Purpose: To describe the clinical and microscopic features of pigmented basal cell carcinomas (pBCC) of the eyelid.
Design: Retrospective observational case series collected at one institution.
Methods: An analysis of clinical records, photographs, and histopathologic characteristics of 257 BCCs with a review of the literature.

Detection of multiple antigens in the same tissue section can be done by combining a range of immunohisto/cytochemical techniques based either on light microscopic chromogenic precipitates or fluorochrome labeling. Light microscopic techniques preferred for this purpose use combinations of immunogold silver staining (black precipitate), immunoperoxidase, immunoalkaline phosphatase and immunogalactosidase methods using chromogens of different colors. Fluorochrome labels favored for these combinations include AMCA (blue), FITC (green), rhodamine (orange-red) and Cy5 (far red), their matching synthetic members from the Alexa series, or quantum dots.

Morphological, cytochemical and ultrastructural studies are important to demonstrate the function of the blood cells, which is very little understood in teleosts. In peripheral blood of 'piracanjuba' Brycon orbignyanus, thrombocytes, lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils and heterophils were studied and characterized. Thrombocytes had a fusiform or oval shape with PAS-positive granules.

Introduction: Induced dental root resorption is a common side effect of orthodontic treatment. It is an unpredictable phenomenon, and its etiology is unknown. Odontoclasts responsible for the resorption of the dental tissues--ie, cementum and dentin--share many cytochemical and morphological characteristics with osteoclasts, which are responsible for bone resorption.

In the present study we investigated tissue changes in palatine (PG) and labial (LG) minor salivary glands from individuals who had died of alcoholic hepatic cirrhosis, to characterize histopathological parameters of alcoholic sialosis, that may be used for differential diagnosis. Samples obtained from autopsies were processed using cytochemical techniques for mucosubstances and immunocytochemical labelling for cytokeratines, PS 100 and T-cells. Both PG and LG showed dilated excretory ducts with atrophic epithelium, which contained PAS+ metachromatic material and detached cells.
