Falsely elevated urinary level of vanillylmandelic acid induced by griseofulvin.

A 6-year-old girl with mild hepatitis was found to have an elevated urinary level of vanillylmandelic acid (VMA), but no cause for the elevation was found. The patient was receiving griseofulvin for treatment of tinea capitis, and this drug was suspected of causing a falsely elevated urinary VMA level. Four other patients receiving griseofulvin were also found to have elevated urinary VMA levels. In one patient, urinary VMA level determined by an alternate method was normal.

Recurrent digital fibromatosis of childhood. An ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study of two cases.

Two cases of recurrent digital fibromatosis of childhood were studied by electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry, using rabbit anti-actin antisera. The tumor cells were typical myofibroblasts, containing inclusion bodies and bundles of microfilaments. Immunohistochemistry showed the presence of actin in these cells, thus proving the myofibroblastic nature of the tumors. Inclusions were negative or showed a weak annular positivity. A possible explanation of these findings is discussed.
