The canalicular adenoma: considerations on differential diagnosis and treatment.
The canalicular adenoma is an uncommon, benign salivary gland neoplasm that usually occurs in or near the upper lip of elderly patients. A histologic study of 49 tumors revealed that they are often multifocal, may infiltrate their capsule, and are occasionally unencapsulated. Based on these findings, the method of treatment, as well as a differential diagnosis of minor salivary gland lesions, is discussed.
Microcystic adnexal carcinoma. Immunohistologic observations suggesting dual (pilar and eccrine) differentiation.
Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC) is a locally aggressive neoplasm that has recently been recognized as a clinicopathologic entity. Its histologic appearance includes both pilar and eccrine differentiation. We initially treated two patients with MAC of the cheek and of the nasolabial fold, respectively; by microscopically controlled excision because of the contiguous growth of the tumors. Despite the benign histologic appearance, there was deep and extensive infiltration of the subcutaneous tissue. Both patients responded favorably to initial treatment with microscopically controlled excision. In addition, immunoperoxidase staining for carcinoembryonic antigen supported the dual differentiation of this unusual neoplasm. We speculate that previous radiotherapy may be an important predisposing factor in the pathogenesis of MAC.

Epithelioid hemangiomas of the maxillofacial area. A report of three cases and a review of the literature.
Epithelioid hemangioma, also named angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia, is a very rare tumor that arises from vascular structures. The relative incidence in the skin of the head and neck area is rather high as compared to other parts of the body. Three cases are reported in an atypical location and the differential diagnosis with other similar vascular lesions and their pathologic features is presented.

Xeroderma pigmentosum variant: DNA ploidy analysis of various skin tumors and normal-appearing skin in a patient.
BACKGROUND: The patient with xeroderma pigmentosum provides an appropriate human model for the evaluation of tumor development and progression. METHODS: We describe a patient with variant-type xeroderma pigmentosum who developed actinic keratoses, a squamous cell carcinoma, and its metastasis into a lymph node. DNA ploidy was measured and analyzed in cells of these tumors and the patient's sun-exposed as well as sun-shielded skin. RESULTS: The sun-shielded skin showed a normal diploid DNA distribution pattern, while the sun-exposed skin had an increased number of hyperdiploid cells. The actinic keratosis showed further increased hyperdiploid cells. The squamous cell carcinoma showed a large number of hyperdiploid cells and formed an aneuploid cell fraction. Histographically, the aneuploid cell fraction became more apparent and was revealed to be a major fraction in the metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS: The changes in the DNA ploidy pattern well reflect the clinical and histologic characteristics of the respective skin conditions and likely provide the cellular basis for the sequential or stepwise carcinogenic process in the patient's xeroderma pigmentosum skin. Further studies are necessary to determine whether the present results explain the similar carcinogenic process in sun-damaged skin of the nonpredisposed general population.
Immunohistochemical detection of p53 oncoprotein in human oral squamous cell carcinomas and leukoplakias: comparison with proliferating cell nuclear antigen staining and correlation with clinicopathological findings.
Forty oral squamous cell carcinomas and 20 leukoplakias were examined for expression of p53 oncoprotein using an immunohistochemical technique with BP53-12 monoclonal antibody. Positive staining was found in 21/40 (52%) of the carcinomas and 2/20 (10%) of the leukoplakias. Furthermore, comparison of p53 expression with binding of PC10 monoclonal antibody to proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and degree of histological malignancy in terms of invasion and histological differentiation of carcinomas demonstrated a positive correlation in both cases.
