α 1-Antitrypsin and lysozyme in fibrous papules and angiofibromas

The large stellate and polygonal cells observed in eleven fibrous papules and two angiofibromas were examined immunohistochemically for α 1-antitrypsin and lysozyme. The positive findings suggest that these cells are related to histiocytes rather than nevomelanocytes.
