[Determination of estrogen receptors in cytological smears of breast carcinoma biopsy samples using monoclonal antibodies (ER-ICA monoclonal)].
The immunocytochemical method with monoclonal antibodies for estrogen receptors has been presented. This method has been adjusted for fine needle aspirates of the breast carcinoma tissue. The procedure of collecting, fixating, staining of aspirates and interpreting of our first results was described. Estrogen receptors were determined in 19 cytologic samples of the breast carcinoma. In more than a half of the investigated samples (11/19), the results were negative, whereas only a smaller number (8/19) provided positive results. The results were compared with those obtained using a quantitative biochemical method which was employed in investigating of tumor tissue. The value of this method compared with the sofar known methods has been discussed.
