Abstract excerpt
Many emerging tools for comprehensive molecular profiling of malignant lesions demand fresh frozen tissue with a high tumor purity. Often, a tumor epithelial content of at least 80% is recommended. This approach may lead to a systematic bias, and therefore we explore if this introduces a selection of cases with a certain phenotype in cervical cancer. Clinicopathologic data for a population-based cohort of 328...
