[Assessment of the immunohistological state of the lymph nodes regional to a tumor].
Immunoreactivity of lymph nodes regional to the tumour was studied in 22 patients with melanoma. T and B lymphocytes were detected by means of the blast transformation, rosette-formation tests and by immunofluorescence. Lymphocytes were collected from one half of the lymph node, whereas the other half was subjected to histological studies. The results obtained indicate that the functional activity of regional lymph nodes correlates well with morhological findings.
