Light microscopy revealed adenomatous formation with dark granules giving a positive Grimelius silver reaction in the lumen and cytoplasm of chief cells. Electron microscopy showed that the tumor consisted mainly of clear cells and a few dark cells. Electron dense granules were observed both in the cytoplasm of the tumor cells and in the lumen.
