BACKGROUND
Collagenous crystalloids were previously observed in histologic sections of pleomorphic adenoma. However, to the best of our knowledge, there have been no English-language reports dealing with collagenous crystalloids in fine needle aspirates.
CASE
A fine needle aspiration specimen obtained from a mass in the hard palate of a 52-year-old female revealed collagenous crystalloids. The crystalloids were yellow to green, measured 30-50 microns in diameter and were radially arranged.
CONCLUSION
This case indicates that collagenous crystalloids in salivary gland aspirates may be a clue to the diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma.
背景
先前在多形性腺瘤的组织学切片中观察到胶原晶体。然而，据我们所知，尚无英文报道涉及细针穿刺抽吸物中的胶原晶体。
病例
从一名52岁女性硬腭肿物获取的细针穿刺抽吸标本显示有胶原晶体。这些晶体呈黄色至绿色，直径为30 - 50微米，呈放射状排列。
结论
该病例表明唾液腺抽吸物中的胶原晶体可能是多形性腺瘤诊断的线索。
