Spermatocytic tumour Microscopy: Nests of cells --- With fibrous septa and lymphocytes Landmark feature - tripartite cytology with cells of 3 different sizes: Small cells (6 - 8 microns) --Round dark nuclei --Narrow rim of eosinophilic cytoplasm Intermediate size cells (15 - 20 microns) --Round nuclei with granular to filamentous chromatin (so called spireme-like chromatin , after the thread-like chromatin at the beginning of prophase) --Usually no evident nucleoli, although they might be present --Dense eosinophilic to amphophilic cytoplasm with no glycogen Giant cells (50 - 150 microns) --1 or more nuclei with the same features of medium cells --Eosinophilic cytoplasm with the same features of medium cells
Spermatocytic tumour
Microscopy:
Nests of cells
--- With fibrous septa and lymphocytes
Landmark feature - tripartite cytology with cells of 3 different sizes:
Small cells (6 - 8 microns)
--Round dark nuclei
--Narrow rim of eosinophilic cytoplasm
Intermediate size cells (15 - 20 microns)
--Round nuclei with granular to filamentous chromatin (so called spireme-like chromatin , after the thread-like chromatin at the beginning of prophase)
--Usually no evident nucleoli, although they might be present
--Dense eosinophilic to amphophilic cytoplasm with no glycogen
Giant cells (50 - 150 microns)
--1 or more nuclei with the same features of medium cells
--Eosinophilic cytoplasm with the same features of medium cells
Our skill of diagnosing spermatocytic tumor grew from small and intermediate to giant level today sir..thank u
Thank u sir..
Thank you Dr Ranjith,plz make it a little more audible
Sure., point noted :)
