A photomicrograph showing more than 40 nuclear profiles in a giant detached osteoclast, a finding that was previously considered virtually pathognomonic of Paget disease of bone. Only when combined with the excess osteoid (stained red) and abundant osteoblasts (arrow), however, do the findings suggest Paget disease. Modified Masson stain, original magnification × 400.
