图中央可见核分裂象，周围是低分化鳞状细胞癌的多形性癌细胞和粉红色微小的角化蛋白。通常病理性核分裂多在恶性肿瘤中出现。
A mitotic figure is seen in the center, surrounded by a poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma with pleomorphic cells and minimal pink keratinization. In general, mitoses are more likely to be seen in malignant neoplasms. Remember, though, that normally cells are actively dividing in bone marrow, gonads, and gastrointestinal tract.
