The cytoplasm is abundant, acidophilic and often contains coarse keratohyalin granules. These cells grade over into smaller, closely packed, disorderly, polyhedral to somewhat spindle-shaped cells. They possess a relatively small amount of eosinophilic cytoplasm and contain oval, moderately hypochromatic nuclei with scattered coarse chromatin granules. Scattered foci of brown pigment resembling melanin are often seen. Mitoses

A, tumor invad- ing dermis around vibrissa (X200); B, cellular detail of this same tumor (X400). Occasionally a very malignant form shows little epithelial pearl formation (Fig. 107). It may consist of wildly growing spindle-shaped epithelial tumor cells that blend with narrow strands and small nests of the smaller types of polyhedral epithelial tumor cells (Fig. 108B). Unless the origin can be traced to the epidermis in this type of tumor, the architecture is so mis- leading that it could confuse one in interpreting the histopathology. ]\Iitoses are abundant. Carcinomas of skin appendages.—These all give the same general picture. They originate in the specialized sebaceous glands of the head region of.
