  • Benign fibrous histiocytoma (FH) is a benign tumor composed of fibroblasts and histiocytes in varying proportions. This tumor is usually found in adult extremities but rarely occurs in deep soft tissues of the oral cavity. As it is difficult to diagnose with physical and radiologic exams, deep benign FH can only be diagnosed by histopathology. We report a case of a 36-year-old female patient who came to our department with painless swelling in the right buccal mucosa. This case report reviews the clinical, radiological, and histological aspects of this tumor.

  • A 10-year-old mixed male dog, weighed 4.2 kg, was referred to an animal hospital in Pusan. Clinical signs were generalized alopecia, cough, cardiac murmur, dehydration, and right side cryptorchidism. Testis was surgically removed, fixed in formalin and submitted to Diagnostic Laboratory, Chonbuk National University. Grossly, right testis was enlarged. A bulging tumor mass of right testis was homogeneous and grayish white in cut surface, but left testis was normal. Microscopically, no border lines of tubules were formed and the cells grew diffusely, forming sheets with scant supporting stroma. Tumor cells were flirty uniform in size and round or polyhedral, and had discrete cellular lines. The nuclei were large and of variable size, and ovoid, round, vesicular but the cell cytoplasm was scanty. Mitotic figures were common. And giant cells and vacuolated histiocytes were scattered, which is called starry sky appearance. This is the case of seminoma with diffuse type in a mixed dog.

  • Actinomycosis involving the female genital tract has increased since the advent of the intra-uterine contraceptive devices (IUD) : the incidence of actinomyces in IUD users with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) was reported to be between 17% and 30%. However a definte relationship between actinomyces and PID has not been demonstrated as yet. We present a case of pelvic actinomycotic infection that was initially diagnosed by means of fine needle aspiration. A 57-year-old female presented with urinary frequency and difficulty for 100 days. Computerized tomographic findings showed a mixed heterogenous soft tissue mass in the left superior aspect of urinary bladder. Fine needle aspiration was done under the impression of urinary bladder cancer. Microscopically, smears disclosed many sulfur granules in necrotic background with many neutrophils, histiocytes, multinucleated giant cells and granulation tissue. These findings were confirmed by surgical removal of the mass.

  • Hitiocytosis X, recently termed Langergans cell histiocytosis, is a rare disease histologically characterized by an abnormal proliferation of histiocytes, and of which the pathophysiology is still ambiguous. The clinical presentation is highly varied. Typically, there is a solitary or multiple bony involvements, and less frequently, lesions are found in other organs such as the lungs, liver, lymph nodes, skin, and mucosae. Interestingly, so far, there has been no report which shows multiple developments in both soft and hard tissues. In this report, we present a case of hitiocytosis X in both mandible and lung. This may provide some information for understanding the pathophysilogy of the histiocytosis X.

  • 아니사키스중에서 조직병리학적 병변과 혈청학적 반응의 시간 경과에 따른 변동 양상을 관찰하고자 이 실험을 실시하였다. 조기 와 아나고 내 잔에서 구한 멸룬연상 type I 유충을 체중 3kg 내외의 집토끼에 30마리씩 경구 투여하고, 감염 전과 감염 후 3, 13, 20, 30, 60, 90, 150일에 채 늴하여 혈청을 냉동 보관 하였다. 동시에 13, 20, 30, 60, 90, 150일에 1~3마리 씩 도살하여 위부터 하행결장까지 육안으로 검사하여 아니사키스 충체의 유무를 조사하고, 충체가 감염된 부위를 선택하여 조직학적으로 관찰하였다. 또한 냉동 보관한 혈청을 이용한 micro-ELISA를 시행하여 항체가의 변동을 관찰하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 육안 검사에서 아니사키스 유충은 위에서 57.7%가 검출되고, 그 이외에 대망(mentum), 잗, 장간막, 복막등에서도 검출되 었다. 감염기 간에 따른 충체의 검출율이나 검출부위의 차이는 인정 할 수 없었다. 전체 충체검출율은 18.6%이고 살아서 움직이는 충체는 하나도 없었다. 2. 조직병리학적으로 관찰한 바, 감염 후 13일에는 대부분의 충체가 내부구조를 온전하게 유지하고 있으면서, 충체 주위에는 농양이 형성되어 있어 감염된 위장관벽이 2~3배 두꺼워져 있었다. 충체 주변에 섬유성 삼출액이 염증세포와 혼합되어 있고 그 주위를 조직세포(histiocytes)가 층을 이루며 둘러싸고 다시 주위의 병소 대부분을 수많은 염증세포(중성구, 호산구, 림프구등)와 섬유아세포가 차지하고 있었다. 감염 후 20일과 30일에는 삼출액이 차츰 줄고, 섬유소가 증식하는 육아조직으로 전환되었다. 충체는 20일 관찰된 것부터 괴사에 빠지고, 30일에는 조직구가 직접 충체를 둘러싸며 숙주세포가 충체를 침윤하는 것이 뚜렷이 관찰되었다. 또 30일부터 칼슘이 침착된 충체가 관찰되었다. 감염 후 90일과 150일에는 칼슘화된 충체만이 관찰되며 충체주위는 섬유조직으로 대체되고 소수의 염증세포 만이 모여 있었다. 3. ELISA를 이용하여 혈청내 Is G항체가의 측정결과 감염 후 기간에 따른 카 군별 흡광도(O.D.)의 평균(${\pm}표준편차$)치가 대조군 0.165(${\pm}0.144$), 3일 0.257(${\pm}0.194$), 13일 0.448(${\pm}0.257$), 20일 0.662(${\pm}0.311$), 30일 1.113(${\pm}0.336$), 60일 0.993(${\pm}0.331$), 90일 0.740(${\pm}0.185$), 150일에 0.376이 었다. 이상의 결과로 미루어 토끼에 감염된 아니사키스는 감염 1주 경에 죽고, 2주 정도 까지는 형태학적 구조를 유지하지만, 20일 이후에는 괴사되며, 30일 이후에는 숙주 세포에 의하여 파괴 흡수되거나 석회화되는 과정을 겪고, 90일 이후에는 석회화된 것 이외에는 거의 흡수되어 관찰되지 않는다고 할 수 있겠다. 충체가 감염된 후 죽어서 흡수되기 시작하는 30일 정도의 기간동안 집중적으로 충체의 항원이 방출되어 항체가가 위와 같은 변화양상을 보인다고 판단된다. 감염 150일에는 항체가가 뚜렷하게 감소한 상태이므로 감염 후 20~90일에는 ELISA가 유용한 혈청학적 진단법이 될 수 있을 것으로 보인다. 실제로 진단에 적용하기 위해서는 교차 반응등에 관하여 더 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

