We do Iron,Trichrome, Pas with and without Diastase and Retic on liver biopsies
if requested by the grossing pathologist. We do Diff-Quik on all stomach
biopsies, and if requested by the pathologist an Hp immno. A tricchrome is done
on colon with a diagnosis of microscopic or collagenous

Joyce,
I am facinated by your routine PAS/light green on esophogeal biopsies. We are
talking about working this stain up in house, but have had
We do Diff Quik on all gastric biopsies, and we do Alcian Blue on all
esophageal biopsies with Barrett's indicated by the GI Dr. Our other
special stains are by request, but we almost always end up doing retic and
trichrome on liver bx submitted with hepatitis as Clinical Dx. Hope this

We routinely do PAS with and without digestion, Trichrome and Iron on liver
biopsies. Some doctors I've worked with preferred an Alcian Yellow/Toluidine
Blue or a Giemsa for H. Pylori. We occasionally did H. Pylori using
immunohistochemistry. We also do Iron stains on all bone marrow smears
