Cholangiofibroma and Cholangiocarcinoma, Liver, Rat

  • Chapter
Book cover Digestive System

Part of the book series: Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals ((LABORATORY))

Abstract

Both cholangiofibroma and cholangiocarcinoma appear macroscopically as firm nodules frequently distributed in the liver in a multinodular fashion (Fig. 40). The tumor tissue, which usually has a grayish-white color, may also show yellow areas. The macroscopic picture may become very complex and colorful when the cholangiocellular tumors are combined with hepatocellular carcinomas or malignant mesenchymal tumors, such as angiosarcomas.
