Bronchiolar Adenoma, Lung, Mouse

  • Chapter
Respiratory System

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

Abstract

These adenomas are pearly white, spherical, subpleural tumors 2–4 mm in diameter, indistinguishable grossly from type II adenomas. Larger tumors, 0.5–1.0 cm in diameter, are frequently tan. Multiple mulberry-shaped nodules may protrude from the cut surfaces. Adenomas arise in the pleural, subpleural, and deeper parenchyma of the lung, and are equally represented in different lobes of the lung.
