Cytokeratin immunoreactivity of intestinal metaplasia at normal oesophagogastric junction indicates its aetiology.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cytokeratin (CK) 7 and 20 patterns are specific for long and short segments of Barrett's oesophagus but their use has not been assessed in intestinal metaplasia arising in macroscopically normal gastro-oesophageal junction (GOJ). PATIENTS AND METHODS This study was carried out in a large prospective series of 254 patients who underwent upper endoscopy, had normal gastro-oe...
متن کاملCytokeratin expression in squamous metaplasia of the human uterine cervix.
The expression of cytokeratin polypeptides in squamous metaplasia of the human uterine cervix was investigated by immunocytochemical labeling with polypeptide-specific antibodies against cytokeratins. Immunofluorescence microscopic examination of cervical tissues using various monoclonal antibodies indicated that squamous cervical metaplasia expresses a unique set of cytokeratin polypeptides, t...
متن کاملHistopathogenesis of intestinal metaplasia: minute lesions of intestinal metaplasia in ulcerated stomachs.
Minute lesions of intestinal metaplasia composed of a few metaplastic tubules were observed in the gastric mucosa during routine histological examination of gastrectomy specimens. The histological findings indicated that these lesions might be an initial stage of more advanced intestinal metaplasia. Accordingly, more than 18,000 serial sections in 10 stomachs with chronic ulcers were examined t...
متن کاملCytokeratin immunoreactivity in Ewing sarcoma/ primitive neuroectodermal tumour.
Ewing sarcoma (ES)/ primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET) is an aggressive malignant neoplasm affecting mainly children and young adults. The tumour is included with other primitive neoplasms under the category of small round cell tumour. Cytokeratin expression in ES/PNET has been described in sporadic case reports as well as a few systemic series. We studied this feature in Malaysian patient...
متن کاملPrimary cutaneous signet ring cell carcinoma expressing cytokeratin 20 immunoreactivity.
Primary cutaneous signet ring cell carcinoma (PCSRCC) is a very unusual but distinctive clinicopathologic entity that can simulate metastatic adenocarcinomas. It is defined as a diffuse malignant epithelial neoplasia localized in the dermis and subcutis without epidermal involvement, showing variable amounts of signet ring cells, without evidence of visceral adenocarcinoma. We present 2 cases o...
