The current study revealed a correlation between the histologic grade of chondrosarcoma and prognosis, and the concomitant association between CTGF immunostaining and tumor grade and prognosis. Therefore, immunohistochemical staining with CTGF is a useful procedure for assessing the tumor grade and clinical course in patients with chondrosarcoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
