This example shows some multiple-base pathological processes, collected as if they were one finding.
The original descriptive text by the pathologist is repeated in the original result fields (MIORRES), because a finding should comprise only 1 base pathological process and its modifiers (severity, chronicity, or distribution, and the remaining in result modifiers as a supplemental qualifier record). Because there are 3 base processes described in MIORRES, there needs to be 3 records, each with 1 base process in MISTRESC.
