What happens during the disease - malignant neoplasm: hepatoblastoma

Новообразование обычно поражает правую долю печени, состоит из одного или нескольких узлов беловато-желтого цвета, не имеющих капсулы, свободно прорастающих в печеночную ткань и способных продуцировать желчь. На разрезе неоплазия имеет четко очерченное, дольчатое строение с очагами кровоизлияний и некроза. Гепатобластома возникает из эмбриональных клеток печени и содержит незрелые гепатоциты, находящиеся на разных стадиях развития и неспособные к выполнению нормальных функций. В современной онкологии выделяют эпителиальный и смешанный (эпителиально-мезенхимальный) морфологические типы опухоли.

 

Эпителиальный тип гепатобластомы характеризуется наличием эмбриональных, фетальных и мелкоклеточных недифференцированных клеточных структур. Опухоли из эмбриональных и фетальных клеток часто содержат очаги экстрамедуллярного кроветворения и сосудистые «озера» (расширенные сосуды, включающие эритроциты и костномозговые клетки). Мелкоклеточный недифференцированный компонент представлен лимфоцитоподобными клетками с высокой митотической активностью.

 

Смешанный тип гепатобластомы сочетает в себе фетальный и/или эмбриональный виды гепатоцитов с компонентами мезенхимы (фиброзной, хондроидной, остеоидной ткани). Смешанный тип новообразования также может содержать тератоидные структуры: островки многослойного плоского или железистого эпителия, поперечнополосатой мышечной ткани, меланинсодержащие клетки.
