Pitfalls in Diagnostic Hematopathology

The complexity involved in the histological interpretation of lymph nodes and other lymphoid tissue specimens suspected of harbouring lymphoma is underappreciated [...]  there remains a need to maintain skills in smaller district hospitals, to ensure lymphoma recognition in unexpected circumstances, to permit clinically useful interim diagnoses when needed urgently and to sustain training in haematopathology among junior pathologists. In this review a range of potential pitfalls in lymphoid tissue pathology is outlined, arising at all stages from specimen preparation to reporting.
