The histopathology of 43 cases of carcinoma in the extrahepatic bile ducts was reported. All four cases of noninfiltrating carcinoma were papillary or polypoid in gross shape. Only one of the eight cases of papillary or polypoid cancers penetrated beyond the fibromuscular layer of the bile ducts, wh

## BACKGROUND. Cell proliferative activity is an important indicator of growth and behavior of various human tumors. Immunostaining of tissue sections with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and Ki-67 antibodies appears to be reliable in the assessment of tumor cell proliferation. This study
Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction can be used to study the structural relationships between various tissue components and can help in the understanding of disease processes. Examples of perineural invasion have been reconstructed in two cases of adenocarcinoma of the extrahepatic bile duct. Nine
