[Mastocytes in the process of cancerogenesis. II. Precancerous conditions and carcinomas of the uterine cervix].
A standard evaluation of mast cell numbers was performed in 110 cases of cervical precanceroses and carcinomas in comparison with bioptic samples without any pathologic lesion. Pathologic lesions were accompanied by an increase of mast cell numbers--except cases with abnormal epithelium. Peak numbers were found in preinvasive carcinoma. Mast cell numbers in invasive carcinoma were beyond an average level of control samples but obviously under those in preinvasive carcinoma.
