Angiogenesis, Lymphangiogenesis and Lymphovascular Invasion: Prognostic Impact for Bladder Cancer Patients
Bladder cancer is the second most common tumor of the urogenital tract. Urothelial carcinoma is the most frequent histologic type, being unique among epithelial carcinomas in its divergent pathways of tumorigenesis. Surgery continues to have a predominant role in the management of urothelial bladder cancer (Kaufman et al., 2009). However, the debate about the best treatment approach for T1G3 an...
متن کاملPrognostic Significance of Lymphovascular Space Invasion in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
OBJECT To assess the effects of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) on cancer recurrence and survival in patients with primary epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted of patients with stage I-IV primary epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent cytoreductive surgery. LVSI is defined as the presence of tumor cells within an endothelium-lined space, and the patient...
متن کاملLymphovascular invasion: assessment and prognostic impact in melanoma and breast cancer.
The presence of lymphovascular invasion is a recognised poor prognostic factor in a wide range of tumour types. Vascular invasion was historically identified through haematoxylin and eosin staining, however this technique is non-specific and differentiates poorly between blood and lymphatic vessels. Newer techniques using immunohistochemistry allow more sensitive and specific identification of ...
متن کاملLymphovascular invasion in colorectal cancer: an interobserver variability study.
BACKGROUND Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in colorectal cancer (CRC) is considered a strong stage-independent prognostic factor and influences decisions regarding adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with stage II tumors. However, the degree of interobserver agreement among pathologists for LVI in CRC is largely unknown. This study was undertaken to examine such interobserver variability, and we hy...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of lymphovascular invasion diagnosed by lymphatic endothelium immunostaining in breast cancer patients.
Prognostic factors for breast cancer include axillary lymph node status, tumor size, histology, nuclear grade, presence of estrogen and progesterone receptors, HER2/neu status, and mean microvessel density (MVD). In this study, we evaluated the usefulness of a new marker, D2-40, by investigating lymph vascular invasion of the tumor immunohistochemically in 132 patients with breast cancer and co...
