Microscopic Description -- Brain Mass


MICROSCOPIC DESCRIPTION:

Microscopic sections show fragments of an epithelial neoplasm with a combination of solid to papillary architecture. The cells show large oval nuclei with prominent, occasionally multiple nucleoli and cytoplasmic vacuoles which are mucicarmine-positive and PAS-positive. The neoplastic cells form palisades around blood vessels. There are scattered foci of chronic inflammation with numerous plasma cells.
