(Immuno)histological Analysis of Ewing Sarcoma
2020
The diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma requires the integration of the information generated from numerous techniques, some of them being very sophisticated. However, the first steps of the diagnostic process are crucial to achieve the maximum possible diagnostic performance. In this chapter we will review how to handle the diagnostic specimen from its collection, how to prepare it for diagnosis, how to make a complete pathology report, and provide guidance for the reasonable use of immunohistochemical techniques in this malignancy.
Potential lack of "standardized" processing techniques for production of allogeneic and xenogeneic bone blocks for application in humans.
2013
In the present study, the structure of two allogeneic and three xenogeneic bone blocks, which are used in dental and orthopedic surgery, were histologically analyzed. The ultimate goal was to assess whether the components postulated by the manufacturer can be identified after applying conventional histological and histochemical staining techniques. Three samples of each material, i.e. allogeneic material-1 and -2 as well as xenogeneic material-1, -2 and -3, were obtained commercially. After decalcification and standardized embedding processes, conventional histological staining was performed in order to detect inorganic matrix, cellular or organic matrix components. Allogeneic material-1 sh…
