  1. Excited to have a new article out! This is a novel corneal dystrophy with a story going back at least 15 years

    Autosomal dominant stromal corneal dystrophy associated with a SPARCL1 missense variant by Braddock et al. Well done, team!

  3. Interested in eye pathology? I'm hosting the British Association for Ophthalmic Pathology meeting in London UK on 21-22 March. Challenging cases, peer discussion and a special joint session with Bowman Club, the corneal specialist society. Attended by pathologists, ophthalmologists and scientists.

    Boosts appreciated! #EyePath #MedMastodon @pathology

  4. In December's #EyePath session, we'll look at the #cornea. Here's one of the cases we'll discuss, where the patient had a treatment procedure before finally needing a corneal graft.

  5. Here's some conjunctiva with a benign subepithelial naevus. The cluster of mast cells (and plasma cell hiding among them) caught my eye.

    Do you reckon #MastCellMonday will catch on as a hashtag? 🤔

  7. Not a #MastoPrompt story, but here's what #magenta looks like on a histology slide 😍 .

    The stain is periodic acid-Schiff (that's per-iodic, related to iodine and not period-ic related to time). PAS is typically used to stain mucin, fungi and (my commonest use) basement membrane.

    The blobby structures here are drusen, which I view as accumulations of junk beneath the retina, often related to ageing. #EyePath

  8. Bookings are open for the British Association for Ophthalmic Pathology 2024 meeting, the friendliest #EyePath event of the year!

  11. I don't expect #MitosisMonday will catch on as a hashtag, but have a few anyway - including a tripolar one.

  12. Since my last #MedEd #EyePath image (pair of images, even 👀 ) didn't get much attention, let's try something more mainstream.

    From where I'm sitting, there can be only one (diagnosis).

  13. Here's a seasonal image of a #cytology #EyePath slide, showing the striking feature of ferning. I'm no expert in the phenomenon (rarely see it in my practice), but it reflects the protein/salt composition of the fluid, in this case a vitreous aspirate. Rather pretty 😊
