Good Morning Histoland,
A while back on histonet a few people gave some tricks to cutting fatty FS tissue on histonet.  Someone mentioned using 50% alcohol I believe.  We had some extremely fatty FS LN’s yesterday.  The pathologist cut away most of the fat, but the tech still had a hard time, so I got called in to help the tech.  I was able to get sufficient sections, but they weren’t optimal.  Could any of you share your secrets please. 

Thank you,
Akemi Allison, BS, HT/HTL (ASCP)
