Definition

Fat globules are colorless, round, highly refractile and vary in size from 2 to 20 microns. They are an infrequent finding and always abnormal, occurring in the same tubular diseases as fatty casts. They occur singly and in small groups, appearing dark on low power and clear on high power. They may be accompanied by fatty casts or oval fat bodies. Neutral fats will stain with Sudan Black or Oil Red O.
