12. A pathology report shows adenocarcinoma. What type of information should also

appear in this report?
A. Tissue structure
B. Presence of cancer in an organ
C. Condition of a particular organ
D. Condition of the heart
I think the answern is A.

Correct

I disagree. What is adenocarcinoma?

My mistake the answer is B adenocarcinoma is a type of cancer

Since the question asks what type of information should ALSO appear in the report, Jackie may be right.

Option B

You are correct, the answer is A. In a pathology report that shows adenocarcinoma, the type of information that should also appear is the tissue structure. Adenocarcinoma refers to a type of cancer that develops from the cells that line certain organs. The report would typically provide details about the specific tissue where the cancer originated, the characteristics of the cancer cells, and any other notable findings related to the tissue structure. The presence of cancer in an organ (option B) and the condition of a particular organ (option C) may be mentioned, but they are typically secondary to the primary focus on the tissue structure. The condition of the heart (option D) is generally not directly related to the pathology report unless there are specific findings or complications associated with the heart related to the adenocarcinoma.
