Pathology Image Detail
Caption |
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition in a mammary adenocarcinoma: epithelial to mesenchymal transition is characterized by neoplastic cells becoming spindloid and being surrounded by a large amount of fibrovascular stroma with a mild diffuse interstitial lymphocytic infiltration. Some neoplastic cells are still arranged in 1-2 cells-thick cords and have retained an epithelial morphology. Spindloid neoplastic cells (arrowheads) have an elongated nucleus that has a smaller nucleolus than the nucleus of epithelial neoplastic cells. |
