  2. Osler Institute – Pathology Board Review: Electron Microscopy • Acinar Cell Carcinoma • Zymogen granules 0.3 – 1.5 microns • Stacks of RER • Salivary gland • Pancreas • Pancreaticoblastoma • Immunopositive for • alpha-1 antitrypsin • Trypsin • Chymotrypsin • Lipase

  3. Osler Institute – Pathology Board Review: Electron Microscopy Adenocarcinoma – extracellular lumina, intestinal type microvilli

  4. Osler Institute – Pathology Board Review: Electron Microscopy • Neoplasms • Adenocarcinoma • Intracytoplasmic lumina • Microvilli • Junctional complexes
