from Reporting
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 August 2021
The conventional fetal and infant autopsy remains the gold standard for determining the cause of death and the final summary of all pathologic findings, even in the era of new emerging technologies. Therefore, timeliness, accuracy, and completeness continue to be key quality parameters in neuropathology, along with clarity in communication and conformance to current standards [1, 2]. To improve the quality and uniformity of autopsy reports, pathology organizations have developed several guidelines defining key parameters for macroscopic and histopathology autopsy reporting. One example is the Autopsy Lexicon, prepared in 2000 by the Autopsy Committee of the College of American Pathologists with the intention to foster more uniform reporting of autopsy information, which may facilitate review of autopsy reports and retrieval of information from electronically stored autopsy reports [3].
