Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship of the expression of VEGF-C and the metastasis of the lymphoid nodes in laryngeal cancer.Methods:Using immunohistochemistry method, the expression of VEGF-C in the tumor tissues and the density of lymphatic in adjacent tissue of laryngeal carcinoma were detected.Results:The expression of VEGF-C in laryngeal carcinoma was higher than in vocal cord polyp and in lymphoid node-positive was higher than in node-negative. Density of lymphatic capillary in adjacent tissue of laryngeal carcinoma was much higher than in normal laryngeal tissue and in lymphoid node-positive was higher than in node-negative.Conclusion:VEGF-C protein expression is close to lymphatic metastasis.
