Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between microvessel density (MVD) and the clinical features of thyroid follicular tumors. MethodsThe immunohistochemical staining was used to determine MVD in 40 cases of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and 20 cases of follicular adenoma (FA). Results MVD of FTC(228?91)was significantly higher than that of FA (156?73, t =2 763, P
