Description
Abstract
As a preliminary investigation in the
evaluation of the argyrophilic nucleolar organiser region
(AgNOR) technique in colonic dysplasia, quantitation
of AgNORs was carried out in biopsies of normal rectal
mucosa and tubulovillous adenomas. The AgNOR
counts in the lower third of the normal crypts were
approximately twice those in the surface mucosa but
there was no significant difference between counts in
normal crypt bases and adenomas. It is concluded that
the AgNOR technique is unlikely to be of value in the
assessment of colonic dysplasia.
