Abstract:
AIM: To study the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in inflammatory mucosa of lacrimal sac. METHODS: Immunohistochemical S-P method was used to examine the expression of VEGF in the mocusa from 12 patients with chronic dacryocystitis and 8 volunteers. RESULTS: The positive rates of VEGF expression in different parts of the mocusa were: basal lamina: 44.3%+7.6%; surface epithelium: 16.9%?4.6%; connective tissue: 15.2%?4.9%, all normal mocusa of 8 cases were negative. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P
