Comparing the efficacy of routine H&E staining and cytokeratin immunohistochemical staining in detection of micro-metastasis on serial sections of dye-mapped sentinel lymph nodes in colorectal carcinoma

Comparing the efficacy of routine H&E staining and cytokeratin immunohistochemical staining in detection of micro-metastasis on serial sections of dye-mapped sentinel lymph nodes in colorectal carcinoma

Background: The significance of techniques used for detecting micro-metastasis (MM) or isolated tumor cells (ITCs) is a controversial issue among investigators. We evaluated the different techniques used on sentinel lymph node (SLN) to detect MM/ITCs. Materials and Methods: Ninety-one SLNs of 15 p...
