Photograph 1a.
Type 1 flake A. 4, 5 or 6-sided grey coloured flakes up to about 60µ
in diameter. Along the edges and on the surfaces of these flakes there
are often small round white glittering structures, the size of which
can vary between 0.5µ and approximatly 3µ. Towards the
upper right hand border of the flake is a ball-shaped white glittering
structure about 3µ in diameter. It is often possible to see
several flakes in one visual field (Photograph 1b and 1c). Sometimes
they exist together with a number of accumulations of granules lying
freely in the surrounding plasma, as seen in photograph 1d. Diagnosis:
Ovarian cancer.
