Histological aspects of the incisional and excisional biopsies. Incisional biopsy showed that a large portion of the tumor was arranged in a pseudoglandular pattern consisting of nests of pale, uniform, clear cells with dark-stained nuclei (a, ×40), whereas some areas were admixed with polyhedral epithelial cells (b, ×100) and contained small foci of calcification (arrow, c, ×200). (d) Similar histopathological findings to the incisional biopsy were observed for the surgical specimen (×40).
