Erythroid leukemia, megakaryocytic leukemia, histiocytic sarcoma, and mast cell sarcoma in mice.

Erythroid leukemia, megakaryocytic leukemia, histiocytic sarcoma, and mast cell sarcoma in mice.

(A) Erythroid leukemia. Note erythroblasts in liver (H&E, × 1000). (B) Megakaryocytic leukemia. Note various forms of immature neoplastic megakaryocytes (H&E, × 400). (C) (D) Histiocytic sarcoma: a relatively common tumor in mice that is rare in humans (H&E, × 400). (C) A solid sheet of eosinophilic histiocytes forming elongated or round patterns is seen. (D) Histiocytic sarcoma showing multinucleated histiocytes and vascular invasion in the liver. (E) A mast cell sarcoma showing a uniform population of small cells with prominent granular eosinophilic cytoplasm (H&E, × 400). (F) Giemsa stain of mast cell sarcoma shows strong metachromasia of many tumor cells. Metachromatic staining is also revealed by toluidine blue stain (Giemsa, × 400).
