Figure 1.
A: An example of an intravascular tumor embolus of endometrioid adenocarcinoma. Note the absence of a surrounding endothelial cell layer, but rather closely adherent fibrinoid material (presumably a platelet fibrin complex). B: A second example of an intravascular tumor embolus of a poorly differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma. As in A, note the absence of a surrounding endothelial cell layer, but rather closely adherent fibrinoid material (presumably a platelet fibrin complex).
