Abstract: The gross or macroscopic examination which includes the colour, size, and other features of a trephine (core) biopsy specimen may be useful in identifying a diseased process even before sectioned and stained slides are examined. A case is presented where a gross macroscopic examination of the trephine (core) biopsy specimen revealed features indicative of bone marrow involvement by a malignant process. The patient is a 65-year-old white female who presented with a history of persistent productive cough for several months and increasing malaise and weakness [1].
