Answer:
Dr. Asof Samuels sent tissue from a biopsy of Mrs. Moore's diaphragm for review by the medical laboratory where they study histology. When negative results were reported, Dr. Samuels scheduled a phrenectomy to remove part of her diaphragm.
The correct answer is option C, histology, phrenectomy.
Step-by-step explanation:
The laboratory prepares and studies the tissue, so they study the histology of it because the experts using a microscope analyze the form of the cells, the structure of the cells in the tissue and if there is something that should not be there. As the results came negative, which means that the tissue is healthy, the doctor proceeds to perform a phrenectomy. A phrenectomy is a surgery where a part of the phrenic nerve, which innervates the diaphragm allowing the body to breathe, is removed.
