    Notes: Summary This report presents a fatal case of ameloblastic fibrosarcoma arising from an ameloblastic fibroma, originating in the maxilla of 19-year-old Japanese male. An analysis of previously reported fatal cases of ameloblastic fibrosarcoma is included. In the course of the disease, the mesenchymal component of ameloblastic fibroma showed a dramatic histopathological transformation into sarcoma following multiple recurrence and the patient died of uncontrollable local infiltration of the cranial base. Although many cases have seemed to show disappearance of the epithelial component as malignant transformation progressed, many benign appearing ameloblastoid epithelial masses were scattered throughout the sarcomatous area even in the fatal stage in the present case. No distant metastases were found at autopsy. During multiple recurrences of the lesion, a little dysplastic dentin which was closely associated with both epithelial and mesenchymal components was found, though it could not be observed in autopsy material. Ultrastructural findings in autopsy material showed that the mesenchymal component consisted of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells, fibroblastic and fibrocytic cells with marked cellular and nuclear pleomorphism and that the epithelial component closely resembled the enamel organ.

    Notes: Summary Experimental autoallergic sialadenitis was induced in SL/Ni mice by one or two injections of syngeneic submandibular gland homogenate emulsified with adjuvant. Light microscopically, there were marked lymphoid cell infiltration in the submandibular glands with high incidence and proliferation of duct epithelia. Furthermore complete alteration of whole glandular lobules in some cases was observed. Ultrastructurally, small and medium sized lymphocytes and plasma cells constituted a major portion of the infiltrating cells, and lymphocytes were frequently observed inside the basal lamina of ductal and acinar regions, especially observed in the small ductal region. In the aggregates of infiltrating cells, the cell remnants of salivary gland epithelia were scattered. Furthermore some of the epithelial cell remnants in aggregates of infiltrating cells could be recognized as epithelial masses which were composed of proliferated duct epithelial cells, though no typical structure of epimyoepithelial islands seen in Sjögren's syndrome was found. Anti-salivary duct antibody was detected in only one case.
