Eosinophilic dysplasia of the gallbladder: a hitherto undescribed variant identified in association with a "porcelain" gallbladder

Non-mass forming, neoplastic intraepithelial proliferations (dysplasia) represent the most well-accepted precursor lesions to gallbladder adenocarcinomas. They are typically small, localized, grossly unrecognizable lesions that have been identified in the epithelium adjacent to up to 79% of gallbladder adenocarcinomas. Morphologic variants that have been reported include flat, micropapillary, p...

Congenital Defects following Rubella: Reports of Two Cases, One of which Shows a Hitherto Undescribed Lesion.

The association of maternal rubella in the third month of pregnancy with ocular defects in the infant was first noticed in New South Wales by Gregg (1941). Subsequently (1946) the matter was investigated by Swan and his collaborators in South Australia. Further investigations have been made in the United States and in this country. By now there have also been reports of maternal rubella precedi...

Microcystic adenoma of the pancreas with myoepithelial cells. A hitherto undescribed morphologic feature.

A case of microcystic adenoma (glycogen-rich cystadenoma) of the exocrine pancreas in a 62-year-old white female presenting with adult-onset diabetes mellitus is reported. Clinical, histopathologic, and ultrastructural findings are discussed with particular emphasis on the presence of myoepithelial cells, a morphologic feature not seen in this tumor previously. The controversy over diabetes mel...

A Hitherto Undescribed Plasma Factor Acting at the Contact Phase of Blood Coagulation ( Flaujeac Factor )

This paper reports an asymptomatic coagulation defect responsible for an abnormality at the contact phase of blood coagulation in vitro, distinct from Hageman factor and Fletcher factor deficiencies. Coagulation studies in a 50-yr-old French woman without bleeding tendency revealed the following results: whole-blood clotting time in glass tubes and activated partial thromboplastin time with kao...
