摘要:
Malignant eccrine spiradenomas (MES) are exceedingly rare and their immunohistochemical and ultrastructural features have not been fully characterized. We studied two cases, one of them immunohistochemically and electron microscopically. Patient I had a 25-year history of multiple exophytic tumors involving the scalp, the skin of the face, and the torso. Of the lesions removed, ten were spiradenomas, two with malignant changes, and three were cylindromas. The malignant areas showed loss of tubular and nesting patterns, lack of two cell populations, and contained anaplastic cells with high mitotic rate. The immunohistochemical findings were consistent with eccrine differentiation. Patient 2 had a cystlike mass of long duration in the right groin. Histologically, the mass consisted of nodules of benign eccrine spiradenomas adjacent to a ductal-cystic mass lined by anaplastic cells, but areas of squamous and glandular differentiation were also present. Conclusions: (a) Case 1 is probably the first reported MES associated with multiple spiradenomas and cylindromas. (b) Cytodifferentiation in MES is variable, sometimes with almost complete loss of eccrine differentiation. (c) Identification of adjacent spiradenomas may be required for definite diagnosis of MES. (d) Clinical history of longstanding lesions with recent fast growth warrants tissue diagnosis.

摘要:
Merkel cells (MCs) have been a subject of investigation in human and animal studies for over a century, but their origin, function(s), and exact distribution in human skin remain largely unknown. The objectives of the present study were to quantify these cutaneous neuroendocrine cells in fetal and adult human skin, using an immunohistochemical marker (neuron-specific enolase) and morpho-metric methods. Our results indicate that, in postnatal life, MC are sparsely distributed along the undersurface of epidermal and occasionally adnexal epithelium in an approximate range of 0.1–1.0 MCs per centimeter of basal zone. They are most numerous on volar skin and least on genital skin, and on the face they have a primarily perifollicular orientation. Fetal samples have shown that MCs appear between the 15th and 18th week of gestation and are most abundant on volar skin. They appear to arise within the epidermis, and are initially numerous and later diminish with increasing gestational age. Their predominance in intrauterine life suggests a functional role in growth and development.

摘要:
Dermatofibroma (DF), or cutaneous fibrous histiocytoma, is a common cutaneous tumor with many variants that may arise from alterations in the morphology and composition of its various components. One type that has not received much attention is DF with osteoclast-like giant cells. Two cases of this rare tumor are described. The importance of this tumor lies in the possible histologic confusion with a variety of benign and malignant neoplasms, including giant cell tumor of tendon sheath, giant cell tumor of bone, and giant cell reparative granuloma.

摘要:
The histologic and immunohistochemical characteristics of 49 skin biopsy specimens from 49 patients with extramammary Paget's disease were studied. Patients with extramammary Paget's disease with and without underlying malignant disease were identified. Associated malignant lesions, present in 16 patients (33%), were transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder (n = 8). adenocarcinoma underlying the skin (n = 3). adenocarcinoma of the anus (n = I), adenocarcinoma of the vulva (n = I ), apocrine carcinoma (n = I ), prostate carcinoma (n = I), and carcinoma metastatic to the lung (n = I). The main histologic feature was the presence of Paget's cells, predominantly at the base of the epidermis. In 6% of the cases, well-defined nests of large Paget's cells mimicked melanocytic nests. Carcinoembryonic antigen and Cam 5.2 (a monoclonal antibody that stains 40-kDa. 45-kDa. and 52.5-kDa low molecular weight keratins) were localized to the Paget's cells in 42 of 45 (93%) and 29 of 41 cases (71%), respectively. Forty-four of 46 lesions (96%) were much positive, as determined by Hale's colloidal iron stain. Absence of staining for colloidal iron and carcinoembryonic antigen occurred somewhat more frequently in patients with underlying malignant disease than in patients without tumors (13% vs. 0% mucin negative and 13% vs. 3% carcinoembryonic antigen negative, respectively). Although immunohistochemical staining for low molecular weight keratin may be used to confirm the diagnosis of extramammary Paget's disease, Cam 5.2 is not as sensitive as the colloidal iron or carcinoembryonic antigen stain.

摘要:
Cutaneous B-cell lymphomas are rare neoplasms that can present as lesions involving solely the skin or develop in association with a systemic lymphoma. Histologically they are often difficult to differentiate from pseudolymphomas, and the use of immunohistochemistry may be necessary to correctly classify them. We report a study of multiple skin lesions in a patient who initially presented with multiple pseudolymphomas, apparently associated with an immune response to the dye of his tattoos. Over a period of 4 years his skin lesions evolved from histologically benign and immunologically polyclonal pseudolymphomas to a histologically malignant and immunologically monoclonal B-cell large cell lymphoma. Genotypic analysis with a probe for the heavy-chain immunoglobulin gene demonstrated the presence of clonal B-cell populations in all of the pseudolymphoma biopsy samples as well as in the subsequent lymphoma tissue samples, with a pattern of clonal bands suggestive of evolution of the B-cell clones. These findings suggest that the development of B-cell lymphoma in this patient was related to a persistent abnormal immune response to the chronic antigenic stimulus of the dye of the tattoo. The presence of clonal B-cell populations in pseudolymphoma by Southern blot analysis may be useful in predicting those patients who will subsequently develop overt lymphoma.

摘要:
We report a patient with a keratoacanthoma of the scalp in which there was invasion of several medium-sized vessels by the tumour at a distance from the main lesion. A marked inflammatory response within the invaded vessels as well as a benign clinical course do not suggest that this phenomenon represents malignant transformation.

摘要:
A case of multicentric reticulohistiocytosis is presented with extensive immunohistochemical study of the infiltrate in both paraffin and cryostat sections. Factor XIIIa dermal dendrocyte marker was demonstrated in the cytoplasm of histiocytes, which has not been reported previously in this disease. In addition, the S100 protein stained positive. This immunophenotyping study suggests a dermal dendrocyte lineage with an unusual expression of S100 protein.

摘要:
We report a case of verruciform xanthoma of the ear in a 79-year-old man. The case is unique in that it contained an area of solar keratosis. In situ hybridization using biotin-labeled probe cocktails for human papillomavirus types 6/11, 16/18, and 31/33/35 yielded negative results.

摘要:
Localized granuloma annulare (GA) is a cutaneous disorder characterized by the formation of palisading necrobiotic granulomas. Although trauma and vasculitis have been considered, the etiology of most cases remains obscure and the disease is generally considered to be idiopathic. The condition may occur at any age and at any site, but usually involves the hands or feet of children or young adults, predominantly affecting females. We present two cases occurring as nodules involving the external ears of males. One of these showed a bilateral distribution and was clearly related to trauma.
