[Implants of fired ceramics in the dog. Preliminary study. Morphology of bone coaptation after 3 and 7 months].

An experimental study of biocompatibility for ceramic material was undertaken in dogs. We used 8 implants and 1 filling-up material in the alveolar bone. A regular radiographic control of the good coaptation and tolerance of these implants was done after various intervals. The sacrifice was performed at 3 and 7 months after the implantation. The good coaptation between alveolar bone and implant was demonstrated by means of different morphological methods. Thus, microradiographs of anatomical specimens, routine histological study following decalcification, analysis of some specimens without decalcification showed the tight coaptation between implant and alveolar bone, without any foreign-body granuloma or allergic reaction. Besides, by transmission and scanning electron microscopy, we could identify the various types of cells (macrophages, fibroblasts and osteoblasts) noted at the interface of the implant matrix at various intervals after the operation. By histoenzymological methods, we also tested the functional activity of these cells, peculiarly their possible osteogenic ability (alkaline phosphatase and ATPase highly positives in some of these cells).

[Central reparative giant cell granuloma of the jaw. Morphological study].

8 cases of central giant cell reparative granuloma of the jaws were morphologically studied. If the histological feature of this disease is theoretically characteristic (giant cells, fusiform cells, numerous vessels and more or less active osteogenesis) in fact other giant cells lesions, especially true giant cell tumors, often set a problem to the pathologist. In addition, the etiopathogenesis of that granuloma is discussed by means of the results of immunohistochemical, histoenzymological and ultrastructural findings.

[Cystic lymphoid hyperplasia of the parotid in relation to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV+). Apropos of 2 cases].

Cystic lymphoid hyperplasia of the parotid, a rare disease, was recently described in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. We reported here 2 new cases of this illness. The 2 HIV+ patients showed an enlargement of parotid gland. A superficial parotidectomy was performed. The histological and immunohistochemical studies were completed in one case by a histoenzymological and ultrastructural study. We could see numerous cystic cavities lined with a cylindrical or metaplastic malpighian epithelium and surrounded by a lymphoid tissue, similar to a true lymph node with germinal centers. In these lymphoid structures, we could find some epithelial remnants and numerous epimyoepithelial islands. Besides, anomalies similar to those described in persistent generalized lymphadenopathies were obvious: hyperplastic germinal centers with multiplication of B lymphocytes and thin mantle zone, perifollicular hypervascularization, numerous macrophages, plasmocytes and T lymphocytes with increase of T8 cytotoxic subset in interfollicular and paracortical areas. An early opportunist infection is suggested in the histogenesis of this disease.

[Intraepithelial neoplasm of the uterine cervix and angiogenesis: morphologic study].

Thirty uterine cervix specimens sampled following conization or total hysterectomy were studied using histology, histoenzymology (vessel phosphatase alkaline activity), and immunohistochemistry (demonstration of laminin and type IV collagen in epithelium and vessel basement membranes). Pathologic conditions included dystrophia, moderate dysplasia, severe dysplasia, and intraepithelial carcinoma. Results were compared to findings in a control group. We found that the severity of vascular abnormalities correlated positively with the severity of histologic epithelial lesions; this finding is consistent with colposcopic results. Anarchic angiogenesis with large, moniliform, tortuous vessels was seen in severe dysplasias and carcinomas. The vascular anomalies seem to precede the development of histologic lesions in some instances. Histogenesis of the abnormal vessels may involve production of an angiogenic factor by the cancerized epithelia.

[Cystic hamartoma of the mandibular angle. Apropos of a case].

A large cyst of mandibular angle was surgically removed in a 20 years-old woman. This cyst was discovered during childhood and was associated with a branchial para-mandibular cyst. It was histologically lined either with a malpighian epithelium with sebaceous islands or with a ciliated cylindrical epithelium. Because of its topography, its association with a branchial cyst and its histological feature quite similar to that of a cyst of thyroglossal duct, this cyst was thought to represent a simplified salivary ectopy composed only of a cystic secretory duct without any salivary parenchyma.

[Undifferentiated epithelioma of the parotid and cystadenolymphoma. Apropos of a case].

A case of undifferentiated epithelioma of the left parotid gland occurred 2 years after the removal of a cystadenolymphoma in the right parotid gland. The relationship of these two tumours was supported by several statements: the immunohistochemical study demonstrated in the epithelial cells of the 2 neoplasms the existence of ACE, usually thought as characteristic of cystadenolymphoma. Besides, it showed a high number of plasma cells secreting IgA in the stroma of the 2 tumours, the ultrastructural study performed on the epithelioma also demonstrated some similarities between epitheliomatous cells and epithelial cells of cystadenolymphomas (outlined epidermoid or glandular differentiation, numerous mitochondria). A peculiar, perhaps immunological mechanism could induce the cancerization, according to the theories used to explain the histogenesis of cystadenolymphoma.

[Value of modern imagery in the study of coronoido-malar malformations. Apropos of 2 cases].

We report two cases of mechanical limitation of buccal opening. CT scanning of bone anomalies diagnosed on standard radiography allowed to define malformation of the coronoid piston on the one hand, and the temporo-malar groove on the other: a combination of Langenbeck's and Jacob's disease in one case and Langenbeck's disease in the other. Coronoidectomy, systematically bilateral, demonstrated these morphological anomalies together with formation of coronoido-malar neo-arthrosis.

Cherubism. Histo-enzymological and ultrastructural study.

