Ultrastructural morphology of folliculo-stellate cells in human pituitary adenomas.
Fifty-six pituitary adenomas were studied by electron microscopy in a search for the presence of folliculo-stellate cells (FSCs) with the aim of evaluating their prevalence and ultrastructural morphology. FSCs were scattered in two adenomas (one oncocytoma and one densely granulated GH cell adenoma) and were numerous in a sparsely granulated GH cell adenoma; their overall prevalence was 5.4%. Ultrastructural examination of the three neoplasms revealed that FSCs were hypertrophic element with abundant cytoplasm and organelles (in contrast to FSCs of the normal pituitary) and no obvious signs of neoplastic transformation. Junctional complexes between FSCs were similar to those described in the normal gland. Numerous follicular structures were lined by FSCs. FSCs in pituitary adenomas are probably nonneoplastic, reactive cells showing signs of hyperactivity, similar to FSCs found during pituitary hypersecretion and in estrogen-induced tumor.

Interstitial lung granulomas as a possible consequence of exposure to zirconium dust.
A case of interstitial lung granulomas is described in a worker exposed to zirconium compounds. Chest X-rays revealed diffuse slight reticular interstitial radio-opacities (ILO classification, 1/0 s/t). Histological examination of transbronchial biopsy tissue revealed small interstitial nonconfluent granulomas with epithelioid and giant cells showing no central necrosis, with PAS-positive diastase-resistant small weakly birefringent particles in interstitial histiocytes. These histological and stain findings, which are characteristic of zirconium skin lesions and granulomas, suggest zirconium interstitial lung disease.
