What are some common histological changes in cancer?
In cancer, histological changes can include increased cell proliferation, abnormal cell morphology, and loss of normal tissue architecture. For instance, in adenocarcinoma, glandular tissue exhibits disorganized and irregular glandular structures. Nuclear atypia, characterized by enlarged and irregularly shaped nuclei, is also a common feature. Identifying these changes helps in determining the type and grade of cancer, guiding treatment decisions.
