The structureof these tumors is very variable and depends upon the origin; some tumorsrecalling the original vascular network (American Text-Book of Pathology),others being distinctly alveolar. Many pathologists consider a psammoma ofthe dura to be an endothelioma with a fibrousstroma. A psammoma contains calcareousparticles. In appearance an endotheliomastrongly resembles cancer, and such a growthis often spoken of as endothelial cancer. Suchgrowths can arise in many different situations,.
