8-1: A, Tubular adenoma (adenomatous polyp) of the colon. Note the fibrovascular stalk (arrow) lined by normal colonic mucosa and a branching head surfaced by dysplastic (blue-staining) epithelial glands. B, Lipoma showing a well-circumscribed yellow tumor. C, Cystic teratoma of the ovary, showing the cystic nature of the tumor. Hair is present, and a tooth is visible (arrow). D, Squamous cell carcinoma. The many well-differentiated foci of eosinophilic-staining neoplastic cells produce keratin in layers (keratin pearls). E, Adenocarcinoma. Irregular glands infiltrate the stroma. The nuclei lining the gland lumens are cuboidal and contain nuclei with hyperchromatic nuclear chromatin. Many of the gland lumens contain secretory material (arrow). F, Osteogenic sarcoma of the distal femur. The light-colored mass of tumor in the metaphysis abuts the epiphyseal plate (arrow) and has spread laterally out through the cortex and into the surrounding tissue.
