Few days ago we had a class in pathology department regrading histopathology of O&G specimen. I'm currently in O&G now, but in the new system, we only taking Gynecology for 4 weeks now. Obstetric will be continued during the major posting rotation.
Pathology is a great branch in hospital, where they in charge of most specimen for investigative and diagnostic purpose. Specimens are sent here and the pathologists have to handle hundreds of specimens within a day in this busy hospital.

The machine on the left is used to make the specimen onto a single layer cell, sounds unbelievable? it also can reproduce more sample for other investigation.
In O&G, PAP Smear (for cervical CA), endometrial sampling and high vaginal swab are some of the common specimens done. They are usually done in the outpatient clinic and the patients are asked to review the result on next appointment. Using a Cusco's speculum is not as easy as i thought, as young patient is not as 'lax' as the older or multiparous women.
