    Notes: Abstract. The accurate pre-operative evaluation of the intramedullary extent of osteosarcoma is essential, as it determines the level of bone resection. Radiographs, isotope bone and MR imaging scans have been considered as reliable in detecting skeletal metastasis and skip lesions. We report a case of osteosarcoma of the distal femur with a large skip lesion proximally which was not visualized by either routine radiography or bone scintigraphy, and was not included within the scan field on the initial MR imaging scan. The implications on patient management and possible reasons for failure of imaging to reveal the skip metastasis are discussed.

    Notes: The histological features that characterize alkaline reflux gastritis are typical of the histamine-mediated response to tissue injury. We have investigated this in nine patients with symptomatic reflux gastritis following partial gastrectomy for duodenal ulcer by determining the gastric mucosal mast cell count before and after Roux-en-Y biliary diversion. Following diversion, the histological picture changed from that of reflux gastritis to type B chronic gastritis in all cases. The mean mucosal mast cell count in all patients was 47.57/mm2 before diversion and 123.33/mm2 after diversion (P 〉 0.05). Analysis of the paired data, in which eight out of nine patients showed a rise in mucosal mast cell numbers following bile diversion, also showed a significant difference before and after surgery (P 〈 0.01).The gastric mucosal mast cell count is significantly less in reflux gastritis than in type B chronic gastritis. This is most likely to be due to increased degranulation, which would explain why striking vascular changes occur in the absence of inflammatory cell infiltration in reflux gastritis.

    Notes: To describe and illustrate a novel and highly sensitive peroxidase-based immunohistochemical detection system which employs mutually attractive, mirror image complementary antibodies (MICA).〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉Methods and resultsTo demonstrate the sensitivity of the MICA system alongside the avidin–biotin complex (ABC) method, we selected a range of mouse monoclonal and rabbit polyclonal primary antibodies against antigens that are generally regarded as relatively difficult or impossible to detect on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded lymphoid tissue. Compared with the ABC method, the MICA immunodetection method enabled us to dilute primary antibodies up to 200-fold with equivalent or superior immunostaining results and, usually, considerably shortened primary antibody incubation times.〈section xml:id="abs1-3"〉〈title type="main"〉ConclusionsWe have described and illustrated a novel immunohistochemical detection system and demonstrated greatly increased sensitivity over the commonly used ABC system. An additional advantage of the MICA system is that it is avidin-free and so avoids non-specific staining due to endogenous tissue biotin.

    Notes: Aims: We immunohistochemically determined the expression of CD44 standard and splice variant isoforms in a series of synovial sarcomas and sought correlations with histological subtype and clinical parameters including outcome. Methods  and results: From 39 patients, a total of 56 formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tumour samples (including initial, recurrent and metastatic tumours) were used to immunohistochemically evaluate the expression of epitopes encoded by CD44s and the CD44 splice variants CD44v3–v10. Significance of proposed prognostic indicators was evaluated in relation to the survival, time to local recurrence and time to metastases using log-rank analysis. Sixty-four percent of synovial sarcomas expressed CD44s and 46% expressed CD44v3–v10 (var). Synovial sarcomas with epithelial or epithelioid areas preferentially expressed CD44s in these areas when compared with the spindle cell element. There were no correlations with clinical parameters or outcome. Conclusions: The expression of CD44 was not found to correlate with survival, local recurrence or metastatic ability. In synovial sarcoma, CD44 and variant isoform expression appears to be associated with the degree of epithelial differentiation. CD44 expression in synovial sarcoma shows interesting similarities to CD44 expression in embryological epitheliogenesis.

    Notes: Abstract  A 70-year-old man presented with increasing swelling of 2 years’ duration, on the dorsal aspect of the forefoot. Imaging studies revealed a heavily calcified surface lesion of bone with early invasion of the underlying second metatarsal. Both imaging findings and the subsequent resection histology were consistent with a parosteal osteosarcoma, which is particularly rare at this site and at this age. The differential diagnosis of a mineralizing surface lesion of bone arising in the foot is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract  Considerable attention has been paid in the past 10 years to the radiological spectrum of disease entities belonging to the SAPHO syndrome. We report an unusual case presenting with an extra-axial (femoral) lesion, prior to description of this syndrome, which was radiologically and histologically mistaken for a parosteal osteosarcoma. Nineteen years later, a further lesion developed in the scapula together with the typical sternoclavicular manifestations, at which stage the correct diagnosis of SAPHO syndrome was established.
