A case of parachordoma in a 45-year-old female was described. Histologically, the recurrent lesion, in comparison with the primary tumor, demonstrated an increased cellular atypia and mitotic rate. The tumor cells expressed EMA, vimentin, S 100 protein, and also a trace desmin content was present. Electron microscopic study provided no characteristic features of the tumor type studied. Flow cytometric evaluation of the DNA demonstrated a diploid histogram with the relatively high S-phase. Cytogenetic analysis revealed normal karyotype, but a deviation from the diploid state in the form of aneuploid metaphases with non-clonal structural chromosomal aberrations was observed.

D007381 Intermediate Filament Proteins Filaments 7-11 nm in diameter found in the cytoplasm of all cells. Many specific proteins belong to this group, e.g., desmin, vimentin, prekeratin, decamin, skeletin, neurofilin, neurofilament protein, and glial fibrillary acid protein.

D007621 Karyotyping Mapping of the KARYOTYPE of a cell. Karyotype Analysis Methods,Analysis Method, Karyotype,Analysis Methods, Karyotype,Karyotype Analysis Method,Karyotypings,Method, Karyotype Analysis,Methods, Karyotype Analysis
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009364 Neoplasm Recurrence, Local The local recurrence of a neoplasm following treatment. It arises from microscopic cells of the original neoplasm that have escaped therapeutic intervention and later become clinically visible at the original site.
