  Overview
  • This is the website of the Surgical Pathology Consultation Service and the Gastrointestinal Biopsy Service of Para Chandrasoma, M.D. This is a free access educational website whose intention is to provide accurate information in ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY. All future revisions of the author's published textbooks and future projects will appear only in this website. The demographic information of case material has been changed in a manner that will ensure that individual patients cannot be recognized. Comments, feedback and questions are welcome through the Contact Us feature. Material for publication in the website is welcome but subject to acceptance and editing by the author.
  Surgical Pathology

Intended for pathology residents and pathologists. Contains images of case material, case discussion and references.

  Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
  • A presentation of extracts of published papers and new concepts of the pathology of reflux disease developed by the author. These concepts are presently a source of considerable controversy.
