Storage of Frozen Sections in Paraffin Blocks.
The development of the techniques for cutting frozen sections, in particular the use of cryostat microtomes (Pearse, 1960; Cunningham, Bitensky, Chayen, and Silcox, 1960 and 1962; Goodbody, 1963 a and b; Cunningham, 1963), has resulted in sections which not only are produced routinely very rapidly but which are completely acceptable histologically. Such sections would be ideal, especially where...
متن کاملPrognostic value of tumour thickness in cutaneous malignant melanoma.
The relation between survival and histological features in 91 patients with malignant melanoma was studied and the results were analysed by Clayton's method for interpretation of censored survival data. There was a significant correlation between tumour thickness and survival. The risk of dying from malignant melanoma after 10 years of follow up was less than 15% if the primary tumour was less ...
متن کاملComparison of Three Staining Methods of Vibratome and Paraffin Sections in Preserving Thickness of Rat Hippocampal Sections
Purpose: To determine the optimal technique for maintaining hippocampus vibratome sections volume. Materials and Methods: This experimental study was performed on three rat hippocampus. The first hippocampus was embedded in paraffin and using rotary microtome forty sections were cut in a nominal thickness of 100 micrometer. They were then ordinary stained. The two others were cut into 80 sectio...
متن کاملParaffin-Embedded and Frozen Sections of Drosophila Adult Muscles
The molecular characterization of muscular dystrophies and myopathies in humans has revealed the complexity of muscle disease and genetic analysis of muscle specification, formation and function in model systems has provided valuable insight into muscle physiology. Therefore, identifying and characterizing molecular mechanisms that underlie muscle damage is critical. The structure of adult Dros...
متن کاملCutaneous malignant melanoma.
Skin cancer has become the most common neoplasm in the United States. With early diagnosis and appropriate management, most skin cancers have an overall 5-year survival rate of 95%. Cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), however, has a significantly higher morbidity and mortality, resulting in 65% of all skin cancer deaths. Although the long-term survival rate for patients with metastatic melanoma...
