Neuroendocrine or poorly preserved cells?

Hello everyone,

I have some interesting photos from a FNA from a 10yr M English Setter. The cells are from a 1cm cutaneous mass on top of the tail. It has a draining tract that occasionally opens up and leaks serous fluid. Do these look neuroendocrine with the mostly naked nuclei? One photo is at lower power and has the cells in question circled to give an idea of the cellularity. Unfortunately the color got washed out. It was difficult to find any cells with intact cytoplasm.

The mass is getting removed on Tuesday. I hope the owner agrees to submit to path. Thanks!
