Thread-Like Bridging Strands in the Adenomatoid Tumor of the Small Intestine

Abstract

Short letter to the editor as a comment on a case report on adenomatoid tumor of the small intestine published in the same journal previously. The comment stressed the importance of highly sensitive, specific and cheap diagnostic sign visible even in hematoxylin and eosin stained slides, the so called "thread-like bridging strands" or "the Hes bridges", which is largely unknown not only to the authors of the commented case report.
