Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between degree of deeper infiltration of NPC on CT scan,prognosis and expression of P53 protein,in order to further recognize bilogical features of NPC.Methods Collect 70 NPC biopsy specimens,which had performed CT scan before radiotherapy and had detailed clinical records.The expression of P53 protein was examined by means of S-P immunohistochemical technique.The correlation between expression of P53 protein and peripheral deeper infiltration and prognosis was analysed in detailed.Results The results of these cases showed that the positive rate of over expression P53 were 68.57%,which had no relation with the histological types and pathological grades.The positive rate of P53 in Ⅱ、Ⅲ types had a higher positive rate than that of the Ⅰ type of NPC.Expression of P53 protein had no relation with neck lymph node metastasis,but had significant correlation with the size of metastatic lymph node,which is the positive rate of P53 in diameter of metastatic lymph node ＜4 cm was higher than that of diameter ≥4 cm.Expression of P53 had no relation with local recurrence and distant metastasis after radiotherapy.Conclusion With the tumor infiltrating the deeper layer of nasopharynx,the positive rate of P53 expression is more and more high,and degree of malignant is increasing.The three types on CT scan represents the biological features of NPC.
