| pubmed-article:2481110 | pubmed:abstractText | A method for the determination of surface proteins and cellular elements cytoskeleton proteins in exudates from the pleural cavity is described. Use of this method has helped identify carcinoma cells in exudates of 19 patients out of the 21 examinees with oncologic diseases and permitted a characterization of the subpopulation composition of lymphocytes. This method may be employed as an additional test for the detection of carcinoma cells in exudates from serous cavities. | lld:pubmed |
