Corredor

Spanish term or phrase: Corredor
Hi all (sorry about the previous question, I made a mistake with the context).

I'm translating a couple of oncology lab tests from the same institution.
The title on one reads "BIOPSIA" and on the other it reads "CORREDOR".

Here's how it appears:

DEPARTAMENTO DE PATOLOGÍA
CORREDOR
Nombre XXXX
Cédula XXXX
Estudio CORREDOR
Procedencia y/o Espécimen MAMA-DERECHA
Diagnóstico probable NT

The remainder of the page appears to be a similar but more condensed version of the biopsy results, and the date is 3 months later.
In the biopsy, the tissue was a single mass. In this one, they're looking at four smaller cylinders of tissue with different coloration. The diagnosis is virtually the same, but this time it includes "tumor fibroblástico".

Does anyone have any experience with this wording in oncology lab results from the Dominican Republic?

Explanation:
It is not to far-fetched to imagine that "corredor" is a jargon term or even a local term, having one of these two meanings.

Asker: Thanks for your input. I had a similar hunch, but I just can't tell. I'm also thinking it's just an erroneous entry in that field and that it means "agent's copy," i.e., for the insurance agent.

It is the best Spanish dictionary I know. Sadly, it doesn't seem to provide any leads.
