In two cases of Merkel cell tumor, the study of intermediate filaments, using monoclonal antibodies (vimentin, cytokeratin, neurofilaments), confirmed the double differentiation (neuroendocrine and epithelial) of this tumor as previously observed in histological, electron microscopical and histochemical analyses. Labelling of the tumor cells was positive with monoclonal antibodies against neurofilament proteins and cytokeratin.
