hepatocellular carcinoma
. The hyalin stained positively with anti-Mallory body antibody by the peroxidase antiperoxidase technique, and had the characteristic filamentous and granular amorphous appearance of alcoholic hyalin by electron microscopy. Our observation is of interest in light of recent information relating Mallory bodies to prekeratin, and vitamin A deficiency to lung cancer.
