  Comments: It is apparent that those individuals

regarding histogenesis of the tumor cells from neural

  Dr. Graham's Comments: Pathological Diagnosis:

 Ewing゛sSarcoma, Metastatic

  Comments: The diversityof diagnoses made by

those individuals who reviewed the sectionsare in-

dicative of the difficultyof establishingorigin of the

tumor cells by light microscopy. Five individuals

interpreted the lesion as being of vascular origin and

two of these made the diagnosis of malignant he-

mangioendothelioma which is synonymous with

undifferentiatedangiosarcoma. Two of the review-

ing members feltthat the lesion was of neural origin

and an unusual neuroblastoma of peripheral nerve

origin would have to be considered. The sections

show some suggestion of a rosette pattern but not

CPC                           819

typical as should be seen in neuroblastoma. Electron

microscopic studies fail to support vascular origin of

the tumor cells and tends to rule against the diagnosis

of angiosarcoma. The lytic skull lesion and presence

of considerable glycogen in the tumor cells favor the

final diagnosis of Ewing's sarcoma. E wing's sarcoma

and imdifferentia ted angiosarcoma can show some

similar microscopic features.

  Dr. Graham's Comments: Pathological Diagnosis:

 Fibrous Histiocytoma

  Comments: It is apparent that the Association

 members who reviewed the sections favor the diagnosis

 of some form of sarcoma. Two individuals favored

 the interpretation of hemangiopericytoma. The his-

 togenesis of hemangiopericytoma and fibrous his-

 tiocytoma are close and features of both diagnoses

 can sometimes be seen in the same lesion. I still

 prefer the diagnosis of a fibrohistiocytic lesion and

 feel that it is benign but cannot rule out malignant

 fibrous histiocytoma. The contributors' ultrastruc-

 ture studies showed junction bodies and tonofilaments

 and they favor the diagnosis of hidradenoma. The

 softtissue location of the tumor and my histochemical

 studies on sections which demonstrate reticular fiber

 hyperplasia about many of the tumor cellsrule against

 the diagnosis of any form of sweat gland tumor.

 Fibrohistiocytic cells can show junction bodies and

 perhaps the filamentous structures seen by the con-

 tributors might represent myofibriis which occur in

 pericytes.

 Dr. Graham°s Comments: Patho】ogical Diagnosis:

Apocrine Ductocarcinoma

 Comments: There is general agreement that the

lesion represents an apocrine carcinoma with pro-

minent ductal differentiation of the tumor cells.

The electron microscopic studies done by Dr. Yutaka

λdishima are convincing with regard to ductal origin

of the carcinoma cells. The presence of secretory

granules in the cytoplasm of the ductal carcinoma

cells account for the presence of considerable sial-

omucin demonstrated by histochemical methods.

This observation by Dr. Mishima of secretory granules

in ductal cells of the apocrine acrosyringium re-

presents a significant finding which probably accounts

for the results of my histochemical studies on ex-

tramammary Paget's disease. The presence of tumor

cellsin the patient's axillary lymph nodes support the

high biological potential for metastasis in malignant

 Dr. Graham゛s Conin]ents: Pathological Diagnosis:

Cutaneous Reactive Lymphoid Hyperplasia Com-

patible with Disseminated Lymphocytoma Cuits

 Comments: Classification and etiology of the

patient°sdisease is difficult to determine and this is

apparent from those members of the Japanese Der-

matological Association who reviewed the sections.

CPC

 Six individuals favored a benign reactive lymphoid

 hyperplasia whereas a total of eight called it some

 form of malignant lymphoma. Follow-up of the

 patient is important and this is often required to

 identify the true nature of this type of disease. When

 the clinical and microscopic features are correlated,

 the diagnosis of disseminated lymphocytoma cutis is

 favored.

  Dr. Graham's Comments: Pathological Diagnosis:

 Lymphomatoid Papulosis

  Comments: The true nature of lymphomatoid

 papulosis remains amystery since the cytologic features

 are those of a malignant lymphoreticular process

 whereas the natural history favors a benign disorder.

 The uniform agreement regarding the diagnosis of

 lymphomatoid papulosis indicates support that the

 disease represents a clinicopathologic entity.

 Dr. Graham's Comments: Pathological Diagnosis:

Necrobiosis Lipoidica

  Comments: l have reviewed the sections avail-

able for study on multiple occasions and stilldo not

find any evidence of birefringent particles as should

be seen in Silica granuloma when viewed under

polarized light. I am pleased that two members of

the Japanese Dermatological Association interpreted

the sections as necrobiosis lipoidica. The nesative

studies and absence of a history of diabetes mellitus

favors the diagnosis of necrobiosis lipoidica. For com-

pleteness, the patienむshould be watched for the pro-

bable development of diabetes mellitus.

 Comments: The diversity of pathological diagnoses

supports the problem of classifying the patient's cut-

aneous disease as a specific disorder. Eight members

favored the interpretation of histiocytosis whereas the

majority of my colleagues in the United States who

reviewed the sections were uncertain about the exact

nature of the disease. This is a most unusual case

in my experience. The follow-up information that

the patient has multiple myeloma favors the diagnosis

of secondary cutaneous xanthomatosis.

members of the Association support my difficulty in

arriving at a definite opinion about the patient's

disease. I stillhave doubts about the diagnosis of

any form of lichen planus but feel the features could

fit those of a lichenoid dermatitis such as lupus ery‘

thematosus or lichenoid drug eruption. Pityriasis

lichenoides et varioliformis acuta was the diagnosis

made by 柘urof the reviewers and l should have

included this disease in the microscopic differential

diagnosis. Follow-up of the patient will be important

and continued observation of the natural history may

eventually identify the correct nature of the disease.

 Dr. Graham's Comments: Pathological Diagnosis:

Lupus Erythematosus Profundus

 Comments : Most of the diagnoses reflect the opini-

on of some form of cutaneous mucinosis and this sup-

ports my interpretation of lupus erythematosus pro-

fundus which generally shows an abundance of

hyaluronic acid in the ground substance of the dermis

and affected subcutaneous fat. Dermatomyositis can

show identical ground substance changes but deposi-

tion of immunoglobulins at basement membrane sites

and in the walls of blood vessels 亀vors the diagnosis

of lupus erythematosus profundus. A total of five

members made the diagnosis of lupus erythematosus

and in my experience the profundus type follows the

natural history of the chronic discoid or chronic

disseminate varieties of the disease. Direct im-

munofluorescent studies of a tissue specimen from

CPC                            823

the lesion should be positive for immunoglobulins and

this would definitely support the diagnosis of lupus

erythematosus profundiis.

 General Summarizing Comments: l wish to ex-

press my sincere appreciation to Professor Hitoshi

Hatano and Professor Toshiaki Yasuda for inviting

me to participate in the 76th Annual Meeting of the

Japanese Dermatological Association and for the

opportunity to serve as Guest Moderator n)rthe first

Professor Yoshiharu Miki and Dr. Kinuyo Nakamura

fi]rtheir fine assistance in preparing for the Clinico-

pathologic Conference. I congratulate those members

of the Japanese Dermatological Association who

contributed such an outstanding group of cases which

truly challenged my knowledge of derma topathology.

The kind hospitality of Japanese dermatologists and

the opportunity to visit your beautiful country was

most gratifying to my wife and me。
