He who signed the final diagnosis on this consultation ought to keep the slides because they are the "proof" of such final diagnosis. If you just did the IHC procedures to be sent to them so they would do the final diagnosis, then they keep the slides.

Curious to see how others are handling this...........

We recently received a consult from another facility and ended up
preparing a lot of IHC stains on the referred blocks. One of our
pathologists believes the IHC slides should be returned to the original
requesting lab. Another couple of pathologists and I feel that the
slides should be kept here, as we have some sort of legal
responsibility, as the facility that prepared the slides from which our
consult report was generated.

Thanks
