Abstract:
DNA flow cytometric analysis was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue from 10 cases of squamous cell eareinoma (SCC) and 10 cases of basal cell carcinoma(BCC). These results were applicable to do a better prognosis in BCC than SCC. In 10 cases of SCC, the DNA index was 1.34 and aneuploidy was identified in 9. In 10 cases of BCC, the DNA index was 1.30 and aneuploidy was identified in 6.
