title: [Possible prognostic role of PCNA in colonic adenomas].
abstract: Proliferating cell index has been valued in colic adenomas, using anti PCNA-PC10 antibody. The results have been compared with grading. An high proliferating grade has been shown in patients with multiple adenomas: this finding suggests a prognostic value of proliferating cell index.
