If someone says c-myc oncogene is translocated at t(8;14), closely linked to EBV infection, +lipods with Oil red O, high grade, numerous mitoses, most malignant ----- in kids. There is a pathological wording or slang associated with this dyscrasia. What is this "path talk" and what exactly does it mean??

There is a saying that goes with this disease . For example "fried egg appearance", "nutmeg liver", "psuedopalisade arrangement", "flea bitten kidneys", "egg shell calcifications" What exactly does it mean??

Oh... I think you are asking about the "starry sky" appearance which is due to the macrophages that have taken up the cell debris. Am I right?
