Welcome to '''Cytologically Yours''', the online library of cytology case studies of the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Department of Pathology. It is maintained and curated under the direction of [http://www.uab.edu/medicine/pathology/fellowship-program/current-fellows Stephanie Simmons, MD], [http://www.uab.edu/medicine/pathology/fellowship-program/current-fellows Jessica Levesque, MD], [https://services.medicine.uab.edu/facultyDirectory/FacultyData.asp?FID=10107 Isam-Eldin Eltoum, MD], and [https://services.medicine.uab.edu/facultyDirectory/FacultyData.asp?FID=61255 Seung Park, MD].

== Cases of the Week ==
The following are a collection of interesting cytology cases seen at our institution.

* [[Cytologically Yours: CoW: 20131125|Current Case of the Week]]
* [[Cytologically Yours: CoW|Cases of the Week Index]]

== Unknowns ==
The following cases are compiled by the Cytopathology Fellows for conference discussion every month.

* [[Cytologically Yours: Unknowns: 2014#May|Current Unknowns]]
* [[Cytologically Yours: Unknowns|Unknowns Index]]

== Resident Writeups ==
Every resident who rotates through the Cytopathology department will submit case write-ups during the month long rotation.

* Current Resident Writeup
* Resident Writeups Index

== Teaching Cases ==
This is a compilation of cases with examples of normal cytology findings, benign entities, and malignant entities. These cases are designed to help teach residents, students, and fellows; what findings can be seen in different specimens.
