Abstract:
A quantitative analysis of nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) in renal adenocarcinoma is proposed. The NORs have been evaluated on paraffin sections by a silver staining methods. A series of 19 renal adenocarcinoma is tested. A significant statistical difference (P less than 0.001) is found between normal and neoplastic tubules and between different stages of neoplasia. The authors suggest that this method if supported by authors date, may be a new prognostic index.
