Medical Audit for Improvement of Patient Care
Abstract
Pathology service is the backbone of health services to provide evidence based quality services to the people. Like other pathological tools, histopathology is essential for accurate diagnosis, and treatment.
In this issue of the journal Pabitra Bista et al has written the Histo-morphological spectrum of central nervous system disease where Neoplastic lesions has predominated 82.0% were primary nervous system neoplasm out of which 20 cases were found to be brain metastasis. The article does not explain about the types of surgery like stereotactic biopsy or debulking procedure, subtotal resection, or maximal safe resection.
It is vital that high standards of histopathology reporting are achieved and maintained, with appropriate measures being introduced towards improvement where required.1 The clinoco- radiological findings and histopathiological correlation is required to establish the grade and stage of any tumor. It gives the significant meaning in choosing the treatment modality and prognosis of that disease. It is the responsibility of the surgeon to provide every possible clinical detail regarding any biopsy specimen to the histopathologist.