The 3 cases of cherubism reported affected the mandible. They were all studied by means of histo-enzymological and ultrastructural methods. This study demonstrated 3 stages in the morphological evolution of the disease, corroborated by clinical data. The 1st stage was characterized by an osteolytic granuloma with round, fusiform and giant-cells and a high level of activity of acid phosphatase. The 2nd stage showed repair with proliferation of highly active fibroblasts (increase in activity of leucine aminopeptidase). The 3rd stage exhibited an osteogenesis with high activity of alkaline phosphatase and ATPase. The pathogenesis of this rare osteodysplasia is discussed.

[Immunopathology of the labial salivary glands in Sjögren's syndrome and other autoimmune diseases].

73 minor salivary gland biopsies (lip biopsy) were performed in patients with primary and secundary Sjögren's syndrome and other collagen diseases without sicca syndrome were studied by means of immunohistochemistry. The results were compared to those obtained in sarcoidosis, sialadenitis and normal glands. In all cases of Sjögren's syndrome and of other sialadenites, we could note predominance of T-lymphocytes with an increase of T-Helpers and a T-suppressor ratio superior to 1. Besides, HLA-DR antigen was present in all the activated cells of lymphocytic infiltrates, in endothelial cells and in some epithelial ductal and acinous cells around the infiltrates. This method cannot permit to differentiate Sjögren's syndrome from the other sialadenites. But, it is very useful to appreciate the evolutivity of the disease (increase in B-lymphocytes in the initial period and in evolutive phases) and to detect its change into pseudolymphoma (polyclonal cells with increase in B-cells) and into malignant lymphoma (usually monoclonal B-lymphocytes proliferation).

[Restoration of the alveolar crest with a biomaterial filler. A clinical and histological study].

The implantation of biocompatible hydroxyapatite is used for human mandibular ridge augmentation in edentulous patients. Histologically, we studied such a material after a long period of implantation (1 1/2 to 2 years) in two patients. The histologic study showed a narrow meshed net of collagen tissue surrounding the hydroxylapatite particles. In the periphery of that tissue, we could see an osteogenesis: the bony trabeculae thus formed firstly were made of an immature bony matrix with an irregular "woven" pattern; secondarily, a mature bone, quite similar to the normal bone, occurred. In our two observations, there was an unusual inflammatory reaction characterized by cellular infiltration of lipophages, lymphocytes and plasma cells in the connective tissue and in one case by a true ischaemic necrosis with granuloma and bacteria. In spite of that inflammation, the whole material was well tolerated, without foreign-body granuloma. Such a granuloma was only found in superficial areas of the gingiva, around extruded particles of the biomaterial.

[Fibroblasts of the normal human periodontium. Morphology and functional behavior in lattice collagen].

In this preliminary report, we studied human periodontal normal fibroblasts cultured on a fibrillary tridimensional net of collagen (lattice). As demonstrated by scanning and transmission electron microscope, cells were closely binded to this fibrillar net. They kept their functional activities (oxidatives enzymes, leucine aminopeptidase). As seen in monolayer cultures by immunocytochemical methods, the majority of these cells secreted type I collagen (70 to 80% of them: 15 to 25% secreting type III collagen). Besides, the capacity of retraction of collagen lattices, quite similar to that of skin lattices, was expressed by a decreasing curve up to the 8th day. In order to study the possible role of fibroblastic biological changes in periodontal disease, later on we shall compare the characteristics of normal fibroblast to those of fibroblast taken in periodontal disease.

[Histiocytosis X of the jaws. II. Structural, histo-enzymologic and immunohistochemical study].

A series of cases of histiocytosis X was studied by immunohistochemistry (20 cases), histoenzymology (5 cases) and electron microscopy (15 cases). The immunohistochemical methods showed in the majority of cells (histiocytes similar to Langerhans' cells), OKT6, HLA-DR ans S-100 protein antigens. Besides, Leu 4 antigen was also present on the surface of some cells. The histoenzymological analysis found acid phosphatase and specific esterases activities with a different repartition in histiocytes compared to macrophages. By electron microscopy, we detected the typical Birbeck granules. The signification of these granules and also the pathogenesis of the disease were discussed.

[Pleomorphic adenoma. Diagnostic difficulties. Value of ultrastructural and immunohistochemical studies. Apropos of 2 cases].

2 cases of pleomorphic adenoma with unusual histological feature are related. In the 1st case, the tumor was mistaken for a schwannoma. The electron microscopic study only permitted the diagnosis; in the 2nd case, the tumor, obviously malignant, was firstly diagnosed as synovial sarcoma; in this case also, ultrastructural study permitted to recognize a malignant mixed tumor with an unusual "sarcomatous" change of its myoepithelial component.

[Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. Anatomico-clinical, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural study. Apropos of a case].

One case of mesenchymal chondrosarcoma of the mandible is reported in a 18 years-old man. The patient noted swelling and pain and roentgenography showed an osteolytic lesion of the right mandible. Histologically, the feature was obvious with chondroid sheets of round ovoid or elongated cells. Immunohistochemically, numerous cells had positive S-100 protein and vimentin. The electron microscopy showed numerous undifferentiated cells and also fibroblastic and cartilaginous cells. The prognosis of this tumor, usually bad, cannot be yet appreciated in this case (follow-up of only 3 months). The histogenesis of this peculiar variety of chondrosarcoma is discussed.
