Nuclear Ploidy as an Indicator of Malignancy of Intraductal Pancreatic Papillary Mucinous Tumors

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

We carried out comparative morphometric and densitometric analysis of cell nuclei in pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous tumors. Proliferative activity values, aneuploidy coefficient, and histogram of nuclear DNA content are recommended as additional criteria for the diagnosis of tumor malignancy.
