Popis: | Background/Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation between the rate of proliferation and immunohistochemical expression of E-cadherin, and their predictive role in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Materials and Methods: Samples were collected from 50 patients with HNSCC, and the expression of Ki-67 and E-cadherin was evaluated by immunohisto-chemistry (IHC). Previously, samples were conventionally stained with haematoxylin and eosin for histological diagnosis and grade. Results: High E-cadherin expression was predominantly associated with less differentiated tumours (p |
