Three cases of so-called pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma have been studied for endothelial markers (alkaline phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, factor VIII-related antigen, and Ulex europaeus I lectin), for intermediate filaments (keratin, vimentin), and for carcinoembryonic and epithelial membrane antigen. Not one of the neoplasms expressed endothelial markers, carcinoembryonic antigen, or keratin reactivity. The tumor cells showed a positive reaction for epithelial membrane antigen and vimentin. The findings exclude an endothelial origin for this group of tumors and favored an epithelial origin as the probable genesis of the neoplastic proliferation.

A total of five haemangiosarcomata and two benign haemangiomas arising in the mammary gland have been studied electron microscopically and by histochemical techniques. Malignant tumors were mainly composed of endothelial cells reactive to alkaline phosphatase and adenosine triphosphatase, and of pericytes and undifferentiated mesenchymal elements. A juvenile haemangioma showed a more structured wall with an increase of endoplasmic reticulum and filaments, and a diminution of membrane modulations and rod-like tubular bodies. A cavernous haemangioma showed an ultrastructure very similar to normal vessels. The ultrastructural and histochemical data suggest a blood vessel origin of mammary angiosarcomas and show that vascular neoplasms of the breast, benign or malignant, are composed of a combined proliferation of the different cell types present in the vessel wall, as described in other organs.
