HISTOPATHOLOGY

preparation, processing and staining of tissue sections of tissue sections for microscopic study to be interpreted by the pathologist

HISTOTECHNIQUES

✓ study of disease at the tissue level

HISTOPATHOLOGY

examined to determine the cause of death

Autopsy Materials:

removal of cells from the area of abnormality
➢ considered as the simplest and least invasive method of collecting biopsy specimens

➢ method of collection for fluid-containing tumors

FINE NEEDLE ASPIRATION

removal of cells and small amount of surrounding tissue

CORE NEEDLE BIOSY

removal of cells with more surrounding tissue

INCISIONAL BIOPSY

EXCISIONAL BIOPSY

removal of the entire area in question
➢ Ensure complete removal of the lesion

➢ Confirm that the diagnosis is correct

OUTSIDE

removal of 3 to 4 mm cylindrical core of tissue samples
➢ small: 2mm; large: 4mm

➢ lesion should be at the center

PUNCH BIOPSY

removal of small fragments of tissue from a surface G.

SHAVE BIOPSY

removal of tissue or growths from body cavities

CURETTINGS

STORAGE 1. Specimen

1 month to 1 year

STORAGE 2. Tissue Blocks

3 to 10 years

STORAGE 3. Slides:

Indefinite

STORAGE 4. Records (request and result forms):

Permanent

FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED IN CHOOSING A METHOD

1. Structural and chemical components to be studied
2. Nature and amount of sample to be evaluated

METHODS OF PREPARATION AND EXAMINATION
A. Diagnostic Laboratories

1. FRESH TISSUE EXAMINATION

DISADVANTAGES

✓ Examined as stained or unstained

✓ Anatomical relationship is destroyed

TEASING

✓ Tissue (<1mm) is sandwiched between two slides

SQUASH

▪ for cytological studies, especially for the diagnosis of cancer
▪ for sections or sediments

▪ performed using a wire loop, applicator stick or another slide

SMEARING

Uniform distribution in a direct or zigzag manner

Streaking

✓ Thick or mucoid specimens
✓ Teasing on a slide

✓ Maintains intercellular relationship

Spreading

For the preparation of blood and bone marrow smears

Pull-Apart

✓ One side of a slide is allowed to touch a surface of the sample
✓ Intercellular relationship is maintained

Touch
Preparation

✓ Prepared using freezing microtome or cryostat
✓ For rapid diagnosis

✓ For delicate specimens

FIXATION

Two Purposes of Fixation
-PRIMARY PURPOSE

1. Preservation

Two Purposes of Fixation
-SECONDARY PURPOSE

2. Protection

✓ capable of forming cross-links between proteins

Fixative agents

Types of Fixative: becomes part of the cross-link itself

1. Additive

Types of Fixative: facilitates the removal of water in order for cross-links to form

2. Non-Additive

• Increase in size and thickness
• Presence of mucus

• Presence of fats

• Presence of blood

• Decrease in temperature

FIXATIVES ENHANCED BY:
