Abstract:
Objective To compare clinical-pathological features and Ki-67 expression profile between TNBC and Non-triple-negative cancer (NTNBC). Methods The expressions of ER, PR and HER2 were examined by immunohisto?chemical Envision double staining in 226 cases of breast cancer. All cases were divided into triple-negative and non-triple-negative group according to expressions of these three episodes. And Ki-67 expressions in two groups were assessed by im?munohistochemical method. The difference of Ki-67 positive index between these two groups and the difference of Ki-67 positive index between different clinical-pathological features were both analyzed by comparative analysis. Results In pa?tients with TNBC, tumor size, lymph node metastasis rate and Ki-67 index were all significantly higher than that in NTNBC. No significant difference in age and histological grade were detected between these two groups. The expression of Ki-67 was not significant correlated with age, tumor size,lymph node status and histological grade in these two groups. Conclusion Patients with triple-negative breast cancer were with larger tumor size, higher proliferation, more lymph node metastasis and poorer prognosis.
