The development of microsclerotia of Verticillium dahliae from a few swollen hyaline cells on a hypha to a multicellular, pigmented "mature" structure is described and illustrated. A method for quantitatively estimating the amount of pigmented microsclerotial material in pure cultures was developed to study quantitative relations between mycelial growth and production of microsclerotial material in media containing different concentrations of glucose. At low glucose concentrations (0.6 to 10 mg/ml) microsclerotial material continued to increase after total dry weight of the cultures had reached a maximum, suggesting conversion of hyaline to pigmented material. At high glucose concentrations (20 to 60 mg/ml) the patterns of increase in total dry weight, microsclerotial material, and hyaline material were similar over a 4-week incubation period. Maximum production of both pigmented and hyaline materials occurred at a glucose concentration of 30 mg/ml (carbon/nitrogen ratio of 50/1).

Objective: Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis (JHF) is an autosomal recessive condition caused by a mutation in capillary morphogenesis gene 2 (CMG2) on chromosome 4q21. JHF is an extremely rare genetic disorder, and fewer than a hundred cases have been reported worldwide. In this case report, the clinical features, histopathological features and imaging manifestations of a case of JHF are presented. We present imaging manifestations of one case of JHF to deepen the radiologist’s understanding of this condition. The histopathological feature of JHF is hyaline degeneration involving skeletal muscle. Therefore, the lesion has a slightly high density on CT imaging, iso- or hypointense signal on T1WI and hypointense signal on T2WI. The boundary between the lesion and skeletal muscle is unclear. Methods: An 8-year-old male (case 1) was examined in our department with a complaint of multiple masses on the head, neck and back in 2021. The boy was the only child of his parents and was delivered at 40 weeks gestation by caesarean section. His parents were nonconsanguineous. Results : JHF displays multiple slowly or rapidly growing subcutaneous nodules. The imaging manifestations can reflect histopathological components, including nodular connective tissue and amorphous, partially calcified hyaline material.

Lipoid proteinosis is a sporadic congenital metabolic disorder which is characterized by deposition of hyaline material in dermis, submucosal connective tissue, and various internal organs. It has an extremely low prevalence rate with less than 300 cases reported so far. This progressive disease has a vast spectrum of manifestations ranging from asymptomatic lesions to fatal seizures and respiratory obstruction making timely diagnosis of this rare disorder an imperative task for oral health care practitioners. We report a case of characteristic oral manifestations of lipoid proteinosis in a 28-year-old male patient along with a review of relevant prevailing literature.

ABSTRACT Urbach-Wiethe disease is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by infiltration of periodic acid-Schiff positive hyaline material into the skin, oral cavity, larynx and internal organs. The clinical manifestations include hoarseness of voice, beaded papules along the eyelid margins, skin scarring and an inability to protrude the enlarged and thickened tongue. Laryngeal involvement is typical and causes hoarseness of voice. In this paper, we present a case of a middle-aged female with clinical features suggestive of Urbach-Wiethe disease. This entity is of interest to the otolaryngologist as it is a rare cause of hoarseness of voice. How to cite this article Koganti D. Urbach-Wiethe Disease: A Rare Cause of Hoarseness of Voice. Int J Phonosurg Laryngol 2013;3(2):61-64.
