3 FIGURE 2 Endobronchial ultrasound biopsies at the time of recurrence. A, Representative image of diffuse tubulopapillary proliferation of mesothelial origin with invasion of the adipose tissue. B, Immunohistochemical staining-diffuse cytoplasmic and nuclear staining with anticalretinin of mesothelial cells. Few cells are observed between adipocytes (magnification ×400). C, Tubular architecture. Mesothelial cells are cuboid with central round nuclei without mitosis (hematoxylin & eosin stain, magnification ×400).
