Tissue Block for Mohs

September 20, 2018

Question:
I have a question about Mohs blocks.  If I butterfly cut a specimen, divide it into two pieces, and place it on a plate, is that one block or two?

Answer:
One.  It does not matter how many pieces are placed on a plate.  A block is a plate with tissue and mounting medium on it.
