The surface-cells of the papillae proliferatefreely and irregularly, and islets of cells, detached from the papillae,are frequently seen in the microscopic field. In some cases tubular cancer of the uterine body presents somewhatdifferent features ; the growth consists of an aggregation of tubules, ofperfectly regular and uniform characters, lined with a s
