety of anatomic pathology laboratory settings. Pathologists’ assistants are analogous to physician assistants, but with highly specialized training in autopsy and surgical pathology. This profession was pioneered in the Duke Department of Pathology 50 years ago, and is one of only twelve such programs in existence today.

  • ASCLD Crime Lab Minute April 30, 2018
    ASCLD Crime Lab Minute April 30, 2018 Dear Colleagues, This year has been a very busy one for our Board of Directors. We are anxious to see you all in Atlanta so we can meet personally to share our progress and discuss challenges and direction for this upcoming year. In addition to the information posted this last week (Membership Candidates, Board Candidates and Bylaw changes), we have additional information to share to keep you up to speed with the rapidly evolving field of forensics. Our meeting is that opportunity to have everything forensic brought to you for one stop shopping under one roof. If that sounds like a bit of a sales pitch, it is. Our planning committee has done an extraordinary job this year so we are very exciting about what will prove to be an outstanding meeting. Our Board has approved several new administrative documents we feel will add to our arsenal of resources found on the ASCLD webpage. These new or revised documents include a Code of Professional Responsibility Model Policy, a Statement of Principles, an updated Code of Ethics including a mechanism to make an ethics complaint including a fillable Complaint Form, and an update to our Guidelines for Forensic Laboratory Management. We are very proud of the work that has been done to create and update these new documents, so please check them out. Fillable complaint form https://www.ascld.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Fillable-Complaint- form.pdf Code of Ethics https://www.ascld.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Code-of-Ethics.pdf Statement of Principles https://www.ascld.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/ASCLD-STATEMENT- OF-PRINCIPLES.pdf Model Policy – Code of Professional Responsibility https://www.ascld.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/ASCLD-MODEL- POLICY_ProfResponsibility.pdf We take our representation of your labs and our field very seriously, so we deeply value your opinion and input.

  • Head and Neck Specimens
    Head and Neck Specimens DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL COMMENTS: All specimens, even of the same type, are unique, and this is particularly true for Head and Neck specimens. Thus, while this outline is meant to provide a guide to grossing the common head and neck specimens at UAB, it is not all inclusive and will not capture every scenario. Thus, careful assessment of each specimen with some modifications of what follows below may be needed on a case by case basis. When in doubt always consult with a PA, Chief/Senior Resident and/or the Head and Neck Pathologist on service. Specimen-derived margin: A margin taken directly from the main specimen-either a shave or radial. Tumor bed margin: A piece of tissue taken from the operative bed after the main specimen has been resected. This entire piece of tissue may represent the margin, or it could also be specifically oriented-check specimen label/requisition for any further orientation. Margin status as determined from specimen-derived margins has been shown to better predict local recurrence as compared to tumor bed margins (Surgical Pathology Clinics. 2017; 10: 1-14). At UAB, both methods are employed. Note to grosser: However, even if a surgeon submits tumor bed margins separately, the grosser must still sample the specimen margins. Figure 1: Shave vs radial (perpendicular) margin: Figure adapted from Surgical Pathology Clinics. 2017; 10: 1-14): Red lines: radial section (perpendicular) of margin Blue line: Shave of margin Comparison of shave and radial margins (Table 1 from Chiosea SI.

  • Conflicts of Interest Between Death Investigators and Prosecutors
    American University Washington College of Law Washington College of Law Research Paper No. 2019- A DEADLY PAIR: CONFLICTS OF INTEREST BETWEEN DEATH INVESTIGATORS AND PROSECUTORS Ira P. Robbins This paper can be downloaded without charge from The Social Science Research Network Electronic Paper Collection Electronic copy available at: https://ssrn.com/abstract=3329559 A Deadly Pair: Conflicts of Interest Between Death Investigators and Prosecutors IRA P. ROBBINS* As an inevitable fact of life, death is a mysterious specter looming over us as we move through the world. It consumes our literature, religions, and social dialogues—the death of a prominent figure can change policies and perceptions about our approaches to many problems. Given death’s significance, it is reasonable to try to understand causes of death generally, as well as on a case-by-case basis. While scholars and mourners attempt to answer the philosophical questions about death, the practical and technical questions are typically answered by death investigators. Death investigators attempt to decipher the circumstances surrounding suspicious and unexplained deaths to provide solace to family members and information to law enforcement services to help them determine whether further investigative steps are necessary. But while the answers provided by death investigators may provide some direction, in many ways the death investigation system actually inhibits the pursuit of justice. The current death investigation system creates conflicts of interest between death investigators and prosecutors. Death investigators and prosecutors are often organized under the same governmental structure or even within the same offices. This close association between the two systems results in patterns of relationships that disadvantage defense teams and prevent equal access to death investigation resources.

