Immunological studies in breast cancer.
In the present study elevated IgM serum levels have been found in patients with breast cancer who presented sinus histiocytosis and had no node metastases. IgG values were increased in Stage II. This finding further strengthens the view that immunological phenomena play a significant role in the biological behaviour of breast cancer.
