Anatomic and Clinical Pathology Needs in Transgender Care

Pricing: Member: $60.00 NonMember: $78.00 Junior Member: $15.00


Intended Audience
This activity is intended for pathologists with one-to-five years in practice who are seeking to improve patient care for the transgender population.


Description
Medical and surgical gender-affirmation therapies for transgender people have introduced a new spectrum to pathology practices. Sex hormones influence both anatomic and clinical pathology, which can complicate result interpretation for surgical specimens, chemistry, hematology, and microbiology. This activity provides tools to help you successfully serve the transgender population and address the needs of your clinical colleagues in this regard.

This activity was originally presented at CAP23 as part of the activity Anatomic and Clinical Pathology Needs in Transgender Care.

Objectives
After completing this activity, you should be able to:

  1. Compare sex and gender.
  2. List common tests that need sex-specific reference intervals.
  3. Define reference intervals appropriate for transgender people.
  4. Illustrate the histology changes that are encountered in specimens obtained following gender affirming therapy.
