Seeding of epithelial cells into circulation during surgery for breast cancer: the fate of malignant and benign mobilized cells
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Surgery of malignant tumors has long been suspected to be the reason for enhancement of growth of metastases with fatal outcome. This often prevented surgeons from touching the tumor if not absolutely necessary. We have shown in lung...
