Invasive breast carcinoma with hyaline globules ("thanatosomes")

Hyaline globules (thanatosomes) have been observed in many neoplastic and non-neoplastic processes. They represent terminal cytoplasmic structures associated with cytoplasmic blebbing, which are related to cell injury and apoptosis. Thanatosomes are reported rarely in breast tumors. Here we describe a case of invasive breast cancer of no special type with abundant thanatosomes.
