To describe detailed phenotypic and genotypic analysis of a pleomorphic adenocarcinoma of the ciliary epithelium (CE).
An 86-year-old white woman developed an enlarging mass protruding from her previously eviscerated left eye 2 months postoperatively. Based on light and ultrastructural microscopy, the final diagnosis was a pleomorphic adenocarcinoma of the ciliary epithelium (CE).
Cell proliferation indices confirmed the unusually rapid growth rate of this tumor; the peridiploid DNA content might explain the relatively low incidence of distant metastases. An imbalance of the chromosome 6 was also found by Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH).
描述睫状体上皮多形性腺癌的详细表型和基因型分析。
一名86岁白人女性在左眼眼球摘除术后2个月,出现一个从手术眼突出且不断增大的肿块。基于光镜和超微结构显微镜检查,最终诊断为睫状体上皮多形性腺癌。
细胞增殖指数证实了该肿瘤异常快速的生长速度;亚二倍体DNA含量可能解释了远处转移相对较低的发生率。通过比较基因组杂交(CGH)还发现了6号染色体的不平衡。
