There is extensive infiltration of inter-trabecular spaces by a neoplastic round cell population. The infiltrating cells have abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm with eccentrically located hyperchromatic round-to-oval nuclei consistent with consistent with proplasmacytes (haematoxylin and eosin stain, original magnification x200).
