Nodular fasciitis and proliferative myositis as variants of one disease entity.

The concept of nodular fasciitis and proliferative myositis as variants of the same fibroblastic disorder is supported by intermediary cases, showing simultaneous features thought to be typical of either nodular fasciitis or proliferative myositis. Various other anatomical, pathological and clinical similarities found in this study of 100 cases support such conclusions. 'Ganglion-like' cells were a distinct, but not exclusive, feature of all cases with sole, or only partial, muscle involvement.

Immunohistochemical characterization of histiocytic tumours.

Immunohistochemical labelling of histiocytic tumour cells in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded material was usefully applied to malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) and to malignant histiocytosis (MH). Not all cases of MFH showed a positive reaction, in contrast with the obligatory positive staining in MH. In general, histiocytic tumour cells stained more intensively with alpha 1-antichymotrypsin than with lysozyme. False positive results can be due to intermingled non-neoplastic histiocytes or degenerating neoplastic cells in any mesenchymal tumour.
