-Features:
-*Well-circumscribed - '''key (low power) feature'''.
-*Abundant small vascular channels with benign endothelium.
-*+/-Papillary formation with a fibrotic core covered by benign endothelium.<ref>URL: [http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case544.html http://path.upmc.edu/cases/case544.html]. Accessed on: 25 January 2012.</ref>
