作者检查172例恶性卵巢肿瘤的细胞核的性染色体。组织块是用Feulgen氏染色后计算100—150个核。如有10％以上的典型核染色体出现则称为阳性,如少于10％称为阴性。全部病例是在1948—57年间手术的。172例的分类如下,62例卵巢癌无其他分化,42例腺癌,29例囊腺癌,18例囊肿恶变,5例颗粒细胞瘤,11例Krukenberg瘤及1例畸胎瘤。 The authors examined the nuclear chromosomes of 172 malignant ovarian tumors. Tissue blocks were counted from 100 to 150 nuclei after staining with Feulgen. If more than 10% of the typical nuclear chromosome appears as positive, such as less than 10% is called negative. All cases were operated during 1948-57. 172 cases were classified as follows: 62 cases of ovarian cancer without further differentiation, 42 cases of adenocarcinoma, 29 cases of cystadenocarcinoma, 18 cases of malignant cyst, 5 cases of granular cell tumor, 11 cases of Krukenberg’s tumor and 1 case of teratoma.
