About
Dr. Priti Chatterjee is a pathologist whose work focuses on the diagnostic challenges of urological cancers, particularly prostate cancer. Her research addresses critical issues in histopathology, including the "vanishing cancer phenomenon"—a perplexing scenario where tumors detected on biopsy are not found in subsequent surgical specimens. In her notable 2013 study, "Diagnostic dilemma in histopathology report following robot assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: Tumour 'hide and seek'," she analyzed the implications of widespread PSA screening, which has led to the detection of smaller tumor volumes and increased reports of this phenomenon. Although her most-cited paper has garnered 2 citations, her contributions are significant for highlighting the diagnostic pitfalls in modern prostate cancer management, especially in the context of robot-assisted surgery. Dr. Chatterjee’s work underscores the need for meticulous histopathological evaluation to ensure accurate staging and treatment decisions, making her a valuable voice in the field of surgical pathology and oncology.
