The histologist is looking for

thymus samples from adults for his new project. He finds a few paraffin blocks

that are not properly labelled. He takes the stained glass attached to the

blocks and looks on them under a microscope. The slide consist mainly of

adipose tissue. It is possible to distinguish well the connective tissue

capsule and the signs of incomplete septa. The lobes are, however, filled

mainly with fat. Only residues of the tissue itself are present. A dark cortex

is visible, with remnants of lighter medulla with Hassall bodies in the middle.

Is it possible to conclude from this description to whom this specimen belongs

and whether the pathologist can use it in his study?
