Flerkärniga celler (sammansmälta makrofager) som är typiska för granulomatös inflammation, som uppstår runt främmande materia i huden. Till utseendet liknar de Langhansjätteceller, men främmandekroppsjätteceller har mer kromatin, och deras kärnor är oregelbundet spridda i cytoplasman.
Multinucleated cells (fused macrophages), characteristic of granulomatous inflammation, which form around exogenous material in the skin. They are similar in appearance to Langhans giant cells (GIANT CELLS, LANGHANS), but foreign-body giant cells have more abundant chromatin and their nuclei are scattered in an irregular pattern in the cytoplasm.
