Description |
bronchoalveolar adenoma |
Age at Necropsy |
816 days |
Notes |
This is the lung from a 816 day old male FVB/NJ mouse. Note the large glandular neoplasm that is compressing the normal lung parenchyma. This is a well differentiated neoplasm that resembles a pulmonary adenoma but it is very large and leaves little functional normal lung in this lobe. Although mitotic figures are present, albeit infrequent, it is most likely an adenocarincoma due to its large size. |
