Neuropathology for the neuroradiologist: palisades and pseudopalisades.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Histologic patterns of cellular architecture often suggest a tissue diagnosis. One distinctive histologic pattern seen within some tumors of the nervous system is the palisade. The purpose of this report is to review the significance of palisades and pseudopalisades in the context of such tumors as schwannomas and glioblastomas.

Distinctive intracellular structures known as inclusions may be occasionally observed on stained tissue preparations and may further suggest a specific diagnosis. Pathologists rely on these findings much as radiologists rely on findings revealed in the gray-scale patterns of densities and intensities on images. Appreciation of these inclusions can enhance the interactions of the neuroradiologis...

متن کاملNeuropathology for the neuroradiologist: fluorescence in situ hybridization.
SUMMARY Fluorescence in situ hybridization is a molecular cytogenetic technique that localizes segments of DNA within tumor cells by using dyes that are visible with a fluorescent microscope. The technique has proved useful in typing a variety of tumors such as oligodendrogliomas and in understanding the genetic forces driving oncogenesis.

Histologically identified intracellular and extracellular inclusions and structures often provide a tissue diagnosis of a specific disease process. Moreover, these deposits may provide clues about the pathogenesis of the disease in which they are found. Two distinctive structures seen within the brains of patients clinically diagnosed with dementia of the Alzheimer type are extracellular plaque...
متن کاملPseudopalisades in glioblastoma are hypoxic, express extracellular matrix proteases, and are formed by an actively migrating cell population.
Necrosis and vascular proliferation are the pathologic features that distinguish the most malignant infiltrative astrocytoma, glioblastoma (GBM), from those of lower grades. In GBM, hypercellular zones called pseudopalisades typically surround necrotic foci. Although these cells are known to secrete high levels of proangiogenic factors that promote tumor growth, their origins are ill defined. W...
