*Mushroom-like shape - with broad or narrow base. | |||
Note: | |||
*Very unusual in craniofacial bones.<ref name=pmid12873205/> | |||
==Microscopic== | |||
Features:<ref name=pmid12873205/> | |||
*Bone - forms base of "mushroom". | |||
*Cartilage - layer usu. thinner in older individuals. | |||
**Lobular arrangement<ref name=upmc_case341>URL: [http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case341/dx.html http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case341/dx.html]. Accessed on: 19 September 2012.</ref> - clusters of 3-12 lacunae (separated by stroma). | |||
**May have mild atypia. | |||
**Nuclear enlargement - up to 5x normal. | |||
*[[Perichondrium]] - covers the cartilage. | |||
**Thin layer of cells - higher cellular density than cartilage. | |||
***Bland spindle cells in a fibrous (eosinophilic) stroma. | |||
Notes: | |||
*Benign cartilage - one chondrocyte per lacuna, small and round nucleus, no binucleation. | |||
DDx: | |||
*[[Chondrosarcoma]] - esp. in older individuals. | |||
