Elvio G Silva, M.D.

    I was born in 1943 in Veronica, a small town in

    Argentina and obtained my medical degree from

    the University of La Plata, following which I

    completed a residency in Pathology in Buenos 

    Aires.I later completed a second residency in

    Pathology in Toronto, Canada, and a surgical

    fellowship at MD Anderson Cancer Center.

    Following my training I joined MD Anderson as

    faculty. I also worked, part time, at Cedars Sinai 

    Hospital in Los Angeles and at Baylor Hospital in 

    Dallas.

    In my career, I had the fortune of working with 

    many amazing colleagues and residents which 

    have been the most rewarding part of my career

    along with some other high points listed below:  

​

• Slide seminar on Intraoperative Consultation, American Society of Clinical Pathologists

• Harlan Spjut Award, Houston Society of Clinical Pathologists

• Keynote address, Texas Society of Pathology

• Moderator of the Surgical Pathology Conference, United States-Canadian Academy of Pathology

• President of the International Society of Gynecological Pathologists

• Being able to listen to and learn from Oscar Croxatto, Felix Rutledge, and Bob Scully.

   

    While I am proud of my accomplishments in the field of           Pathology, I am most proud to be the husband to my 

    incredible wife, Betty, a father to my loving children and a

    grandfather to my beautiful grandchildren.
