Name of entity
- Ideally should be WHO name.
- E.g. pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma, not malignant fibrous histiocytoma.
- Names should reflect the pathogenesis as is understood currently.
- E.g. keratocystic odontogenic tumour, not odontogenic keratocyst.
- The use of common misnomers is discouraged.
- Some terms are tolerated... if they are very common, e.g. pyogenic granuloma (better term would be lobular capillary hemangioma).
- Other names are listed under the heading with also known as (AKA).
Standard headings
- General - this includes, clinical information, prognosis and treatment.
- Gross - this includes radiology and endoscopic exams.
- Microscopic.
- Stains.
- IHC.
- Molecular (optional).
- Sign out.

- Definition: A key feature is a distinctive common feature that strongly favours the given diagnosis and whose absense would strongly disfavour the diagnosis or exclude it.
- Examples:
- Eosinophils in eosinophilic esophagitis.
- Nuclear atypia at the free surface in tubular adenoma.
