The genus contains a single species—myelomas. These. Fig. 26.—Microscopic characters of a myeloma from the acromial end of the clavicle. tumours arise only in the cancellous tissue of bone. Whenfresh the cut surface of the tumour is deep red, and looksnot unlike a piece of fresh liver, and is very vascular. Micro-scopically, this tissue abounds in large multinuclear cells(giant cells, myeloplaques) embedded among round andspindle cells. The giant cells are so numerous as to consti-tute the greater proportion of the tumour (Fig. 26). The distribution of myelomas is that of red marrow, butthey exhibit a striking preference for certain bones ; the tibia 45 46 G0NNEGTIYE-TI8SVE TUM0UB8 is tlie favourite bone in the lower, and the radius in the upperHrnb; whilst so far as the bones of the head are concerned,they appear to be peculiar to the jaw-bones.
