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 کاملTransformation of Monocytes in Tissue Culture into Macrophages, Epithelioid Cells, and Multinucleated Giant Cells
The sequential transformation of chicken monocytes into macrophages, epithelioid cells, and multinucleated giant cells in vitro was studied by electron microscopy after fixation and embedment in situ. The following changes occur. In the nucleus, margination of chromatin, evident in monocytes, decreases in later forms. Nucleoli become more complex and nuclear pores increase in number. In cytopla...
متن کاملOrigin of histiocyte-like cells and multinucleated giant cells in malignant fibrous histiocytoma: neoplastic or reactive?
The origin of histiocyte-like cells in malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) remains controversial. To determine whether histiocyte-like cells and multinucleated giant cells show reactive or neoplastic proliferation, we transplanted human storiform-pleomorphic MFH to nude mice and investigated the origin of histiocyte-like cells using the DNA in situ hybridization (ISH) system. In addition, we a...
