S100 protein-positive cells (S100+ cells) in 36 cases of T-cell lymphoma (T-ML) in the lymph node and 15 cases of T-ML in the skin were analyzed immunohistologically in order to study their quantitative features in adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL). The T-MLs were categorized according to the updated Kiel classification, and the T-cell pleomorphic type (Pleo) was subcategorized into 3 subtypes: Pleo-ATLL, Pleo-clear and Pleo-others. The population of S100+ cells and the first to fifth minimal distances of every S100+ cell were measured on micrographs of paraffin sections that had reacted to anti-S100 protein antibody according to the ABC method. Lymphoblastic and chronic lymphocytic leukemia types showed low populations of S100+ cells and long values of the first minimal distance. T-zone lymphoma without follicles and angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with dysproteinemia-type T-ML had high populations and low values of the first minimal distance. Among the three subtypes of Pleo in the lymph node, Pleo-ATLL gave the highest population and the shortest value of the first minimal distance of S100+ cells, but this trend was not found in the skin. Clusters of more than five S100+ cells were more common in the Pleo-ATLL subtype than in the other two subtypes. The increase and clustering of S100+ cells in Pleo-ATLL suggests that the lymphoma cells act on S100+ cells as a helper.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Five antibodies, 2D.1 (pan-leukocyte), AE-1,3 (anti-keratin), B72.3 (anti-carcinoma), ME 1-14 (alpha-chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan) and polyclonal S-100 protein (P-S100), were tested to determine if this panel could be used immunocytochemically to differentiate melanoma from nonmelanoma. A total of 161 cases were evaluated: 145 fine needle aspirates of various body sites and 16 effusions, consisting of 52 melanomas, 41 adenocarcinomas, 11 squamous cell carcinomas, 14 undifferentiated carcinomas, 8 small cell carcinomas, 8 miscellaneous carcinomas, 8 primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors, 7 lymphomas/leukemias, 4 sarcomas and 8 benign effusions. The 52 melanomas were stained by ME 1-14 (in 31 cases) and by P-S100 (in 39 cases), but not by B72.3, AE-1,3 or 2D.1. The 82 carcinomas reacted with P-S100 (in 25 cases), B72.3 (in 37 cases), AE-1,3 (in 68 cases) and 2D.1 (in 1 case), but not with ME 1-14. Lymphomas were stained only by 2D.1 (5 of 7 cases). The eight primary CNS tumors reacted solely with ME1-14 (in 3 cases) and P-S100 (in 3 cases). The eight benign effusions exhibited staining by ME 1-14 (in 1 case), P-S100 (in 1 case), AE-1,3 (in 3 cases) and 2D.1 (in 8 cases), but not by B72.3. Thirty-six cases (including 11 melanomas) failed to stain with any antibody. In summary, 41 of 52 melanomas and 4 of 8 CNS tumors stained with ME1-14, P-S100 or both and were negative for B72.3, AE-1,3 and 2D.1. Only 2 of 101 other nonmelanomas exhibited this pattern. Thus, this panel distinguishes melanoma from other neoplastic and nonneoplastic processes in the majority of cases.

