  • Title: Buschke-Ollendorf syndrome. An electron microscopic study.
    Author: Reymond JL, Stoebner P, Beani JC, Amblard P.
    Journal: Dermatologica; 1983; 166(2):64-8. PubMed ID: 6852319.
    Abstract:
    Two identical twins with the Buschke-Ollendorf syndrome (dermatofibrosis lenticularis disseminata with osteopoikilosis) are described. Ultrastructurally elastic fibers show clumps of electron-lucent elastin material coated with fine fibrils. The fibroblasts show enlarged endoplasmic reticulum containing abnormal fibrillar material. Juvenile elastoma seems to be a better term than dermatofibrosis. The pathogenesis of the elastic defect is discussed.
