Hyaline globules, also hyaline bodies, are a common non-specific histomorphologic feature that can be useful in formulating a differential diagnosis.
They can be seen in benign and malignant tissue.
Benign
- Ectopic decidua.[1]
Tumours
- Clear cell carcinoma (CCC).
- Kaposi sarcoma (KS).
- Solid pseudopapillary tumour.[2]
- Pancreatic endocrine tumour.[2]
- Yolk sac tumour, hepatoid pattern.[3]
- Hepatocellular carcinoma - very common.[4]
- Renal cell carcinoma.[4]
Images:
- Hyaline globules in CCC - very high mag. (WC).
- Hyaline globules in KS - high mag. (WC).
- Hyaline globules in solid pseudopapillary tumour - very high mag. (WC).
