Interesting placentas are 88307s (I believe) and as such are supposed to be more complex than a 88305 lung bx you might sweat 30 minutes over...
What I want to know is:
1.) How many cassettes are people being trained to submit on placentas
2.) And what are people routining taking samples of
3.) How are people bottom lining negative placentas...
Im curious as I just was chatting about a locums I had who demanded to submit 5+ cassettes on a placenta, which everyone thought was crazy.
Ill start
1.) 1-2 cassettes, maybe 3 for a twin
2.) membrane, cord and bit of fetal and maternal side CV
3.) "unremarkable third trimester singleton placenta with 3-vessel cord"
