Photomicrographs showing different types of tumor cells. (A) Tumor cells of epithelioid cell type are usually nested which are encompassed
by those of spindle-shaped cell type with alignment of a single cell layer (HE double
stain, × 400). (B) Ganglion-like cells; third type of the tumor cell had a large and
oval nucleus with conspicuous nucleolus, as well as a polyhedral amphophilic cytoplasm
(HE double stain, × 1000). (C and D) The metastasizing component of the tumor at the
lymph node comprised the epithelioid cell type alone (HE double stain, × 100, × 400,
respectively).
