DNA-ploidy in 143 cases of prostatic carcinoma was assessed by flow cytometric analysis of paraffin-embedded biopsy material. The majority of the tumours (64.3%) were diploid, but in advanced sta es the DNA-aneuploidy rate increased from 15 to over 604. No hypoploid tumour was observed and most of t
The prognostic significance of ploidy level was studied in prostatic carcinoma and compared with the prognostic significance of morphologic grade and clinical stage. A nonselected group of 145 patients was studied in whom prostatic carcinoma was diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy at the Karo
Background. DNA ploidy pattern is sometimes used as a prognostic factor. Heterogeneity of a tumor could, however, give false information when a single analysis is performed. Methods. Twenty-eight patients with adenoid cystic carcinomas were retrospectively studied with regard to clinicohistologic p
