FIGURES

Fig. 1

Figure 1. Macroscopically, two mammary fragments each of them with a nodular tumor of 2,8x2x1,7 cm. and 1 cm. They were very well demarcated from adjacent fatty tissue with a shinny brown cut surface.

 

Fig 2

Figure 2. Imprints show crystals with irregular and many times trapezoidal contours negative under polarized light and scattered macrophages.

 

Fig. 3

Figure 3. On histologic sections, many large and irregular aggregates of tightly packed cholesterol needle-like crystals in parallel or radial arrays were observed in both tumors.

 

Fig. 4

Figure 4. Collagen bands containing macrophages and foreign-body giant cells were noted between crystal aggregates.

 

Fig 5

Figure 5. In adjacent mammary tissue there were distended ectatic ducts containing foamy histocytes, calcium deposits and immersed in a fibrous stroma.
