[Immune reactions in assessing the disease prognosis in soft tissue sarcomas].
Under examination were 60 patients with local forms of soft tissue sarcomas of various histological structure. By means of skin delayed hypersensitivity test for dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) and tuberculin as well as cell immunity reaction in vitro the immune response was shown to be of value in estimating the prognosis of the disease. The dynamics of immune reactions 2-3 months following the operation proved to be of greatest prognostic value. Among the employed immunological tests the skin test for DNCB and the reaction of spontaneous rosette-forming provided the most comprehensive information as to the control over the clinical course of malignant lesion.
