Prognostic stratification of brain metastases from hepatocellular carcinoma.

abstract：:An anti-epithelial membrane antigen monoclonal (Clone E29) was used as part of a panel of antisera in the investigation of primary CNS and metastatic tumours. In contrast to others, definite and often strongly positive cross-reactivity has been demonstrated on glial cells. The material consisted of fourteen astrocytom...
