Abstract
The Association of Directors of Anatomic and Surgical Pathology (ADASP) has proposed recommendations for surgical pathology reporting of malignant tumors. Recommendations for reporting of extra-adrenal paragangliomas are outlined herein. The Association of Directors of Anatomic and Surgical Pathology (ADASP) has requested various committees to propose recommendations for the content and scope of the surgical pathology report for common or uncommon tumors. The following recommendations were developed by an ad hoc committee composed of Ernest E. Lack, MD, (Chair), Ricardo V. Lloyd MD, PhD, J. Aidan Carney, MD, PhD, James M. Woodruff MD, and a group of pathologists with expertise or special interest in paragangliomas. These recommendations are reviewed and approved by the council of the ADASP and then circulated to the entire membership of the ADASP for their input. Thus, an interim consensus on reporting is reached among those with interest and expertise in a particular area or field of pathology; clearly, it is recognized that classification of tumors, diagnostic criteria, and terminology may undergo change in the future.
