Not all errors are created equal: assessment of amended diagnoses at a major academic center
Key Points
The research assesses patterns of amended diagnoses in surgical pathology to identify areas needing quality improvement.
Analysis of amendment trends in surgical pathology
Evaluation of subspecialty-specific patterns
Review of amendment stability over time
Amendment rates in surgical pathology are low but notable
Certain subspecialties show distinct amendment patterns
Timeliness and stability of amendments support quality measures
Abstract
Amendments in surgical pathology are uncommon, timely, and stable. Subspecialty-specific amendment patterns highlight discrete areas for targeted quality improvement and focused secondary review.
