Abstract
The relation between tumour spread, histological differentiation, and in-vitro antitumour immunoreactivity was studied in 132 cases of carcinoma of the large bowel. Positive correlations were found between blood lymphocyte antitumour cytotoxicity and both tumour differentiation and absence of recurrence or metastatic spread.Keywords
