| epithelioid cells | Characteristic cells of granulomatous hypersensitivity. They appear as large, flattened cells with increased endoplasmic reticulum. They are believed to be activated macrophages that have differentiated as a result of prolonged antigenic stimulation. Further differentiation or fusion of epithelioid cells is thought to produce multinucleated giant cells (giant cells). (12 Dec 1998) |

| haemangioendothelioma, epithelioid | A tumour of medium-to-large veins, composed of plump-to-spindled endothelial cells that bulge into vascular spaces in a tombstone-like fashion. These tumours are thought to have "borderline" aggression, where one-third develop local recurrences, but only rarely metastasize. It is unclear whether the epithelioid haemangioendothelioma is truly neoplastic or an exuberant tissue reaction, nor is it clear if this is equivalent to kimura's disease (see angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia). (12 Dec 1998) |

| nevus, epithelioid and spindle cell | A benign compound nevus occurring most often in children before puberty, composed of spindle and epithelioid cells located mainly in the dermis, sometimes in association with large atypical cells and multinucleate cells, and having a close histopathological resemblance to malignant melanoma. The tumour presents as a smooth to slightly scaly, round to oval, raised, firm papule or nodule, ranging in colour from pink-tan to purplish red, often with surface telangiectasia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| epithelioid | <anatomy> Like epithelium; as, epithelioid cells. Origin: Epithelium. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| epithelioid cell | <cell biology> In a general sense, a cell that has an appearance that is similar to that of epithelial cells: used specifically of the very flattened macrophages found in granulomas (e.g. In tubercular lesions). (18 Nov 1997) |
| epithelioid cell nevus | A benign, slightly pigmented or red superficial small skin tumour composed of spindle-shaped, epithelioid, and multinucleated cells that may appear atypical; most common in children, but also appearing in adults. Synonym: benign juvenile melanoma, epithelioid cell nevus, spindle cell nevus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| leiomyoma, epithelioid | A relatively rare smooth muscle tumour found most frequently in the wall of the gastrointestinal tract, especially in the stomach. It is similar to other smooth muscle tumours but may become very large and haemorrhage and exhibit small cystic areas. Simple excision is almost always curative. (12 Dec 1998) |
| absorptive cells of intestine | Cell's on the surface of villi of the small intestine and the luminal surface of the large intestine that are characterised by having microvilli on their free surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| air cells | Air-containing spaces in the skull. See: pulmonary alveolus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| air cells of auditory tube | Occasional small air cells in the inferior wall of the auditory tube, near the tympanic orifice, communicating with the tympanic cavity. Synonym: cellulae pneumaticae tubae auditivae, air cells of auditory tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Alpha cells | Alpha cell's of pancreas or of anterior lobe of hypophysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha cells of anterior lobe of hypophysis | Acidophil cell's that constitute about 35% of the cell's of the anterior lobe. There are two varieties: one that elaborates somatotropin, another that elaborates prolactin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alpha cells of pancreas | Cell's of the islets of Langerhans that secrete glucagon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amniogenic cells | Cell's from which the amnion develops. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anabiotic cells | Cell's that are capable of resuscitation after apparent death; the existence of anabiotic tumour cell's is postulated to explain the recurrence of a cancer after a very long symptomless period following operation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angioblastic cells | Those cell's in the early embryo from which primitive blood cell's and endothelium develop. (05 Mar 2000) |
