  • Title: [The relationship between DNA content in cervical carcinoma cell and the clinicopathological features].
    Author: Zhang H.
    Journal: Zhonghua Bing Li Xue Za Zhi; 1989 Jun; 18(2):137-9. PubMed ID: 2582553.
    Abstract:
    Nuclear DNA content was determined by flow cytometry in biopsy samples taken from cervical carcinomas of 33 patients. Aneuploid DNA content was found in 24 cases (72.7%). The relationship between DNA content of carcinoma cells and the clinicopathological features was investigated. Carcinomas with aneuploid DNA content were clinically more advanced and histologically poorly differentiated as compared with those with diploid DNA content. DNA content was found neither correlated with the patient's age nor with the growing type of the tumor; and analysis of DNA content by flow cytometry was considered helpful in evaluating tumor malignancy, efficacy of treatment and prognosis.
