| 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) |
| 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) |
| 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) |

1. large polyhedral cells of connective tissue origin. 2. highly phagocytic, modified macrophages, resembling epithelial cells, having large, pale and vesicular nuclei with abundant, eosinophilic cytoplasm, which are characteristic of granulomatous inflammation; they may coalesce to form multinucleate giant cells. 3. pinealocytes.

| epithelioid h. |
a rare vascular neoplasm occurring in the medium to large veins of the distal extremities of adults, particularly young males; it may be benign or malignant and is characterized by proliferation of epithelioid or histiocytoid endothelial cells lining dilated vascular channels.

| epithelioid l. |
a relatively rare smooth muscle tumor, usually of the stomach, in which the cells are polygonal rather than spindle-shaped; called also bizarre l. and leiomyoblastoma.
