I remember calling SurgPath, "Cut N' Strut"!! At one time I did ALL the gross pathology, all the surgical exams, AND was on the call list for autopsies. This particular hospital performed 22K surgicals a year, or about 150 day!...so , consider the complex cases like colon resections and radical mastectomy's sitting in acid formalin for a lymph-node dissection BEFORE the histotechs left for the day, all those radical hysterectomy's, hypertrophic prostates with those gazillion cassettes, the usual gall bladders, UHGG! Those melonomas with all those inked margins and a gazillion more cassetes, then YOU STILL HAD TO PERFORM THE AUTOPSIES TOO!!
Boy Cyto, I really miss that grind!! NOT!!!
We also had to teach residents from other specialties going thru on rotations, I made videos and just told 'em to go watch and quizz later, unless of course the resident was a cutie!!
