A case of rhabdomyosarcoma of the embryonal alveolar type arising from the prostate in a 6-year-old boy was reported with a immunohistochemical survey. Tumor cells in the biopsied inguinal lymph node were weakly positive for myoglobin and CPK-mm and showed positive staining for neuron specific enolase (NSE). At autopsy, an immunohistochemical examination demonstrated that the tumor cells, especially differentiated elongated cells, were strongly positive for myoglobin, CPK-mm and NSE. An enzyme immunoassay for three distinct subunits of NSE revealed a 320 fold increase in the beta subunit of enolase which is specific for heart and skeletal muscle. The diagnostic significance of immunohistochemical methods for rhabdomyoblasts was discussed. |
