Figure 3

Photomicrograph showing histopathology of primitive polypoid granular cell tumour (PPGCT). (a) Ulcerated mucosa overlying a tumor composed of sheets of granular cells and clear cells (hematoxylin-eosin stain, ×40). (b) Spindle cells and scattered clear cells arranged in fascicles (hematoxylin-eosin stain, ×40). (c) Spindle cells with granular cytoplasm (hematoxylin-eosin stain, ×40). (d) Spindle cells with granular and clear cytoplasm; mitotic figures are seen (hematoxylin-eosin stain, ×400) [19].
