Oakstone Dermatopathology 2025 — case-driven teaching on the skin biopsies that cause trouble
Oakstone Dermatopathology 2025, released on 31 October 2025 in the Masters of Pathology series, is a compact set of 15 lectures by nine dermatopathologists. It leans on real cases and near misses, and spends much of its time on how to use immunohistochemistry, culture and molecular studies well — from Sweet syndrome variants and BPDCN to sebaceous neoplasia, melanoma reporting and Merkel cell carcinoma.

What you’ll be able to do
- Handle cutaneous emergencies and challenging dermatoses on biopsy
- Recognise cutaneous adverse reactions to systemic therapies
- Distinguish histiocytoid Sweet syndrome and diagnose blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm
- Apply IHC and molecular tools to adnexal and melanocytic tumours
- Report primary cutaneous melanoma in line with current guidance
Inside the course
Inflammatory and haematolymphoid problems
May Chan opens with difficult dermatoses and skin emergencies, Steve Billings looks at adverse reactions to systemic therapy, and Alexandra Hristov devotes two talks to histiocytoid Sweet syndrome and BPDCN. Ahmed Al-Omari closes this strand with lessons from hard cases.
Oakstone Dermatopathology 2025 on tumours
Carina Dehner and Jason Hornick take superficial mesenchymal and vascular tumours; Thibault Kervarrec and Katharina Wiedemeyer cover adnexal tumour diagnostics, acral sweat gland tumours and sebaceous neoplasia.
Melanocytic and neuroendocrine
Billings discusses MITF-activated neoplasms, Klaus Busam addresses melanoma reporting guidelines and melanocytic IHC, and Kervarrec updates Merkel cell carcinoma.

Before you buy
How does it compare with the 2023 dermatopathology course?
Dermatopathology 2023 is a separate, larger product (42 lectures). The 2025 edition is shorter, more case-based and shares only a few faculty with it, so the two complement rather than duplicate each other.
What are the two PDFs?
Two PDF files accompany the 15 videos; their contents are not described in detail.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
