Non-PRO Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Pathology Report - Ovarian Cyst
Country of origin: Mexico

This is from a pathology report of an ovarian cyst - under the sub-heading "Microscopic Description".

El quiste presenta revestimiento epitelial parcialmente preservado, constituido por celúlas cúbicas simples, con núcleo redondo, de localización basal, y borde apicial ciliado.

The cyst shows partially preserved epithelial lining comprised of simple cubic cells, with a round nucleus, of xxxxxxxxx and a ciliated apical border.

Any insight into "localización basal" would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (2): lorenab23, Helena Chavarria

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

at the base of the cells This is an excellent reference, thank you. Do you want to post "at the base of the cells" as an answer for grading?
lorenab23 Aug 19, 2014:
de localización basal If I am not mistaken it refers to the position of the nucleus within the cell. Please see here:
The nuclei are round or oval, are located at the base of the cells
