HISTOPATHOLOGICAL IDENTIFICATION OF BRAIN TUMORS 1. GLIOBLASTOMA MULTIFORME Pseudopallisading cells( cells lining up around necrosis) 2. EPENDYMOMA Perivascular pseudorosettes/rosettes ( tumor cells surrounding vessels) 3.MEDULOBLASTOMA Small cell blue Tumor with HOMER- WRIGHT Rosettes (halo of cells surrounding neuropil containing central region) 4. OLIGODENDROGLIOMA Fried egg appearance. This is the normal appearance of Oligodendrocytes, however, increase in Oligodendrocytes must raise the suspicion of Oligodendroglioma. 5. PILOCYTIC ASTROCYTOMA Rosenthal fibres- eosinophilic(pink) bodies 6. HEMANGIOBLASTOMA thinning of capillaries with minimally intervening parenchyma. Also, increase in erythropoetin production 7. MENINGIOMA Whorled pattern with Psammoma bodies ( dystrophic calcification)
