OK - my question is - - what in the heck do you need to examine the ENTIRE 
spleen for that would require breadloafing the whole thing for fixation?  
I was in hospital histology for a couple hundred years, and as I recall in 
my feeble, senility- prone years, most of the spleens that made it to 
pathology were from trauma.   The only time I've ever seen pathology in a 
spleen was when my dog had a primary splenic tumor (he died).  Is there 
some new anomaly that happens in spleens these days that require the 
entire spleen to be examined?
Just curious.
