Histologic evaluation of primary nasal vestibule tumor and excised lymph nodes A) Cellular neurothekeoma in the left nasal cavity, consisting of bland, histiocytoid cells with scattered mitotic figures (arrow). B) The tumor cells stain intensely for CD10 (left panel) and are negative for HMB45 (right panel). C) Metastatic tumor in a peri-facial lymph node. D) Higher power demonstrates nests of tumor cells morphologically similar to the primary lesion.
