Here is a selection of new images from our free, online textbook:
Salivary glands > Intraductal carcinoma
Cuboidal cells with eosinophilic cytoplasm and small, oval nuclei and inconspicuous nucleoli (H&E, 40x).
Contributed by Kim A. Ely, M.D.
Soft tissue > Perineurioma
Soft tissue perineurioma showing hemangiopericytoma-like growth pattern (H&E, 12.5x).
Contributed by Andrea Saggini, M.D.
Stains & molecular markers > Microphthalmia associated transcription factor (MITF)
MITF highlights the nuclei of the pigmented spindle cells forming nests and fascicles.
Contributed by Ata Moshiri, M.D., M.P.H.
Stains & molecular markers > MCPyV (CM2B4)
The nuclear pattern of CM2B4 immunoreactivity in MCC tumor cells indicates MCPyV positivity. There is an absence of staining in the background nontumoral cells, including inflammatory, endothelial and stromal cells.
Contributed by Thai Yen Ly, M.D.
Ovary > Brenner tumor
This benign Brenner tumor features bland nuclei with conspicuous nuclear grooves in some tumor cells.
Contributed by Jutta Huvila, M.D. and C. Blake Gilks, M.D.
Lymphoma & related disorders > Lymphomatoid granulomatosis
Case 1: lung; H&E staining, Fig 2A: polymorphous infiltrate in scanner view (40x). Fig 2B: lymphocytic vasculitis with infiltration of the vessel wall is seen (100x). Fig 2C: lymphocytic vasculitis with infiltration of the vessel wall is seen (200x). Fig 2D: angioinvasion by lymphoid cells in lymphomatoid granulomatosis (400x).
