2 Fig. 1 A, Representative photomicrograph of LCNEC. Organoid pattern, palisading, and necrosis are shown. (Hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification 100×.) B, Tumor cells are large and polygonal with abundant and finely granular cytoplasm, easily discernible nucleoli in some cells. Note also rosette-like structures.
