Another area of the decortication specimen had this appearance. Describe the neoplastic features of these cells with respect to: Cell shape--polygonal, not spindled Nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio--generally increased Nucleolar size--enlarged (arrow) Chromaticity--increased These cells blended with the spindled cells. | ||||||
