Palisading Necrosis Definition

A morphologic appearance consisting of small, irregular regions of necrosis surrounded by dense accumulations of tumor cells; the tumor cells are more densely packed at the edge of the necrosis than in other regions of the tumor and thus appear to "palisade" around the necrotic zone.
