    Notes: Abstract  We report an intimal sarcoma presenting as an aortic aneurysm. A 68-year-old man suffered from chest pain and speech disturbance. Computed tomography showed a sacciform aneurysm of the aorta, which was resected, revealing a polypoid tumour measuring 1.5×2×2.5 cm projecting into the lumen. This proved to be a poorly differentiated high-grade sarcoma having morphological, immunophenotypic and ultrastructural features consistent with rhabdomyosarcomatous differentiation. Primary sarcomas of the aorta are extremely rare. Many cases have been diagnosed as ”intimal” on the basis of their site of origin, and they are not easy to classify from their histological pattern. Electron microscopy and the use of a more comprehensive panel of immunohistochemical markers should be applied in the histological classification of ”intimal” sarcoma.

    Ultrastructural study of pseudo-Kaposi's sarcoma (Bluefarb-Stewart type) (1989)

    Notes: Summary An ultrastructural study of the skin lesion of a young patient affected by pseudo-Kaposi's sarcoma of the Bluefarb-Stewart type (BSS) is reported. The neoplasm consisted of a proliferation of vascular structures mostly consisting of a solid bud of endothelial cells surrounded by a thinned and polystratified basement membrane and several pericytes. Both endothelial cells and pericytes were of normal ultrastructural appearance. Intervascular “stromal” cells were few and morphologically identified as macrophages and/or phagocytic fibroblasts. Masses of hemosiderin were detected outside the cells and in the macrophages, endothelial cells, and pericytes. Intracytoplasmatic crystalloid inclusions similar to those found in fetal endothelium and hemangiomas were observed in a few endothelial cells. These findings are different from those of previously reported cases of pseudo-Kaposi's sarcoma and may be helpful in distinguishing Kaposi's sarcoma from BSS. The role of immunodeficiency in the onset of BSS is discussed.
