“…This has given rise to the term 'Iympho-epithelioma', indicating a special form of tumour in which both types of cells share in the neoplastic process. Historically, lympho-epitheliomas have been sub-divided into the Regaud type (Jovin cited by Cappell, 1934) in which columns of carcinoma cells are surrounded by lymphocytes, and the Schmincke type (Schmincke cited by Cappell, 1934) in which the carcinoma cells are infiltrated by lymphocytes and may be individually scattered in a sea of lymphocytes.…”

“…(ii) Tumours of undifferentiated epithelial cells without the lymphoid stroma of lympho-epithelioma have been called transitional cell carcinoma, particularly when forming festoons of tumour cells in continuity with the surface (Ewing cited by Cappell, 1934). Again it is difficult on careful examination of a group of such neoplasms to separate them from squamous carcinoma.…”

Summary A survey of tumours derived from each of the four cell types of nasal epithelium is presented. Criticism is levelled at the adoption of additional terms for tissue types such as lympho-epithelium and transitional cell epithelium and tumours said to be derived from them. Electron microscopy is of assistance in classification particularly in the detection of evidence of keratin synthesis. The proposed classification of tumours of the nasal epithelium is: (1) Pseudostratified columnar epithelium: (a) papillary adenoma, (b) papillary carcinoma. (2) Squamous epithelium: (a) everted squamous papilloma, (b) inverted papilloma, (c) squamous carcinoma of any grade of differentiation from well differentiated to undifferentiated. (3) Melanocyte: malignant melanoma. (4) Olfactory neuroepithelium: olfactory neuroblastoma.

“…In general, these tumors show the picture of an undifferentiated epithelial neoplasm with considerable lymphocytic infiltration corresponding to the description given by Cappell (1934). In Singapore, a colony which has a cosmopolitan population, but in which the majority are people of Chinese race, the opportunity is afforded to study these tumors and to compare their relative incidence in different ethnic groups.…”

“…These primary thymic tumours-true " thymomata "may be termed " lympho-epitheliomata " (Grandhomme, 1900;Schmincke, 1921;Regaud, 1921), and are much less often malignant than are the primary lympho-epitheliomata of the tonsils, pharynx, and naso-pharynx (Cappell, 1934;Harvey, Dawson and Innes, 1937). For recent histological accounts of thymic lympho-epitheliomata, see Wu (1935) and Obiditsch (1937).…”
