Description
This 1-year ACGME-accredited program offers an in depth-training in gynecological surgical pathology. The program combines advanced training in diagnostic gynecologic pathology with clinical research and teaching opportunities. The two main hospitals (EUH and EUHM) combined accession close to 7,000 gynecologic surgical specimens, 12,000 gynecologic cytology specimens, between 100-130 gynecologic expert consultation cases and 100 intraoperative consultations in gynecologic surgeries per year, which provide an excellent in depth training in medical knowledge, patient care skills and expertise applicable to gynecologic pathology. Additionally, fellows participate in collaborative research projects with other departments. Presentation of cases at a variety of clinicopathological conferences such as gynecologic oncology tumor boards, colposcopy conferences, and reproductive endocrinology and infertility sessions offer opportunities for teaching and collaboration with clinical colleagues.
Two months of elective rotation is offered as additional training in specialties related to gynecologic oncology and reproductive medicine, including placental pathology, gynecologic cytology, clinical observerships in gynecologic oncology (surgery, outpatient clinic and radiation oncology) and within the department of reproductive endocrinology and infertility.
The department of Pathology at Emory University has demonstrated strong commitment to postgraduate pathology training for years. The core faculty (Drs. Hanley, Mosunjac, Turashvili and Genega) are all experienced pathologists with additional expertise and/or fellowship training in gynecologic pathology and recipients of multiple teaching awards from pathology residents during their carrier.
