Abstract
Ten cases of renal angiomyolipomas were immunohistochemically analyzed
for the presence of S-100 protein, neuron specific enolase (NSE) and desmin using the
avidin-biotin complex method. The composition of histologic constituents differed in each
case. The cases with predominantly smooth muscle-like solid spindle cell proliferation
showed unexpected positive reaction to S-100 protein and NSE. Among 10 cases, five were
both S-100 protein positive and NSE positive. The reaction pattern of S-100 protein and
NSE was similar. Relatively weak or minimal positive reactions to desmin were observed in
the cases and the distribution of positive reaction was different from those of S-100 protein
and NSE. The result demonstrated immunohistochemical evidence of neural or Schwarm cell
differentiation in a significant proportion of renal angiomyolipomas, and its histogenesis was
speculated.
