Adenoacanthoma, Mammary Gland, Mouse

  • Chapter

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

Abstract

Adenoacanthomas of the mouse mammary gland are grossly similar to other tumor types of this organ, i. e., they are round or coarsely nodular, well-cirumscribed, and easily separated from adjacent normal tissue. However, adenoacanthomas contain areas of yellowish or white flaky material on the cut surface in regions of extensive keratinization.
