[Fluorocytophotometic DNA studies in kidney carcinoma]
Abstract:
DNA measurements in renal cell carcinoma are demonstrating a considerable tumor heterogeneity. Tumor DNA content is one of important prognostic factors. Renal cell carcinomas can be divided into two main groups by single-cell cytophotometry: diploid/near diploid in grade 1 and 2 and mainly aneuploid in grade 3 with variable blocks and peaks. In different tissue samples from the same carcinoma we can found different polymorphism and DNA content.
