The Anatomic Pathology Department examines approximately 2,000 surgical specimens and conducts approximately 100 autopsies each year. Visiting pathology residents or fellows share responsibility to performing work in these areas and actively participate in regularly scheduled general pediatric conferences and specific pediatric pathology conferences, including perinatology, pediatric neuropathology, cardiopathology, nephropathology and pulmonary pathology.
The Department offers a board-approved, one-year residency or fellowship in pediatric pathologic anatomy to anatomic pathology residents interested in pursuing a career in academic pediatric pathology or to general pathologists needing experience in pediatric pathology.
