The structure of these tumors is very variable and depends uponthe origin; some tumors recalling the original vascular network (Ameri-can Text-Book of Pathology), others being distinctly alveolar. Manypathologists consider a psammoma ofthe dura to be an endothelioma with afibrous stroma. A psammoma containscalcareous particles. In appearance anendothelioma strongly resembles cancer,and such a growth is often spoken of.
