  • Title: Immunohistological study in chordomas.
    Author: Coindre JM, Rivel J, Trojani M, De Mascarel I, De Mascarel A.
    Journal: J Pathol; 1986 Sep; 150(1):61-3. PubMed ID: 2431128.
    Abstract:
    An immunohistological study of 15 chordomas, six chondrosarcomas, four liposarcomas and seven carcinomas on paraffin embedded samples using anti-cytokeratin, anti-epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), anti-S100 protein, anti-vimentin and anti-neurofilaments showed that chordomas has a characteristic immuno-staining, i.e. positive for cytokeratin, EMA, S100 protein and vimentin; and negative for neurofilaments. This immuno-staining allows a clear distinction of chordomas from other tumours.
