| Popis: | The aim of the study was to assess immunohistochemical CD34, podoplanin and Ki-67 expression in cervical tumour of patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) staged IIB and IIIB, a relationship with selected clinical and histological parameters and its prognostic significance. This prospective study included 52 patients. Microvessel density (MVD) by CD34, lymphatic vessel density (LVD) by podoplanin and the Ki-67 index in specimens from paraffin blocks with cervical SCC tissues were examined. The relationship between these data and selected clinical and histological parameters was analysed. Positive correlation of MVD and the Ki-67 index was observed. No correlation was observed for MVD, LVD and the Ki-67 index in the tumour with staging, grading, length of treatment and squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) concentration before and after treatment. The expression of MVD, LVD and the Ki-67 index in cervical SCC did not contribute to the risk of relapse and cancer-related death. No relationship was found for MVD, LVD and the Ki-67 index in cervical tumour of patients with locally advanced cervical SCC with staging, grading and serum SCC-Ag level. MVD, LVD and the Ki-67 index in the tumour did not contribute to the risk of relapse or cervical SCC-related death.Impact Statement |
