Abstract
A prospective study of cellular DNA content was made by means of flow cytometry in a nonconsecutive series of 100 patients undergoing surgery for primary colorectal adenocarcinoma. DNA‐aneuploidy was present in 80% of cases (80/100); 39% of these were multiclonal (31/80). There was no significant correlation between DNA‐ploidy and the clinical and pathological features examined, except for the primary tumor site (right colon vs. left colon vs. rectum: P P P <0.05).Keywords
