Lymphomatoid granulomatosis of the skin. A new clinocopathologic entity.

Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is a necrotizing arteritis primarily affecting the lungs but also found in the skin, kidneys, central nervous system, and other extra-pulmonary sites. Cutaneous involvement occurred in 45% of the cases described by Liebow in his original series. Light microscopy studies were performed. The IgA and IgG levels were slightly decreased and the IgE level was elevated. Cell-mediated immunity was impaired. No viruses were isolated or identified by immunofluorescence. A man had cutaneous lesions as the first sign of lymphomatoid granulomatosis.

Unusual ultrastructural features of a leiomyosarcoma of the lung;.

The electron microscopic features of a leiomyosarcoma occurring in the lung, a rare site, were studied; Unusual was the fwnding of extremely electron-dense bands that interrupted the longitudinally-arranged microfilaments and dense bodies of many of the tumor cells. These bands superficially resembled anomalous Z-bands seen in nemalin myopathy and aging rat cardiac muscle, but have not been described to occur in smooth muscle tumors. They are thought to represent condensations of dense bodies in degenerating tumor cells.
