Colon epithelial tumours from 682 patients have been analyzed. The incidence of the background processes in the mucous membrane adjacent to the tumour is established as a function of tumour progression. Transition of the mucus formation to the sialomucin synthesis in the transitional mucous membrane was observed in 1/3 of the cases. Of prognostic value for the 5-year survival were such indices as a stage of the disease according to Guttman and Dukes, tumour macroscopy, the state of regional lymph nodes and the degree of carcinoma differentiation. The data on the content of the immunocompetent cells, tissue basophils and their degranulation, eosinophils, lymphocyte plasmatization, depending on the stage of the disease are also presented. |
