Immunostaining of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, MIB1 antigen, and c-erbB-2 oncoprotein in cytologic specimens: a simplified method with formalin fixation.

abstract：:Fine-needle aspiration of prostatic carcinoma usually yields an acinar carcinoma that is immunoreactive for prostatic-specific antigen (PSA) and prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP). We report on two FNAs of metastatic sarcomatoid prostatic carcinoma that were PSA- and PAP-negative. Our methods included a review of the me...
