49. Giant cell tumor of bone (osteoclastoma): Difference between revisions

Created page with "'''Staining''': HE '''Organ''': Bone tumor sampled by curettage '''Description''': The purplish things are pieces of the tumor. The pinkish things are not. The tumor pieces are comprised of two types of cell. There are osteoclast-type giant cells, which have large eosinophilic cytoplasm and many nuclei. These cells are not neoplastic; they are reactive cells. The cells that are between the giant cells are the neoplastic cells. These cells are primitive mesenchymal c..."
