Defined by ''Reed-Sternberg cells'' (RSCs). Morphologically similar mononuclear cells are known as Hodgkin cells. RSCs are: | |||
*Large binucleated cell (>= 45 micrometres).<ref name=Ref_PCPBoD8_329>{{Ref PCPBoD8|329}}</ref> | |||
**May be multinucleated. | |||
**May have a horseshoe-like shape. | |||
*[[Macronucleolus]] - approximately the size of a RBC (~8 micrometers). | |||
*Well-defined cell border. | |||
*Abundant cytoplasm. | |||
RSC may show peri-cellular clearing, making the cells appear within a space. These are called lacunar cells (as they are in a "lake"). Apoptotic RSC may show pyknotic nuclei and scant eosinophilic cytoplasm and are sometimes known as "mummified" cells. | |||
