IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDY OF RENAL CELL CARCINOMA——THE EXPRESSION OF KERATIN AND VIMENTIN / 解放军医学杂志

ABSTRACT

The study of renal cell carcinoma(RCC) was made in immunohistochemical expression of keratin and vimemin in 40 cases. 17.5% (7/40) of routine formalin-fixed, paraffin sectioned RCC specimens expressed vimentin. From a surgical pathological point of view, therefore, vimentin positive could no longer exclude an epithelial neoplasm, such as RCC.
