The Diagnostic Table – Slide 360 | Malignant Connective Tissue Tumours of the Oral and Maxillofacial Region

Malignant connective tissue tumours of the oral and maxillofacial region can pose significant diagnostic challenges, especially because they are relatively rare at these sites and have diverse histopathological appearances.

In this edition of The Diagnostic Table – SLIDE 360, Dr Aadithya B. Urs, Senior Professor and Head, Department of Oral Pathology, Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences, New Delhi, will guide participants through challenging cases using a systematic, step-by-step diagnostic approach.

Following the established Slide 360 format, participants will receive selected case images for independent study before the session, allowing them to consider the morphological findings and formulate their differential diagnoses.

During the expert-led discussion, participants will explore the diagnostic reasoning behind each case and the approach to reaching a diagnosis.

What will you gain?

• Experience analysing challenging malignant connective tissue tumours.
• A structured approach to developing and refining differential diagnoses.
• Insights into expert diagnostic reasoning through case-based discussion.
• An opportunity to compare your independent assessment with the expert’s approach.

Who should attend?

Oral pathology postgraduate students, recent graduates, practising oral pathologists and specialists interested in the diagnosis of oral and maxillofacial lesions.
