ABSTRACT

At the present time, cancer affects millions of persons worldwide. Due to this fact, research in this area is thorough. Nevertheless, there are many voids in knowledge. Today it is known that from early stages, a neoplastic process can deliver cells to the bloodstream that have similar characteristics to the tumor cells (Circulating Tumor Cells, CTCs). Given certain condition, these cells can anchor to almost any tissue different to the original and generate a new tumor growth (metastasis). The purpose of this revision is to describe the behavior, identification and clinical relevancy in diagnosis and prognosis of these cells, as well as a risk agent in transfusion therapy.
