angiomatosis/ulex

Eight cases of cutaneous bacillary angiomatosis related to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome were studied by light and electron microscopy and by immunohistochemistry with a panel of antibodies specific for endothelial and histiocytic markers. Light microscopy showed an inflammatory reaction with

Thirty cases of cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) were evaluated and compared with eight cases of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related bacillary angiomatosis (BA). The morphologic features of both lesions were studied by light and electron microscopy and by immunohistochemistry with

Cutaneous vascular proliferations that clinically or pathologically resemble Kaposi's sarcoma, pyogenic granuloma, or histiocytoid (epithelioid) hemangioma may occur in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. These lesions, which respond well to antibiotic therapy, harbor bacilli

The staining pattern of monoclonal antibody anti-HPCA-1 (CD-34) was studied in 95 cases of benign and malignant cutaneous vascular proliferations and compared with other vascular endothelium-associated antigenic markers in paraffin-embedded tissues. The proliferating vessels in 22 cutaneous
