Anatomic Pathology
Soft Tissue/Bone Pathology
The Soft Tissue and Bone Pathology Service at Kingston General Hospital
is focused primarily upon the histopathologic diagnosis of benign and
malignant soft tissue tumours in core biopsies and excision specimens,
with the help of ancillary diagnostic tools such as immunohistochemistry
and cytogenetics. Due to the complexity and rarity of soft tissue and
bone tumours, challenging cases are sent for external consultation and
further workup, as indicated, to the Hospital for Sick Children or to
Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, depending on the age of the patient.
