Histiocytic sarcoma, liver. There is massive infiltration in the liver by histiocytic tumor cells. The tumor cells form vascular thrombi and emboli, have oval shaped nuclei and have abundant pale eosinophilic cytoplasm. In a few foci, the tumor cells have a spindle shape. Some multinucleated giant tumor cells are seen. Tumor cells are CD68+ and F4/80+. |
