[Histonet] De-differentiated tumor vs. Radiation effect

[Lott, Robert]

Hi Everyone,

One of our pathologist has some IHC results that is a bit confusing...

Patient had previous Squamous cell Ca of the lung... had long courses of
radiation and Chemo...eventually died...

 

At autopsy, the tumor looks much more primitive and bizarre than
before... radiation effect, etc...

 

Are the any published papers that have looked at the effects of
radiation on pre and post IHC staining.... Any help would be
appreciated.

 

Robert
