Abstract: Summary.A specimen from a patient with an ectopic pinealoma located in the third ventricle was investigated by light and electron microscopy.The study has demonstrated many small membrane-limited electron-dense granules in the pinea]ocyte-like principal tumor cells. They were similar to those found in the normal pineal body of mammals and probably represent granules of biogenic amines.The literature of biochemical studies on the secretion of the pineal body and the pinealoma was reviewed as supportive evidence… Show more
