Abstract:
Objective To detect the state of microsatellite instability (MSI) and investigate the relationship between MSI and clinical pathological parameters in esophageal cancer. Methods MSI was analyzed by PCR SSCP method. Results MSI was detected (22 22%) in 45 cases of esophageal cancer. Effects of MSI on clinical stage, pathological classification, lymph node metastasis, and invasion were not found. Conclusion MSI may be an early molecular pathway and play a certain role in the development of the esophageal cancer.
