据近期出版的《实验医学病理杂志》报道,免疫组化标记物有助于区分原发性胃癌和从乳腺癌转移到胃肠道(GI)的转移癌。美国波士顿Brigham妇科医院的Fionnuala P.O’Connell医生对此解释说,乳腺癌通常易转移至胃肠道系统,尤其是胃部,临床上较难与原发性胃癌相区别。尽管浸润性胃肠道腺癌与乳腺小叶癌有着相似的细胞形态学特征,如单个细胞生长的模式 According to the recently published Journal of Experimental Medical Pathology, immunohistochemical markers help distinguish primary gastric cancer from metastases from breast cancer to the gastrointestinal tract (GI). Fionnuala P. O’Connell, MD, of Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, explained that breast cancer is usually easily translocated to the gastrointestinal system, especially the stomach, and is more difficult to differentiate clinically from primary gastric cancer. Although invasive gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma has similar morphological features of breast lobular carcinoma such as the pattern of single cell growth
