Description: High magnification micrograph of cholangiocarcinoma. H&E stain. Histologically, this is a cholangiocarcinoma as (1) atypical bile duct-like cells (left of image) extend from the tumour in an interlobular septum (the normal anatomical location of bile ducts), and (2) the tumour has the abundant desmoplastic stroma often seen in cholangiocarcinomas. A portal triad (upper-left of image) has a histologically normal bile duct. Related image Low mag. Intermed. mag. High mag. Very high mag.
