Abstract

Purpose: Multidisciplinary tumor boards (TB) are the standard for discussing complex head and neck cancer cases. During TB, imaging and microscopic pathology is reviewed, but there is typically no visualization of the resected cancer.

Methods: A pilot study was conducted to investigate the utility of visual pathology reports at weekly TB for 10 consecutive weeks. Faculty-level participants completed a pre-survey and post-survey to assess understanding of resected cancer specimens.

Results: Providers (n = 25) across seven medical specialties completed pre-survey and post-survey. Following intervention, providers reported significant improvement in understanding of anatomic orientation of the specimen and sites of margin sampling (mean 47.4-96.1, p < 0.001), ability to locate the site of a positive margin (mean 69.5-91.1, p < 0.001), and confidence in treatment plans created (mean 69.5-89.2, p < 0.001) with the addition of visual pathology reports.

Conclusions: Visual pathology reports improve provider understanding of resected cancer specimens at multidisciplinary TB.

可视化病理报告改善多学科头颈部肿瘤委员会的协作。

目的：多学科肿瘤委员会（TB）是讨论复杂头颈部癌症病例的标准。在 TB 期间，会对影像学和显微镜病理学进行审查，但通常不会对切除的癌症进行可视化检查：我们开展了一项试点研究，以调查连续 10 周的每周 TB 上可视病理报告的实用性。教职员工级别的参与者完成了前调查和后调查，以评估对切除癌症标本的理解：七个医学专科的医疗人员（n = 25）完成了事前调查和事后调查。干预后，医疗服务提供者对标本解剖方向和边缘取样部位的理解有了明显改善（平均 47.4-96.1，p 结论：可视化病理报告提高了医疗服务提供者对标本解剖方向和边缘取样部位的理解：可视病理报告提高了医疗服务提供者对多学科结核病学切除癌症标本的理解。