  • A total of 48 cases of tuberculous lesion in the lymph nodes (43 cases), lung (3 cases) and soft tissue (2 cases), was subjected to fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). The age of the patients ranged from 19 to 77 year-old (average 33.6 years in age) and the male to female ratio was 1 : 4. Thirty-four cases (70.8%) demonstrated distinct granulomatous reaction with or without caseation necrosis, nine cases (18.8%) showed no granulomas, but large amount of necrotic debris with numerous polymorphonuclear cells and histiocytes, and five cases (10.4%) revealed acellular material only. The overall AFB positivity in smears was 62.5%. In areas associated with granulomatous reaction and necrosis, AFB positivity was 55.8%, while it was 80.0% in cases with acellular necrotic material. There were 2 cases of parasitic infestation which could not be easily differentiated from tuberculosis based on aspiration smears only.

  • Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), previously known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, occurs commonly in the soft tissues in adult, but is rare in the maxillofacial region. It consists of undifferentiated mesenchymal tumor cells resembling histiocytes and fibroblasts. The purpose of this article is to report a case of UPS in the mandible. A 44-year-old patient presented with a painful growing mass in the mandible of two months' duration. Computed tomography and positron emission tomography-computed tomography revealed an ill-defined heterogenous, hypermetabolic mass about 4 cm in size in the left mandible invading adjacent soft tissues. A left mandiblulectomy and reconstruction with a fibular free flap were performed. Immunohistochemical study gave a diagnosis of UPS. The patient was referred for adjuvant chemotherapy after surgical removal of the tumor.

  • Development of an invasive squamous cell carcinoma within a branchial cleft cyst (branchiogenic carcinoma) is very rare and this case is the first description of cytologic findings in Korea. A 62-year-old man presented with a 5-month history of an enlarged right neck mass. Fine needle aspiration cytology of the mass showed low cellularity and the background containing proteinaceous debris, inflammatory cells, and histiocytes suggested a cystic nature. Abundant lymphocytes, a few anucleated squames, and rare atypical squamous cells with pyknotic nuclei and abnormal keratinization were also noted. After excision of the mass, histologic findings were consistent with a branchiogenic carcinoma. We recommend to raise the possibility of carcinoma (primary or metastatic) when we observe a few dyskeratotic cells in a cystic mass within the neck area, especially in an old male.

  • Granulomatous meningoencephalomyelitis (GME) is a sporadic, idiopathic, non suppurative inflammatory disease of the canine central nervous system. GME appears to have a worldwide distribution and to occur mostly in young to middle-age dogs of small breeds. A 6-year-old female mixed dog with wry neck, ataxia and rolling was submitted to the Cheju National University for diagnosis. Grossly, in the brain, cerebrospinal fluid was mildly increased and dilatation of the subarachnoid blood vessels was observed. Histopathologically, the lesions were characterized by perivascular cuffs of lymphocytes, various numbers of macrophages and plasma cells in the brainstem and cerebral white matter. Numerous granuloma composed of lymphocytes and histiocytes were scattered throughout the brainstem. Two malacic foci characterized by axonal swelling and gitter cell infiltration with hemorrhage were noted in the medulla oblongata and cerebellum. Special stains failed to demonstrate any infectious agents. Immunohistochemically, the infiltrated cells demonstrated strong positive reactions for CD3, a marker for T lymphocytes origin. Based on the clinical signs, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry, this case was diagnosed as GME in a mixed dog.
