✦ Synopsis


Resection of Hepatic and Pulmonary Metastases in Patients with Colorectal Carcinoma

W e read with interest the article by Ambiru et al. 1 concerning the resection of colorectal hepatic and pulmonary metastases. In a population of 156 patients with resected hepatic metastases from colorectal carcinoma, they identified 6 in whom pulmonary metastasectomy was performed. They concluded that hepatic and pulmonary metastasectomy can result in long term survival for selected patients.

Recently, we analyzed data on 239 patients who underwent colorectal pulmonary metastasectomy at the thoracic surgery departments of two French institutions during the period 1970 -1995. Among these patients, 43 (18%) underwent hepatic resection for

## BACKGROUND. Cytokeratins are constituents of the intermediate filaments of epithelial cells that are expressed in various combinations depending on the epithelial type and the degree of differentiation. The recently identified cytokeratin 20 (CK-20) was found to be expressed in colonic, gastric,

A series of 33 tumor cases (13 fine-needle aspirates and 20 effusion specimens) were evaluated for the expression of two cytokeratin (CK) subtypes; CK 20, expressed primarily in tumors of the GI tract, mucinous ovarian tumors and transitional cell carcinomas, and CK 7, found chiefly in non-GI tract
