Abstract

The microscopy of the malignant cell has received the attention of large numbers of investigators, who have sought some definite morphological criterion of malignancy. The early literature of cancer research contains descriptions of abnormal cell structures and cytological processes which have been regarded as distinctive of cancerous growth. Subsequent investigations, however, have failed to establish any precise cytological diagnostic characteristic of cancer. The cells of new growths however, present a wide range of pathological variations. of particular interest from the point of view of cellular pathology, by which in some oases have been erroneously interpreted, and have consequently led to fallacious theories a to the origin of cancer.

This paper is devoted to the study of the cytology of the malignant cancerous cell, and special note has been made of the cytologiacal changes and phases occurring in this type of tissue.
