Tumor cells of the congenital granular cell epulis (GCE), unlike those of the granular cell tumor (GCT), did not stain with antiserum to S-100 protein. Based on immunohistochemical findings it is concluded that the GCE and GCT differ in histogenesis; furthermore, ultrastructural studies of the authors are in agreement with others in supporting a mesenchymal origin of the GCE.

The authors review the reasons behind the currently evolving restructuring within the healthcare industry and its implications for hospital laboratories. They predict a continuing decline in the volume of inpatient care with a similar effect on the volume of hospital laboratory testing. They also foresee a shift to independent laboratories in the volume of outpatient testing--currently a key revenue source for many hospital laboratories. For those hospitals that redefine their mission, inpatient testing for higher-acuity patients is one role, as is managing point-of-care testing in nontraditional settings.
