Summary
| Description |
Contributed by Philip Kane, MD The unusual inclusions seen in these giant cells appear to be cholesterol crystals with a peripheral rim of calcification. Cholesterol crystals can apparently serve as a nidus for calcification just as calcium oxalate crystals can serve as a nidus for the formation of calcific Schaumann (conchoidal) bodies. I have never previously encountered inclusions of this type. |
