Stage of development of spheroid | Morphological hallmark of UDH |
Freshly formed spheroid (Fig. 1A) | Mosaic-like staining pattern CK14/CK8 (16) |
Two-zone spheroid (Fig. 1B) | Maturation phenotype, irregular nuclear spacing, syncytia, streaming, nuclear shape (12), mosaic-like pattern CK14/CK8 |
Concentric layers formed by cell cords without lumen (Figs. 2 and 3) | Concentric growth of solid-cell cords (12), mosaic-like pattern of CK14/CK8 (16) |
Multilayered epithelium with lumen (Fig. 4) | Fenestrations (slit-like lumina) with peripheral epithelium and convex border with myoepithelial layer (18), apocrine tufts or snouts (9), basal myoepithelial layer, continuous lumina (19) |
All: nuclear indentation (12).
