Popis: | Aims : This study was prompted by published observations concerning the absence of normal bile canalicular CD10 staining in some cases of primary liver cell carcinoma. Our aim was to investigate the possibility that this loss of staining occurs prior to the development of cancer. Methods and results : The study comprised 164 liver biopsies, including 96 from patients with hepatitis C infection of various grades and stages including nine cases with cirrhosis, 24 other cases of cirrhosis of other aetiology, five cases of primary liver carcinoma, 12 cases of metastatic carcinoma, as well as biopsies with a variety of other liver diseases. CD10 was demonstrated in paraffin sections using the avidin–biotin immunoperoxidase technique. In hepatitis C cases, a significant loss of the canalicular pattern was seen in four out of 41 (10%) biopsies with stages 0–1 compared with 25 out of 55 (45%) with stages 2–6 (P |
