Preferred Label : adenoma, oxyphilic;
MeSH definition : A usually benign glandular tumor composed of oxyphil cells, large cells with small
irregular nuclei and dense acidophilic granules due to the presence of abundant MITOCHONDRIA.
Oxyphil cells, also known as oncocytes, are found in oncocytomas of the kidney, salivary
glands, and endocrine glands. In the thyroid gland, oxyphil cells are known as Hurthle
cells and Askanazy cells.;
