title: [Morphologic diagnosis of Merkel cell cancer of the skin].
abstract: Four cases of this carcinoma have been examined by cytologic and histologic methods and electron microscopy. The tumor may be diagnosed by light optics, and electron microscopy is highly effective here too. Examinations of the tumor and metastases puncture biopsy specimens permit the detection of undifferentiated small-cell carcinoma before the treatment.
