pubmed-article:8562385 | pubmed:abstractText | A 60-year-old female with ovarian carcinoma showed marked leucocytosis. After exploratory laparotomy she had received carboplatin-based chemotherapy, but she died of respiratory failure. In this case the immunohistochemical examination of the tumour cells showed partial-positive staining for anti-G-CSF monoclonal antibody in addition to the elevation of the serum G-CSF concentration. This case is the first report of an ovarian carcinoma producing G-CSF. | lld:pubmed |
