Description
This book provides an in-depth exploration of "clear cells," a unique group of cells characterized by their vacuolated cytoplasm, which appears clear under conventional histological staining. These cells can be found in various normal and pathological conditions, especially in the oral and para-oral regions. The text outlines the cytological characteristics of clear cells, their histochemical identification through special stains, and their role in various neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions. Special focus is given to clear cell tumors, their origins, and their significance in odontogenic, salivary gland, and metastatic lesions. This resource is essential for understanding clear cell pathologies in head and neck regions.
