[The ultrastructure of the chromaffin cells of the adrenal medullary substance in different forms of pheochromocytoma].
The ultrastructure of adrenal medullar pheochromocytoma cells has no specific features, although these cells are characterized by morphological signs of high functional activity. Secretory granules of pheochromocytoma cells have variable morphology and electron density. Granule content is released from cells by diffusion or exocytosis. The structure of adrenocytes and noradrenocytes has features which allow to distinguish cell types from each other.
