| Popis: | Objective This study aimed to analyze the correlation between the immunoexpression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TiMP1) in the uterosacral ligaments in patients with uterine prolapse. Methods This analytic-correlative cross-sectional study included 32 patients who were admitted at the Hasan Sadikin General Hospital from July to December 2013. Sixteen of the patients had uterine prolapse, while the rest did not. The patients underwent total hysterectomy, radical hysterectomy, or staging laparotomy. MMP-9 and TiMP1 expression in the uterosacral ligaments was measured via immunohistochemical staining. The median expression per field of view was calculated using a histoscore. Results MMP-9 expression in patients with uterine prolapse was found to be higher than that in the control group. Meanwhile, TiMP1 expression showed no significant difference between the groups. Spearman’s analysis showed a moderate correlation between the expression of MMP-9 and uterine prolapse incidence (P=0.02), with a correlation coefficient of 0.574. Conclusion There is a moderate correlation between MMP-9 expression and the incidence of uterine prolapse. It can be considered one of the primary etiologies of uterine prolapse. |
