Multinucleated giant cells in factitial dermatitis.
Factitial dermatitis, also known as dermatitis artefacta, consists of self-inflicted cutaneous lesions. It was first described in 1951 by Asher.1 Factitial dermatitis may be associated with borderline personality disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and eating disorders. It is more common in women. The reported clinical morphology is diverse and includes erosions, blisters, ulcers, erythem...
متن کاملFloret-like multinucleated giant cells in neurofibroma
This short report discusses a case of neurofibroma containing floret-like multinucleated giant cells. This being the second such case in the literature. Floret-like multinucleated giant cells have been reported in gynaecomastia and neurofibroma in neurofibromatosis type 1. These cells have been reported in uncommon soft tissue tumours including pleomorphic lipoma, giant cell collagenoma, giant ...
متن کاملMultinucleated stromal giant cells in adolescent gynaecomastia.
Bizzare multinucleated stromal giant cells were observed in a case of adolescent gynaecomastia. Similar cells have been described in the female breast in both benign and malignant conditions where they are thought to originate either from reactive stromal cells or from the mononuclear phagocyte system, respectively. Immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy in this case support the idea that...
متن کاملPresence of osteoclast-like multinucleated giant cells in the bone and nonostotic lesions of Langerhans cell histiocytosis
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a disease that can involve one or multiple organ systems characterized by an accumulation of CD1a(+) Langerhans-like cells as well as several other myeloid cell types. The precise origin and role of one of these populations, the multinucleated giant cell (MGC), in this disease remains unknown. This work shows that in three different lesional tissues, bone,...
متن کاملMultinucleated Giant Hemocytes Are Effector Cells in Cell-Mediated Immune Responses of Drosophila.
We identified and characterized a so far unrecognized cell type, dubbed the multinucleated giant hemocyte (MGH), in the ananassae subgroup of Drosophilidae. Here, we describe the functional and ultrastructural characteristics of this novel blood cell type as well as its characterization with a set of discriminative immunological markers. MGHs are encapsulating cells that isolate and kill the pa...
