Histological and Immunological Evaluation of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors
Background: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) constitute the majority of gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors. They usually express a proto-oncogen protein called CD117 detected by immunohistochemistry. This study investigated the differentiation of GISTs as well as the risk of aggressive behaviors in GISTs from surgically-treated patients in university affiliated hospitals. Methods: The c...

متن کاملNeuronal properties of neuroectodermal tumors in vitro.
Cell lines of medulloblastoma, retinoblastoma, and neuroblastoma, three childhood tumors derived from neuroectoderm, have been compared with respect to their neuronal properties. Neuroblastoma, a neural crest derivative, has been shown to express specific neuronal enzymes and the action potential sodium ionophore. Cell lines of medulloblastoma and retinoblastoma also express neuronal specific e...
متن کاملComputed tomography of primitive neuroectodermal tumors.
The primitive neuroectodermal tumor is a neoplasm of young individuals that occurs predominantly in the supratentorial compartment. It appears on computed tomography as a bulky mass, often with calcification with predominantly homogeneous enhancement but on occasion with cystic or necrotic areas. Cerebrospinal fluid seeding was observed in more than half the cases in our series. The patients ha...
