Spanish term

xantocítico

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Adnexal Cyst Report
Hello, colleagues.

Here is another term I couldn't figure out yet...
I’m translating a Right Adnexal Cyst report and I’m having difficulty understanding what some terms mean. The sentence reads (under the microscopic description):

Los citoplasmas son grandes en algunos sitios de aspecto xantocítico.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Laura

@liz I got 5 hits in English for "xanthocytic" e.g. "Juvenile xanthocytic astrocytoma"... although they may all refer to the same publication.

Strange that there is not a single instance of this on the net!

xanthocytic

A xanthocyte is a cell containing yellow pigment or that appears yellow. By saying some areas are xanthocytic /xantocítico, I believe they are saying that those areas appear yellow.
