Clinicohistopathological study and expression of CK7 and CK20 in mucinous tumors of gastrointestinal tract and ovary

Background: Mucinous ovarian tumors differ from other types of epithelial cancers in their clinical behaviour and the need for innovative treatment approaches to achieve improved patient outcomes. Immunohistochemistry plays an important role diagnosis differentiates primary secondary mucinous tumors. To know distribution expression CK7 CK20 ovary gastrointestinal tract.Methods: Ninety eight cases tract were analysed as per standard protocol out which malignant constituted forty five cases. All 45 carcinoma subjected IHC CK20. The results analysed.Results: Total 64 total 34 Predominant was positive positive, metastatic gastric origin colorectal negative positive. Signet ring cell stomach showed diffuse positivity with focal positivity. Colorectal varied stage disease.Conclusions: differentiating arising lower tract.CK7 CK 20 is variable disease hence should be interpreted background histopathology.
