Fig. 4 Microscopic findings. (a) Histopathological findings of the surgical specimen of the ascending colon (primary site). Moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma was observed. Glands were irregular and tortuous. The nuclei were elongated and stratified. (b) Histopathological findings of the biopsy specimen of the right mandible (metastatic site). Adenocarcinoma similar to the primary tumor and mandibular bone spicules (*) were observed. Bars: 100μm. Oral Science International , 22-25DOI: ( /S (16) ) Copyright © Terms and Conditions
