“…Previous studies have reported significant associations between high Ki-67 index and clinicohistopathological parameters, such as age [18,22], tumour size [18,30,32], histologic grade [2,3,18,27,32], ER/PgR status [6,8,18,27,30,32] and lymph node status [32]. We found a statistically significant correlation of high Ki-67 expression in metastatic breast cancer with increasing histologic grade, negative ER/PgR status, size of largest metastatic focus, but not with age, cancer type, tumour size and the number of nodes involved.…”
