pubmed:abstractText
A selected panel of monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) directed to distinct tumor associated antigens (TAA) has been tested to define the capability of these reagents to differentiate among metastatic carcinoma, lymphoma and primary brain tumor on cytologic specimens obtained with stereotactic techniques. Results obtained on 50 patients bearing either single or multiple brain lesions demonstrated that immunocytochemical (ICC) methods can distinguish between primary brain tumor and brain metastasis suggesting, in 90% of patients with cryptic primary neoplasia, the site of origin of the tumor.
