Abstract

In previous papers the techniques for the study of the migration pattern of tumor cells through the host tissues were described. In the present communication studies utilizing Yoshida ascitic tumor cells are referred. Neoplastic cells morphologically identified were counted in several organs at various times of the development of the tumor transplantation. This method appears to provide interesting indications about the dynamics of the neoplastic spread through the tissues.
