[Tissue microarrays in immunohistochemistry].
Tissue microarrays are an ordered array of tissue cores in a paraffin block. They permit immunohistochemical analysis of numerous sections of archival formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Short information on the construction is given and the authors' modification is described. Sixteen tissue microarrays out of 252 archival cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with diffuse small cell, diffuse large cell and blastic morphology were immunophenotyped. Leading technical problems are discussed. The design and precision in execution of a tissue microarray have a role to obtain valid results.
