Lymphovascular Invasion Evaluation by the CD31 Expression in Gastric Adenocarcinoma

Background & Objective: Lymphovascular tumoral invasion is a typical histopathological feature of gastric carcinomas and supports the recognition high-risk patients for recurrence. We aimed to study CD31 expression in diverse subtypes show its association with histopathologic findings carcinoma assess prognosis.Methods: This cross-sectional was conducted on 40 established adenocarcinoma from radical gastrectomy. The were classified according pathology assessments. Tumoral tissues assessed by immunohistochemical staining expression. Malignant behavior estimated evaluations.Results: positivity described 23 (57.5%) all evaluated patients. assessment tumor features presented no significant between patients’ age, sex, site, size, grade stage, carcinoma, perineural invasion, also lymphovascular (P>0.05).Conclusion: makes valuable additional evidence that might be useful detect at high risk recurrence, who could candidates more supplementary therapies. However, our society, did not any aggressive this tumor.
