Abstract
Scanning and transmission electron microscopy revealed similar changes of erythrocyte surface and ultrastructure in patients with lung, stomach and colorectal cancer, head and neck tumors. The number of discocytes was sharply reduced, the percentage of transitional, prehemolytic, and degenerative forms increased, while erythrocyte ultrastructure was often disordered.
