Figure 6. Pathological findings. (A, B) Hematoxylin and eosin staining. The proliferation of spindle-shaped cells can be observed; however, no signs of malignancy were detected: (A) low magnification; and (B) high magnification. (C, D) Immunostaining with an anti-FGF-23 antibody (AdipoGen Life Sciences, CA, USA) shows scattered FGF-23-positive cells: (C) low magnification; and (D) high magnification. FGF-23 – fibroblast growth factor-23.
