摘要:: The fine structure of representative regions of 13 osteoblastic osteogenic sarcomas was studied. These regions contained four morphologically distinguishable subtypes of osteoblastlike cells. In addition, fibroblastlike and chondroblastlike cells were present, along with multinucleated giant cells, leukocytes, macrophagelike cells, and small populations of histogenetically unclassifiable (but probably neoplastic) cells. The morphologic evidence was compatible with the view that the variations in appearance among the subgroups of osteoblastlike cells reflected differences in maturation and differentiation of these cells. In at least one subgroup, the morphologic findings suggested that the cells were capable of manufacturing a secretory product. The multinucleated giant cells occurring in genuine tumor areas appeared to be closely related to neoplastic osteoblasts. The presence of chondroblastlike cells in the tissues illustrates that cells with a diverging differentiation can occur in an osteoblast-dominated cell population. This agrees with the view that the neoplastic cells originate from a mesenchymal stem cell with potential for multifaceted differentiation.