We have tested the diagnostic value in malignant melanoma of HMB45, a monoclonal antibody available for use on paraffin-embedded tissue. MATERIAL AND METHOD. Tissues tested. The following pathological tissues were tested: 10 intradermal and 11 compound naevi; 6 spitz naevi; 20 dysplastic naevi; 10 blue naevi; 2 Bednar's tumours; 6 Sutton naevi; 15 melanonychias; 21 cutaneous and 11 ocular malignant melanomas (MM), and 3 achromic metastases. Control tissues were: vitiligo (20), carcinoma (5), malignant schwannoma of the orbit (1), soft tissue sarcoma (5) and malignant lymphoma (5). Antibodies. The antibodies used were antiprotein S100, antivimentin, anticytokeratin (KL1), monoclonal antileucocyte (CD45) antibodies and HMB45, a monoclonal antibody of the IgG 1 type obtained from lymph node metastases from pigmented malignant melanomas. RESULTS. None of the control tissues were stained by the HMB Ab. Intradermal naevi did not react positively. Compound naevi: the juntional cells were stained by HMB45 in 2/10 cases. Dysplastic naevi: HMB45 showed heterogeneous reactivity of junctional cells in 15/20 cases, and this correlated with the degree of atypia. Blue naevi: HMB45 stained the superficial and deep cells in 3/10 cases. Bednar's tumour: no cell was stained by HMB45. Spitz naevi: HMB45 gave an intensely positive reaction of junctional cells in 4/5 cases and a weaker reaction of dermal cells. Sutton naevi: the naevus cells were not stained by HMB45 in 5/6 cases. In simple melanocytic hyperplasia of the nail bed, only a few atypical cells were stained. In superficially spreading melanoma (SSM) all neoplastic cells were stained by HMB45 in proportion to their degree of atypia. Residual naevus cells were negative. The anti S100 and the antivimentin antibodies stained all neoplastic and naevus cells. In nodular melanoma (NM), HMB45 stained all neoplastic cells in proportion to their degree of atypia. The antivimentin Ab stained the neoplastic cells, and so did the anti-S100 Ab which also stained inflammatory cells. In acral-lentiginous melanoma (ALM), HMB stained the dermal tumoral cells moderately and the junctional cells more strongly. In ocular melanoma, HMB45 strongly stained the fusiform cells and less strongly the epithelioid cells. In achromic metastases from cutaneous malignant melanomas, HMB45 strongly stained the neoplastic cells but did not stain the peritumoral cells. DISCUSSION. The purpose of this study was to compare the value of HMB45 with that of other immunohistochemical staining methods A. Main data from the literature. (ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The case is reported of a woman aged 60 yrs who presented with systemic symptoms and who was found to have proteinuria of 3.5 g per day. A renal biopsy revealed numerous neoplastic cells filling many of the glomerular capillary lumina. Immunoperoxidase stains revealed that the phenotype of the malignant cells was LCA+, L26+, MB2+, UCHL1-, CD43-, CAM5.2- and S100-, indicating that they were of lymphoid origin and B-cell lineage. The diagnosis of intravascular large cell lymphoma was therefore made. Remission was induced by chemotherapy with CAVP (cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine and prednisone). A subsequent relapse was treated with cyclophosphamide, VP16 and prednisone, and again remission occurred. This is the first case known to the authors in which the diagnosis of intravascular large cell lymphoma was made on renal biopsy. We confirm the experience of others that chemotherapy with regimens utilized in other varieties of large cell lymphoma may also be appropriate for this unusual neoplasm.

Twenty-one cases of anaplastic carcinoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses were diagnosed by conventional light microscopy and the use of monoclonal antibodies to epithelial membrane antigen and cytokeratin. Lymphomas and malignant melanomas were excluded by immunohistochemical staining for leukocyte common antigen and S100 protein respectively. The median survival time for these patients was only 1 year despite all forms of treatment. Two patients survived for a longer period and their cases had unusual pathologic features that may have influenced the prognosis.

The immunoprofiles of 121 germ cell and trophoblastic neoplasms were defined, using a battery of antibodies against cytokeratin (CK), vimentin (VIM), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), S-100 protein, leukocyte common antigen (LCA), UCHL-1, LN-2, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), chromogranin A, Leu-7, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT), and the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (BHCG). In addition to 85 neoplasms of testicular origin, the cases included eight ovarian germ cell tumors and 28 extragonadal neoplasms. All tissues had been subjected to formalin fixation and paraffin embedding. Similar immunoreactivity patterns were seen in gonadal and extragonadal neoplasms, gestational and nongestational choriocarcinomas, components of mixed germ cell tumors and their pure counterparts, and metastatic and primary lesions. Placental alkaline phosphatase was a sensitive marker of germ cell differentiation, and expression of this marker in the absence of EMA appeared to be a staining pattern unique to germ cell tumors. Both LCA and S100 were absent in neoplastic germ cells, and thus were useful in differentiating these tumors from malignant lymphoma and malignant melanoma, respectively. Cytokeratin was helpful in distinguishing seminomas/dysgerminomas from nonseminomatous germ cell tumors, although 10% of seminomas showed focal or diffuse cytokeratin reactivity. Finally, 75% of all germ cell neoplasms displayed NSE, calling the specificity of this determinant into question.

