pubmed:abstractText |
Histiocytosis X, multicentric reticulohistiocytosis, juvenile xanthogranuloma, the "fibrous" type of dermatofibroma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, and malignant fibrous histiocytoma are all characterized by dermal and/or subcutaneous infiltrates composed at least partially of cells having morphologic features suggestive of histiocytes. Paraffin-embedded tissues representing these conditions were stained for lysozyme (muramidase) with a peroxidase-antiperoxidase technic. The cells of juvenile xanthogranuloma were rich in lysozyme. Some of the cells of histiocytosis X showed a positive pattern, and the cells of the other three conditions were essentially negative. This study confirmed the histiocytic nature of juvenile xanthogranuloma and multicentric reticulohistiocytosis, supported the interpretation that there is a histiocytic component in the lesions of histiocytosis X, and cast some doubt on the alleged histiocytic nature of "fibrous" dermatofibroma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, and malignant fibrous histiocytoma.
