This 2023 Surgical Pathology Update activity has been designed to provide a thorough review of common topics encountered by practicing surgical pathologists, including gastrointestinal, genitourinary, gynecologic, breast, soft tissue, and dermatopathology. Content within this activity provides a thorough update and a comprehensive overview of the most important diagnostic features which allow pathologists to make accurate diagnoses, as well as important clues as to how to avoid the most common diagnostic pitfalls in each of these subspecialty areas. Faculty also discuss the use of ancillary diagnostic techniques including immunohistochemistry and molecular diagnostics, which assist the pathologist in rendering an accurate diagnosis
