The typical histological morphology for CCC. (a) Ciliated columnar epithelium of the respiratory tract is observed at the upper right margin (arrow). The CCC was located beneath the mucosa (Case 2, HE × 100). (b) Tumors were typically composed of oval, round, and polygonal cells with clear cytoplasm, arranged in nests or sheets, surrounded by fibrocellular stroma (Case 2, HE× 400). (c) In the conventional low-grade region of the HGT case, nuclei were uniform and small, round or oval, and had irregular, indented contours with finely dispersed or dark condensed chromatin (Case 1, HE× 200)
