[Histonet] Bone specimens

[Webb, Dorothy L]

Does your facility require bone from a total hip or knee replacements
from patients with osteoarthritis or Degenerative Joint Disease to be
sent to pathology, or are these samples exempt? If they are sent to
pathology, do they perform a gross only or gross+micro.

Thank You,
