Abstract
DNA nuclear ploidy determined by flow cytometry was evaluated from prostate tissue in 51 patients with prostatic cancer who had undergone radical prostatectomy. DNA ploidy pattern was diploid in 46% and aneuploid in 54% of tumors. DNA ploidy was compared to histological tumor grading. 92 Aneuploidy was found in 0% of the tumors with Gleason score between 2 and 4 in 62% between 5 and 7 and in 50% between 8 and 10. Our results suggest there is no relationship between the two parameters.File in questo prodotto:
