Figure 3. Bone marrow section with 100% cellularity (A H&E, 10×) and increased plasma cells, some of which show Mott cells and Dutcher bodies [arrowed in B and C, respectively. Images taken at 100× (Giemsa) and 20× (H&E) respectively]. The increased plasma cell infiltrates are highlighted with CD138, comprising 70–80% of marrow cellularity (D, IHC, 20×). Some of the plasma cells express CD117 (E, IHC, 20×). H&E – hematoxylin and eosin; IHC – immunohistochemistry.
