(10) The nature of these infiltrative foci remains uncertain; however, they are unlikely to have been of neoplastic origin and may be due to interleukin-2-induced lymphocytic infiltration.
(11) Light microscopy of both apneics and snorers revealed mucous gland hypertrophy with ductal dilation and focal squamous metaplasia, disruption of muscle bundles by infiltrating mucous glands, focal atrophy of muscle fibers, and extensive edema of the lamina propria with vascular dilation.
(12) A statistically significant association (P less than 0.01) was demonstrated between the degree of intratumoral lymphocytic infiltrate and the expression of HLA-DR and HLA-DQ antigens.
(13) In the univariate life-table analysis, recurrence-free survival was significantly related to age, pTNM category, tumour size, presence of certain growth patterns, tumour necrosis, tumour infiltration in surrounding thyroid tissue and thyroid gland capsule, lymph node metastases, presence of extra-nodal tumour growth and number of positive lymph nodes, whereas only tumour diameter, thyroid gland capsular infiltration and presence of extra-nodal tumour growth remained as significant prognostic factors in the multivariate analysis.
(14) Of the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes (mostly CD4+ cells) prevailed over B-lymphocytes.
(15) In the area of the porta hepatis, there were many epithelial luminal structures in fibrous tissue with inflammatory infiltrates.
(16) Staplers were used and therefore the choice between resection or amputation was determined by the degree of loco-regional infiltration of the neoplasm.

(19) The expanded tumor-infiltrating cells were Leu-4+ T cells, and in five of six patients the majority were Leu-3+.
(20) Furthermore, non-coordinate expression of DR and DQW1 was present in 8 out of 40 carcinomas, with the proportion of DQW1 positive epithelium always being less than that of DR. Carcinomas exhibiting non-coordinate expression were never well differentiated; there was no relationship with the extent of the inflammatory infiltrate.
