Call for Mystery Cases Submission

Mystery Cases traditionally have been a highlight for ASVCP members at previous annual meetings and have allowed clinical pathologists, trainees, and other attendees to share in the joy and challenge of great diagnostic cases. The 2027 ASVCP Symposium in Asheville, NC will include a Mystery Slide session and a Case Discussion session (Chemistry Happy Hour!) on Monday, April 19th. The mystery slides will all be scanned and only available digitally.

Desired cases include but are not limited to:

• Classic examples or unique representations of hematologic, cytologic, endocrinologic, and/or clinical chemistry findings associated with diseases, drugs, or toxicologic or research studies
• Surgical histopathologic samples from lesions that would be examined by cytology with relevant cytologic images
• Challenging cases, even those still unresolved or with ill-defined outcomes
• Cases from uncommon species (non-canine/feline)

The deadline for submissions is Monday, November 30, 2026 (11:59pm ET).

A Google form will be used for all case submissions for the 2027 Symposium. Please click here to access the form and for further instructions. Thank you for your submissions!
