Clinico-pathological analysis of pilocytic astrocytomas and gangliogliomas.

A pathological analysis of 58 pilocytic astrocytomas (PA) and 11 gangliogliomas (GG) was performed using immunohistochemistry. Antibodies against neuronal and glial markers (GFAP, SYN, NFP) were used. An analysis of survivors using the Kaplan Meier curve was also performed and compared with the literature reports. During the retrospective review of 58 cases recognized primarily as PA, 11 verified neoplasms demonstrated strong, immunopositive reaction for SYN or NFP or both antibodies. These cases were reclassified as gangliogliomas (GG). None of the 11 tumors recognized as GG was reclassified as PA. The overall 5-year survival was 88.89% in the PA and 70% in GG groups.

Clinicopathological analysis of pilocytic astrocytomas and gangliogliomas in children.

We present here a clinico-pathological analysis of 58 pilocytic astrocytomas (PA) and 11 gangliogliomas (GG) based on an analysis of neuronal markers (GFAP, SYN, NFP) in these two groups of neoplasms. During the retrospective review of 58 cases recognized primarily as PA, 11 verified neoplasms demonstrated strong reaction for SYN or NFP or for both antibodies. These cases were reclassified as gangliogliomas. None of 11 tumors recognized as GG were further reclassified as PA. The overall 5-year survival was 88.89% in PA and 70.00% in GG group.

Pleomorphic adenoma (benign "mixed" tumor) of the human female breast. Case report.

A case of solitary pleomorphic adenoma, ("mixed" tumor of salivary gland type) of the left breast associated with the right breast fibroadenoma in 43-year-old woman is reported. The paper describes clinical, cytological, immunohistological and pathological findings in this case and indicates the importance of separating this benign entity from malignances with stromal metaplasia.

[Experimental studies on the effect of tobacco smoke, vitamin C and vitamin E on elastase-induced pulmonary emphysema].

In this study the authors tried to evaluate the effect of tobacco smoke (source of oxidants) vitamin C and E (antioxidants) on elastase induced pulmonary emphysema in hamsters. Using morphometry the internal area of pulmonary alveoli was calculated. The results of this study differ from other similar studies because no effect of tobacco smoke could be demonstrated. The authors discuss this finding.
