Abstract
The identification of pretreatment markers with predictive significance for the presence of lymph node metastases and treatment outcome in low stage cancer of the uterine cervix is clinically important. Because the presence of differentiation-related markers varies in this type of cancer, the authors investigated whether loss of these markers is related to a poor clinical course. An indirect immunoperoxidase technique was applied to formalin fixed, paraffin embedded tissue sections of 80 patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics Stage IB and IIA primary squamous cell cervical carcinomas for detection of expression of cytokeratin 10 and 13, and involucrin. Comparisons were made of the expression of each of these markers among 40 patients with regional node metastases and 40 age-matched patients with no lymph node metastases. Differences in the frequency of expression of these markers also were analyzed in relation to histopathologic characteristics, recurrence, and survival. Expression of cytokeratin 10, 13, and involucrin was found in 24, 64, and 53%, respectively, of all patients studied. The authors found no differences between patients with positive regional lymph nodes and those with negative lymph...Continue Reading
