Here the answers are explained... 

1. Benign orchitectomy with 10 blocks - rule 4:
10 blocks x 1 L2/block ~ 10 L2, 10 L2 x 0.33 L4E/L2 ~ 3.33 L4E

2. 12 core prostate biopsy - rule 2:
12 cores x L3/1 core ~ 12 L3, 1 L3 ~ 0.5 L4E, 12 L3 ~ 6 L4E

3. 2 frag bladder biopsy - rule 1:
3 or less frags ~ 1 L4E

4. 2 core kidney biopsy for tumour - rule 2:
5 of less cores ~ 1 L4E

5. 14 core prostate biopsy - rule 2:
14 cores x L3/1 core ~ 14 L3, 1 L3 ~ 0.5 L4E, 14 L3 ~ 7 L4E

6. 5 frags bladder biopsy - rule 1:
1 L4E

7. TURP in 3 blocks - rule 3:
1 L4E

8. 6 frags bladder biopsy - rule 1:
1 L4E + 1 L4E (>5 frags) ~ 2 L4E

9. TURP in 10 blocks - rule 3:
1 L4E + 7 x L2 ~ 1 + 7 x 0.33

10. TURP in 13 blocks - rule 3:
1 L4E + 7 x L2 ~ 1 + 10 x 0.33

11. 2 kidney biopsy cores for tumour + 5 IHC - rule 1:
1 L4E + 5 x 0.15 ~ 1.75 12. Prostatectomy with lymph nodes submitted in 40 blocks - rule 9:
10 L4E + 10 * L2 (for blocks over 30) ~ 10 + 10 x 0.33

13. Prostatectomy with lymph nodes submitted in 55 blocks - rule 9:
10 L4E + 25 * L2 (for blocks over 30) ~ 10 + 25 x 0.33

14. Simple nephrectomy in 20 block rule 4:
20 x L2 ~ 20 x 0.33

15. Cytoprostatectomy with incidental prostate cancer submitted in 60 blocks - rule 9:
10 L4E + 30 * 0.333 + 5 (extra synoptic)

16. Bladder biopsy 6 frags with cancer - rule 5:
5 L4E (synoptic required)
