Abstract
PURPOSE:Our laboratory has previously shown that tumors are more easily established and grow larger after laparotomy vs. laparoscopy. The purpose of this study was to better characterize these differences in tumor growth by assessing tumor cell proliferation via the proliferating cell nucleaKeywords
