Alveolar Cell Carcinoma

Review of the Literature, Clinico-Pathological Considerations, and Report of Two Cases

CAROL G. POPP M.D., F.C.C.P.1; FRED C. COLLER M.D.2; and GEORGE H. HOBBS M.D., F.C.C.P.3

1 Resident, St. John's Hospital.
2 Pathologist, Missouri State Sanatorium.
3 Staff Physician, Missouri State Sanatorium.

1. Alveolar cell carcinoma has been discussed with reference to etiology, histogenesis and histopathology.

2. Two illustrative case reports with emphasis on differential diagnosis have been presented.

3. Presence of the columnar epithelial lining of the alveolar framework with papillary projections, loss of polarity of the hyperchromatic and pheomorphic nuclei of these cells, lack of invasion of alveolar septa and normal bronchioli favor the theory of an intrinsic low malignant alveolar tumor.
