Angiomyolipomas are tumors composed of adipose tissue, blood vessels and smooth muscle. Although renal angiomyolipomas are well known, cutaneous tumors have been described only recently. HMB-45 reactivity, reported for renal angiomyolipomas, has been suggested as a useful tool in differential diagnosis.
Two cases of cutaneous angiomyolipoma are described and investigated for HMB-45 reactivity.
Conventional histochemical and immunohistochemical methods were used.
Immunohistochemical analysis showed no reactivity for HMB-45 antibody.
We conclude that, unlike renal angiomyolipomas, HMB-45 reactivity is not helpful in differentiating cutaneous angiomyolipomas.
血管平滑肌脂肪瘤是由脂肪组织、血管和平滑肌组成的肿瘤。虽然肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤广为人知,但皮肤肿瘤直到最近才被描述。肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤中报道的HMB - 45反应性已被认为是鉴别诊断中的一种有用工具。
描述两例皮肤血管平滑肌脂肪瘤病例,并研究其HMB - 45反应性。
采用传统组织化学和免疫组织化学方法。
免疫组织化学分析显示HMB - 45抗体无反应性。
我们得出结论,与肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤不同,HMB - 45反应性对鉴别皮肤血管平滑肌脂肪瘤并无帮助。