We report a new case of histiocytic proliferation, which histologically resembles histiocytosis X, in a lymph node affected by non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma. This brings the total number of such reported cases to 12. Histiocytosis X cells, with folded nuclei, expressed S100 protein and an antigen recognized by anti-CD1 monoclonal antibodies. Ultrastructural study did not show any Birbeck granules and demonstrated a morphology similar to that of interdigitating cells. In the absence of Birbeck granules, the term 'Langerhans' cell granulomatosis' is not correct and should be replaced by either 'interdigitating cell granuloma' according to immunohistochemistry and ultrastructure or 'histiocytosis X-like granuloma' according to optical morphology. The fact that some cells with folded nuclei were positive for lysozyme argues in favor of the existence of transitional cells between histiocytes hnd interdigitating cells. The 11 other reported cases were reviewed. In 6 cases, this type of granuloma was associated with B cell lymphoma. In 3 cases the lymphoma was also probably of B cell type. In 2 cases, no information could be found. We could speculate that these histiocytosis X-like lesions are reactive, resulting from immune disturbances due to the lymphoma and/or the treatment.

Four males and 6 females, 5-66 (mean 27) years, with supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNETs) have been treated in one center in a 5-year period. Symptoms and signs had been present from 4 days to 8 years and were highly variable. The frontal hemisphere was involved in 6 cases. Seven patients have died but with a combination of surgery and radiotherapy 3 patients have survived 20 months or longer. All tumors were composed of rounded, hyperchromatic undifferentiated cells but there were focal areas of astrocytic (5 cases), mesenchymal (4 cases) or neuronal differentiation (1 case). In 9 of the 10 cases a proportion of the undifferentiated round cells stained with antibodies to GFAP. Seven of these also showed nuclear staining for S100 protein and 6 of these, plus the tumor that did not stain for GFAP, had cytoplasmic staining for neuron specific enolase. Six tumors stained with antibodies to vimentin but there was no staining for common leukocyte antibody, cytokeratin or myoglobin. These results, in particular those with GFAP, indicate that PNETs undergo differentiation even in areas of apparent morphological uniformity. Furthermore, immunohistochemistry is useful in distinguishing PNETs from other "small blue cell tumors" such as malignant lymphoma and undifferentiated secondary carcinoma.

In six patients with systemic symptoms, four of which had lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates in the bone marrow splenectomy was performed because of suspected malignant lymphoma, with resolution of clinical symptoms. The spleen showed epithelioid granulomas, and neither splenic tissue nor clinical follow-up revealed evidence of malignant lymphoma. Immunohistochemical analysis documented an identical phenotype in epithelioid and giant cells as well as in large numbers of CD4 + lymphocytes and S100 + interdigitating reticulum cells within the granulomas. These cases are interpreted to represent epithelioid granulomatosis with primary and/or predominant manifestation in the spleen.

Ten years after the onset of hydroa vacciniforme (HV), a 16-year-old boy developed edema and red induration of the face, ears, and dorsa of the hands. Aggravation of cutaneous manifestations was associated with general malaise, headache, fever, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, and an increase of several serum enzymes. The vesicle was situated intraepidermally with thrombosis and hemorrhage underneath. This confirmed the diagnosis of HV. In addition, dense cell infiltrate was seen in deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Histologic and immunohistochemical studies of the dermal cell infiltrate and lymph node showed an infiltrate of helper T lymphocytes with an atypia and histiocytic cells (S100[-], alpha-subunit[+]). Hence, we concluded HV and malignant lymphoma coexisted in this patient.
