Mr Walter Hampson,
Utterson, Ontario,
age 34. Dr Ainslie, Pathologist.
Diagnosis: Squamous Carcinoma of the lip.
Microscopic report: Sections through the tissue showed marked inflammation and thickening of the surface layers of the epithelium and underlying stroma. The epithelium also shows the basal layer irregular and spreading out in the underlying tissue in a manner suggestive of early malignancy.
Although the lesion is largely inflammatory it is impossible to rule out malignancy owing to the hyperplastic character of the squamous epithelium.
The gross specimen of a small portion of whitish grey tissue, measuring 4x5x3 this is firm and fibrous in character and shows small areas of haemorrhage."
Signed
T E Ainslie
Pathologist.
