[Electronmicroscopic findings in a malignant hepatoma after oral contraceptives (author's transl)]. 1978

J Hatzibujas, and H Ueberberg, and R Stoldt, and H Breining

In this paper we report the electronmicroscopic findings in a hepatocellular carcinoma of a 24 years old woman after taking oral contraceptives. We saw alterations of the nucleus (finger-like or finger-formed nuclei, nuclear invaginations and intranuclear vesicular membranbodies), changes of the mitochondries (number, polymorphy and osmiophil bodies) as well as changes of lysosomes (myelinshaped residualbodies). The observed and described changes are not specific for malignant tumors of the liver.

D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell

D006528 Carcinoma, Hepatocellular A primary malignant neoplasm of epithelial liver cells. It ranges from a well-differentiated tumor with EPITHELIAL CELLS indistinguishable from normal HEPATOCYTES to a poorly differentiated neoplasm. The cells may be uniform or markedly pleomorphic, or form GIANT CELLS. Several classification schemes have been suggested.
