Gross Appearance

Tumors vary in size, from tiny spots to large masses, with an average of 10 cm in diameter. Tumors are oval and soft in consistency. On cut-section, histology reveals reticular, trabecular areas with interstitial haemorrhage and Call-Exner bodies-small cyst like spaces interspersed within a graafian follicle.

Famous quotes containing the words gross and/or appearance:

    “I am haunted by interrupted acts,
    introspective as a leper, enchanted
    by a repulsive clew,
    a gross and fugitive movement of the limbs.
    Is this the love that shook the lights to flame?”
    —Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    “I think I am one of those who can manage not to take on a completely different appearance under their own glance.”
    —Jean Rostand (1894–1977)
