[Histonet] Frozen tissue from Immunofluorescence

[O'Neil, Beth A. via Histonet]

Would anyone be willing to share with me what you do with residual frozen 
tissue from immunofluorescence testing or frozen tissue remaining from muscle 
biopsy?  CAP requirements only address what you do with residual frozen tissue 
remaining from intraoperative consultations.  We keep the frozen tissue from IF 
in our -70 C freezer and then periodically dispose of the oldest cases in order 
to make room for the newer.  Does anyone out there actually take the frozen 
tissue, after a certain period of time, thaw it out and then process into a 
FFPE block for storage?
