Course Description: We are pleased to announce the 1st edition of our course entitled “Curso de Actualização
em Anatomia Patológica Centro Hospitalar do Porto 2012”. The course is organized by Centro Hospitalar
do Porto, Porto [Portugal] and shall provide the highest level of subspecialty instruction by a distinguished
faculty recognized in the fields of Anatomic Pathology. The educational event shall include 3 days of anatomic
pathology theoretical and practical sessions related to breast, salivary gland, lymphomas, bone and soft
tissues, cutaneous melanocytic lesions and pleuropulmonary and mediastinal areas, highlighting diagnostic
challenges, illustrating potential pitfalls and how to avoid them, and highlighting the role of complementary
molecular techniques and their application in patient care. The surgical pathology blocks will be anticipated
by corresponding clinical satellite conferences, giving emphasis on National contributions.
The greatest educational feedback is expected for community hospital physicians, in particular, pathologists
and residents. The course goal is to provide participants with practical and meaningful information relevant
to diagnostic task, prognostic assessment and therapy guidance of cancer patients. The course is intended
for a broad audience; however, it is primarily designed for pathologists devoting most of their efforts to
practical surgical pathology. Course organizers encourage the participation of anatomic pathology, general
and thoracic surgery, dermatology, ENT and oncology residents
