## Abstract Our study evaluates the prognostic significance of the cytokeratinβpositive mononuclear cells (CK+ cells) in the bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) as detected by immunocytochemistry in patients with locoregionally confined prostate cancer. BM and PB samples were obtained from 6
