Fig. 90.—Simple adenoma of the mammary gland (X200'). cells the basement membrane remains intact and around this there are seen a few small, thread-like, wavy, spindle-shaped connective tissue cells. Simple adenoma of the mammary gland.—This is not commonly seen as such, but it is not rare to observe the remains of this type in direct continuity with carcinoma of the mammary gland. These adenomas contain gland-like arrangements of the mammar\^ epithelial cells (Fig. 90). They range from small abortive structures which appear to be attempts at gland formation to large, round or oval, dilated cyst-like spaces containing more or less eosino- philic amorphous material. The lining cells are arranged in a single, smooth, orderly layer. Generally they are cuboidal and uniform in size, shape and.
