To clarify the role of immunohistochemistry in the diagnosis of psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (PSOF), conventional cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF), and psammomatous meningioma (PM) of the craniofacial skeleton.
The histology and immunohistochemistry of 4 PSOFs, 6 COFs, and 7 PMs was studied. Antibodies included EMA, cytokeratins, smooth muscle actin (SMA), desmin, vimentin, CD34, CD10, S-100 protein, and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP).
All PSOFs showed multiple round ossicles homogeneously distributed within a fibroblastic stroma. Psammomatous meningiomas had meningothelial features. All tumors, except 1 COF, were positive for EMA. All of them expressed vimentin, and none showed cytokeratins. Staining for SMA and S-100 protein was variable. CD10 was positive in all cases except 2 meningiomas. CD34 and GFAP stained only 1 case of meningioma each.
The diagnosis of PSOF should rest on histologic features. An incorrect diagnosis of meningioma based on the expression of EMA should be avoided.
阐明免疫组织化学在颅面骨沙瘤样骨化性纤维瘤(PSOF)、传统骨化性纤维瘤(COF)和沙瘤性脑膜瘤(PM)诊断中的作用。
对4例PSOF、6例COF和7例PM进行组织学和免疫组织化学研究。抗体包括上皮膜抗原(EMA)、细胞角蛋白、平滑肌肌动蛋白(SMA)、结蛋白、波形蛋白、CD34、CD10、S-100蛋白和胶质纤维酸性蛋白(GFAP)。
所有PSOF均显示多个圆形小骨,均匀分布于成纤维细胞基质内。沙瘤性脑膜瘤具有脑膜内皮特征。除1例COF外,所有肿瘤EMA均呈阳性。所有肿瘤均表达波形蛋白,无一例显示细胞角蛋白。SMA和S-100蛋白染色结果不一。除2例脑膜瘤外,CD10在所有病例中均呈阳性。CD34和GFAP仅各有1例脑膜瘤染色阳性。
PSOF的诊断应基于组织学特征。应避免基于EMA表达错误诊断为脑膜瘤。
