History: A 71-year-old male presented with persistent headache. CT and MRI scans revealed a 5.0 x 4.0 x 2.5 cm bifrontal brain parenchymal mass with two smaller dural-based satellite lesions measuring 3.0 and 1.0 cm in greatest diameter (Fig. 1). The masses were contrast-enhancing and preoperatively were interpreted as meningiomas. During surgery, multiple pieces of pink-gray, rubbery tissue fragments with a lobulated appearance were collected which aggregated 15.0 x 14.0 x 2.5 cm.

Dear Friend of the Registry:
Greetings from the California Tumor Tissue Registry! With your help, the Registry has had yet another successful year in 2007-2008! Our materials currently reach over 1,000 pathologists/month in 45 states, 24 countries on 5 continents, and in over 30 pathology residency programs. With the new 2008-2009 subscription year upon us, it is now time to commit to your subscription(s) and to reserve your place at our two semi-annual cancer slide seminars!
Again, we will offer two glass slide subscriptions (“A” and “B”). Both include …
