The Paneth cell is characteristic of the small intestine. It is also normal in the cecum, ascending colon and transverse colon.
Paneth cell metaplasia, abbreviated PCM, redirects to this article.
General
- Paneth cells should not be in the left colon.[1]
- If you see 'em there it is Paneth cell metaplasia.
Paneth cell metaplasia
If PCM is present:
- Think of inflammatory bowel disease and other long-standing injurious processes.
- PCM in the context of colorectal adenomas may be associated with a higher risk of colorectal neoplasia.[2]
Microscopic
Features:
- Supranuclear eosinophilic granules.
DDx:
- Enterochromaffin cells (AKA Kulchitsky cells).
- Subnuclear eosinophilic granules.
- Intraepithelial eosinophils.
- Eosinophils have smaller (~1/2) more intensely red granules.
Images

PCM - high mag. (WC)
PCM - very high mag. (WC)
PCM - extremely high mag. (WC)
IHC
- Lysozyme +ve.[3]

- Gastrointestinal pathology.
- Inflammatory bowel disease.
- Colon.
- Paneth cell-like change of the prostate gland.
