CDX2 staining in tissue microarray sections. (a) A colonic adenoma with strong nuclear staining. (b) Four samples of colorectal adenocarcinoma demonstrating varying degrees of staining. (c) Closer view of staining in a moderately differentiated colonic adenocarcinoma. (d) A poorly differentiated colonic adenocarcinoma with patchy nuclear staining. (e) Ovarian carcinoma, endometrioid variant, with positive nuclear staining.

Figure 2.

CDX2 staining in whole tissue sections. (a) Metastatic colonic adenocarcinoma in the lung highlighted by strong nuclear staining and some cytoplasmic staining for CDX2. (b) A section of duodenum showing positive staining of the normal mucosa, but no staining of the underlying ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. (c) Ampullary adenocarcinoma with positive nuclear staining; note that the adjacent small pancreatic ducts showed only slight cytoplasmic staining.
