Abstract
- A case of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is presented. Epstein-Barr viral genome was identified in the neoplastic cells by in situ hybridization with digoxigeninlabelled polymerase chain reaction-generated probes. We report the development of this technique in paraffinembedded sections and propose that such identification may prove valuable for the diagnosis of this tumour in routine material.
