Eight cases of cutaneous bacillary angiomatosis related to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome were studied by light and electron microscopy and by immunohistochemistry with a panel of antibodies specific for endothelial and histiocytic markers. Light microscopy showed an inflammatory reaction with
Thirty cases of cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) were evaluated and compared with eight cases of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related bacillary angiomatosis (BA). The morphologic features of both lesions were studied by light and electron microscopy and by immunohistochemistry with
Cutaneous vascular proliferations that clinically or pathologically resemble Kaposi's sarcoma, pyogenic granuloma, or histiocytoid (epithelioid) hemangioma may occur in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. These lesions, which respond well to antibiotic therapy, harbor bacilli
Verruga peruana and bacillary angiomatosis are two cutaneous diseases characterized by angiomatous growths linked to the presence of rickettsia-like organisms. These lesions are currently considered to be endothelial hyperplasias and to share many features. By immunohistochemistry and computerized
Vascular malformations usually develop as a result of influence of teratogenic factor(s) acting in the defined embryonic/fetal period. However, in the case examined by us, various types of vascular malformations formed in different periods of the ontogenic development were found. They were seen in
The staining pattern of monoclonal antibody anti-HPCA-1 (CD-34) was studied in 95 cases of benign and malignant cutaneous vascular proliferations and compared with other vascular endothelium-associated antigenic markers in paraffin-embedded tissues. The proliferating vessels in 22 cutaneous
