Increased androgen binding in keloids: a preliminary communication.

Sex hormone binding protein analyses were performed on six keloids, the adjacent skin, and on six simple scars. A high level of androgen binding (510 to 1149 Fm/mg of cytosol protein) was found in the keloids. The estrogen and progesterone binding activities were low. Para-keloid tissues were found to have androgen binding of 177 to 476 Fm/mg of cytosol protein. Once again, estrogen and progesterone binding activities were low. In six simple scars, androgen binding was less than 1/10 of that found in the keloids (37 to 60 Fm/mg of cytosol protein); estrogen and progesterone binding was so low that it was almost undetectable. We believe this data suggests that localized hyperandrogen metabolism may play a causal or at least contributory role in the pathogenesis of keloids.

Cutaneous histiocytoid hemangioma.

Three cases of Kimura's disease or angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia without the characteristic inflammatory infiltrate are reported. These unusual variants support the contention that the common denominator of these vascular lesions, whether they occur in the skin or (more rarely) in extracutaneous sites, is a histiocytoid endothelial cell. Since the composition of the associated inflammatory cell infiltrate is highly variable, a more appropriate term for these lesions is "histiocytoid hemangioma."
