Abstract: Objective -To investigate microvessel density as a risk factor in squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. Methods -Fifty patients with penile carcinoma were evaluated retrospectively. The mean age and standard deviation were 60.8±11.8 years. All of them were treated by penectomy and with positive nodes underwent groin lymphadenectomy. Tumor grading was 36 G1 and 24 G2/3. Primary lesion stage was 22 pT1 and 28 pT2-4. Positive inguinal nodes were observed in 18 patients. Selected paraffin embedded sections were su… Show more

“…Overexpression of CD34 has been identified as a risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (Cui et al, 1996). Martins et al (2002) reported that no link exists between CD34 expression and tumor grade and stage factors. They also confirmed the lack of correlation between the marker and prognosis.…”

“…The CD34 expression is significantly associated with adenomas containing severe dysplasia and large adenomas (more than 1 cm) (Qasim et al, 2012;Sidney et al, 2014). In many other immunohistochemical studies, the expression of this protein is used as a reliable marker to evaluate cancer tumors including: colon (Moreira et al, 2011;Sidney et al, 2014), blood (Borowitz et al, 1990), liver (Borowitz et al, 1990), penile (Martins et al, 2002), lung (Van de Rijn et al, 1994) and trichilemmal (Chaichamnan et al, 2010) cancers. The studies have shown the correlation between CD34 with many clinicopathologic factors as well as the ability of this marker as a prognostic factor.…”
