greatest importance that when a practitioner sends an excised lymph node 

 to the pathologist lor diagnosis, he should at the same time send all the 

 clinical information available. Too often the specimen is sent in without 

 a word of history. This may be taken as subtle flattery for the omniscient 

 pathologist, but it is actually an expression of culpable carelessness, and is 

 grossly unfair to the patient who has entrusted himself to the practitioner." 1