    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF MISSISSIPPI NO. 2018-CA-01586-SCT EDDIE LEE HOWARD, JR. v. STATE OF MISSISSIPPI DATE OF JUDGMENT: 10/10/2018 TRIAL JUDGE: HON. LEE J. HOWARD TRIAL COURT ATTORNEYS: LOUWLYNN VANZETTA WILLIAMS ROBERT M. RYAN WILLIAM TUCKER CARRINGTON WILLIAM McLEOD McINTOSH VANESSA POTKIN M. CHRIS FABRICANT PETER J. NEUFELD JASON L. DAVIS BRAD ALAN SMITH COURT FROM WHICH APPEALED: LOWNDES COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT ATTORNEY FOR APPELLANT: WILLIAM TUCKER CARRINGTON ATTORNEYS FOR APPELLEE: OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL BY: ASHLEY LAUREN SULSER LADONNA C. HOLLAND LYNN FITCH CANDICE LEIGH RUCKER NATURE OF THE CASE: CIVIL-POST-CONVICTION RELIEF DISPOSITION: REVERSED, RENDERED, AND REMANDED - 08/27/2020 MOTION FOR REHEARING FILED: MANDATE ISSUED: EN BANC. ISHEE, JUSTICE, FOR THE COURT: ¶1. Eddie Howard was sentenced to death for the rape and murder of eighty-four-year-old Georgia Kemp. Howard was tied to the crime by Dr. Michael West, who identified Howard as the source of bite marks on Kemp’s body. At trial, Dr. West testified that he was a member of the American Board of Forensic Odontology (ABFO) and that he had followed its guidelines in rendering his opinion. But since Howard’s trial, the ABFO has revised those guidelines to prohibit such testimony, and this reflects a new scientific understanding that an individual perpetrator cannot be reliably identified through bite-mark comparison. This, along with new DNA testing and the paucity of other evidence linking Howard to the murder, requires the Court to conclude that Howard is entitled to a new trial. We reverse the trial court’s denial of postconviction relief and vacate Howard’s conviction and sentence.

  • 1 APPENDIX 5 PATHOLOGY 1. Handling and Gross Examination Of
    APPENDIX 5 PATHOLOGY 1. Handling and gross examination of gastrointestinal and pancreatic NETs Specimen handling and gross examination should be performed according to the Royal College of Pathologists (RCPath) guidelines for carcinoma of these organs[1- 3] and the ENETS guidance.[4] 1.1 Specimen fixation The resection specimen should, when possible, be placed on ice immediately after removal and brought as soon as possible, fresh and unopened, to the pathology laboratory, where it should be placed in a large volume of formalin-based fixative. 1.2 Specimen dissection As outlined in the RCPath dataset for the reporting of gastroenteropancreatic NETs,[5] specimen dissection should be performed according to the RCPath guidelines for carcinomas of the respective organs.[1-3] In general, dissection of specimens from the tubular gastrointestinal tract is based on serial slicing of the intact, tumour-bearing segment of the specimen. Dissection of pancreatoduodenectomy specimens is based on axial slicing of the intact specimen. Non-peritonealised resection margins in colorectal surgical specimens or the circumferential (‘dissected’) margins of pancreatic specimens are painted with suitable markers to enable subsequent identification of margin involvement. 1.3 Macroscopic assessment The core macroscopic data to be included in the pathology report are the specimen type; the site and three-dimensional size of the tumour; extension of the tumour within the primary organ and into neighbouring tissues; relationship to other key anatomical structures and the specimen resection margins; and the number and site of lymph nodes retrieved from the main specimen and/or from separately submitted samples.[4, 5] 1 1.4 Tissue sampling Representative blocks should be taken from the tumour to demonstrate the deepest point of invasion and/or involvement of adjacent tissues or anatomical structures relevant to WHO classification[6, 7] and TNM staging schemes.[8-10] The closest transection and/or circumferential (‘dissected’) margin(s) should be sampled.
