Pathological findings of the arising tumors after coimplantation with a plastic plate. Macroscopic features of FPCK-1–1 (1 × 105 cells) implanted with a plastic plate attached (A) and the plastic plate alone (B) on day 121 (bar, 5 mm). Histologic sections were obtained from the arising tumor after sc implantation of FPCK-1–1 cells attached to the plastic plate. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining (C) and Azan staining (D) (bar, 100 μm). E, High magnification of the same tumor with Azan staining (bar, 50 μm). F, HE staining of the stromal tissues where the plastic plate had been implanted and removed 120 days after implantation. * indicates the space caused by plastic plate implantation (bar, 100 μm).
