Low-power LM of the ovary. The section passes through a corpus luteum. Its outer aspect is highly folded (circle) and contains tightly packed granulosa and theca lutein cells, which surround a central cavity (*) filled with coagulated blood and fibrous scar tissue. 6.5×. H&E.
LM of part of the corpus luteum. The large, polyhedral granulosa lutein cells (GL) have round nuclei and pale-staining cytoplasm. The cells encroach on a fibrin-containing blood-filled cavity (BC). Peripherally aggregated theca lutein cells (TL) are smaller and have more darkly stained nuclei than do granulosa lutein cells. Blood vessels (BV) are abundant peripherally; capillaries (arrows) invade the granulosa layer. 250×. H&E.
