Defective Mismatch-Repair Colorectal Cancer

2004-09-01

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of our study was to determine the usefulness of immunohistochemical analysis for the diagnosis of mismatch-repair (MMR) gene defective colorectal tumors and to describe their prevalence and clinicopathologic characteristics. We studied 172 cases. DNA was extracted from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded surgical samples, and microsatellite analysis was performed by polymerase chain reaction with BAT-26....
