Tumoren der Ceruminaldrüsen

Tumours originating from the ceruminous glands can be classified into five types: adenomas, adenocarcinomas, adenoid-cystic carcinomas, pleomorphic adenomas and mucoepidermoid carcinomas. The diagnosis is based on histological findings and can be quite difficult if the tumour status has to be determined. Classification into one of the five types of tumours may be facilitated at times by studying the clinical pattern. Three case reports are quoted as examples to illustrate that neoplasias originating from the ceruminous glands can assume considerable proportions and must be considered in differential diagnosis when assessing space-occupying growths in the soft tissue of the neck. Whereas pro…

Immunohistological differential diagnosis of inflammatory colonic diseases.

Immunohistological investigations were carried out on human colonic tissue from, I healthy mucosa, 2 slightly inflamed mucosa, 3 mucosa with ulcerative colitis, 4 mucosa with Crohn's colitis, using antibodies against immunoglobulins and complement components. All our antibodies, including F(ab')2 fragments, demonstrated a progressive increase of labelled cells from healthy mucosa through slightly inflamed mucosa to mucosa with ulcerative colitis, in contrast to a complete absence of labelled cells in cases of Crohn's disease. The results are discussed with regard to their pathogenesis and their clinical significance for the differentiation of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's colitis.
