Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To analyze the relationship of VEGF-C expression,lymphatic microvessel density and cervical lymph node metastasis in human laryngeal cancer,as well as the relationship of VEGF-C expression and lymphatic microvessel density.METHODS VEGF-C expression and lymphatic microvessel density were detected in 47 laryngeal cancer tissues with SP immunohistochemical method. RESULTS The positive rates of VEGF-C in theⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲpathological grade level were 55 %,72.22 %, 88.89% respectively,and its expression was significantly correlated with tumor differentiation(P
