Pathology Image Detail

Caption

Solid mammary carcinoma with epithelial to mesenchymal transition: this photomicrograph illustrates a portion of the neoplasm where there is gradual transition between a solid pattern (left side of the photomicrograph) to a spindloid pattern (right side of the photomicrograph) characterized by the formation of interlacing fascicles. The stroma in the solid areas is more abundant and more fibrous than at the periphery of the neoplasm. The stroma is more edematous and less fibrous in the portions of the neoplasm composed of spindloid cells. Neoplastic cells still form a few glands with prominent lumens (arrowheads).
