[A flow cytometric study of the DNA content from paraffin-embedded samples of keratoacanthoma and squamous cell carcinoma].
DNA-flow cytometry was performed on paraffin-embedded tissues from 7 cases of keratoacanthoma (KA) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Proliferation index of tumor cells (% greater than 4SD) was defined as the percentage of cells that exceeded the diploid peak (G0G1) plus 4 standard deviations (SD). Proliferation index (% greater than 4SD) was lower than 20% in six out of 7 cases of KA, but higher than 25% in six out of 7 cases of SCC. One case of SCC showed a DNA aneuploidy. These results indicate that DNA-flow cytometry analysis using paraffin-embedded tissues may be a useful tool in differential diagnosis between keratoacanthoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
