How long have we known about glomeruli? Today’s teaching point is offered in honor of Marcello Malpighi (1628-1694), the Italian anatomist who is credited with having published the world’s first accurate description of glomerular structure (Bologna, Italy 1666). We learn from those who teach us!

A good 🔬clue to distinguish between mucocele-like lesion (MLL) vs. mucinous carcinoma is the frequent presence of neovascularization in the latter.
