General description

Immunostaining with anti-myoglobin provides a specific, sensitive, and practical procedure for the identification of tumors of muscle origin. Since myoglobin is found exclusively in skeletal and cardiac muscle and is not present in any other cells of the human body, it may be used to distinguish rhabdomyosarcoma from other soft tissue tumors. Anti-myoglobin staining is also useful when demonstrating rhabdomyoblastic differentiation in other tumors, e.g. neurogenic sarcomas and malignant mixed mesodermal tumors of the uterus and ovary.

Myoglobin, found exclusively in striated muscle, can be considered a fetal antigen. This study investigated its usefulness as a tumor marker for rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) using an immunoperoxidase technique. Eight-nine percent (89%) or 27 rhabdomyosarcomas contained immunoreactive myoglobin. In contrast, all

An immuno-histochemical investigation of the presence and localization of myoglobin was performed on cardiac and skeletal muscle tissue and on 9 embryonal and 9 alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas, utilizing an immunoperoxidase technique. Cardiac muscle fibres were evenly stained whereas staining of skeletal

Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma is considered rare and controversial, especially in children. Although pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma has been observed in children, its sparcity has taken it out of current childhood rhabdomyosarcoma classifications. We report four pediatric cases of pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma, review morphologic, immunohistochemical

Using an immunoperoxidase method, myoglobin is localized in the cytoplasm of normal and neoplastic human skeletal muscle. The staining intensity is variable in individual cells. This can be explained by the variable concentration of myoglobin in the different fiber types

Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma (PRMS) is a rare and controversial tumor of skeletal muscle phenotype. Diagnostic criteria for PRMS by combined histology and currently available immunohistochemistry have not been clearly defined. We report 38 pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcomas in adults, explore morphologic variants, and
