Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of VEGF and microvascular density (MVD) in pancreatic carcinoma and their prognostic value. Methods The protein expression of VEGF and MVD were determined with immunohistochemistry in 48 cases of pancreatic ductal carcinomas, which were surgically resected and pathologically confirmed. Results In 64.6% of pancreatic carcinomas the expression of VEGF was positive, and it was significantly higher than that of normal pancreatic tissues (P
