[Determination of aluminum in the blood: extra-analytical factors].

Values of Al in serum or plasma of normal subjects reported in the literature vary greatly. The wide range reflects the analytical difficulties and large contamination problems. In order to obtain accurate results we report a direct method for determination of Al-S(P) by using flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometry. (ETA-ASS). Special attention was paid to the precautions to be taken in order to minimize external aluminum contamination. Procedures are described to reduce contamination during sample collection, storage and preparation during sample collection, storage and preparation of sample. Reference values for a healthy population were 7.4 + 2.7 (S.D.) micrograms of Al per liter. (n = 78).

[Infiltrating lobular carcinoma of the breast, alveolar variant, with stromal reactive osteoclast-like giant cells. Description of a case].

Authors report a case of alveolar variant of infiltrating lobular carcinoma of the breast with stromal osteoclast-like giant cells. Immunohistochemically the carcinoma cells were reactive for EMA and Cytokeratins; osteoclast-like giant cells (OCL-GC) were negative. OCL-GC and histiocytoid mononuclear cells with nuclei similar to those within the OCL-GC present in this case, were strongly immunoreactive with KP-1, a recently developed monoclonal antibody directed against cells of mononuclear phagocytic lineage in routinely processed tissue section and showed immunoreactivity to vimentin. These findings of our case provide evidence against a carcinoma cells derivation and support a monocytic/histiocytic origin for the OCL-GC.

[Granular cell tumor of the male breast. Case report and review of the literature].

The authors report a case of granular cell tumor of the breast arising in a 38-year old man. Preoperative diagnosis was of breast carcinoma. However, frozen sections showed the benign nature of the tumour. It is important to identify this lesion as, in spite of a clinical and mammographic similarity with carcinoma, its behaviour is quite benign, and a simple tumour excision is the recommended treatment.
