About this event
Parapharyngeal space masses can present significant diagnostic challenges because of their deep location, varied clinical presentation, and broad pathological spectrum.
In this pathology-led anniversary lecture, Dr. Asitava Mondal will take participants through a practical diagnostic approach to these lesions, integrating clinical picture, imaging findings, cytology, cell block, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry.
The session will emphasize clinicopathologic correlation and differential diagnosis, with clinical and imaging features used to support and narrow the pathological interpretation.
This lecture is especially relevant for oral pathologists, general pathologists interested in head and neck pathology, and postgraduate students. It will also be useful for colleagues in oral medicine, oral radiology, and oral surgery who are interested in diagnostic correlation.
