The Use of the Red Cell Surface Antigen to Predict the Malignant Potential of Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Ureter and Renal Pelvis

Abstract
This is the 1st report on the use of the red cell surface antigen test in predicting the malignant potential of transitional cell carcinoma of the ureter and renal pelvis. In 29 [human] cases evaluated there was an 80% correlation. The red cell surface antigen determination evidently had practical value in the management of these tumors.
