Carcinoma of the cervix uteri: an assessment of the relationship of tumour proliferation to prognosis
Abstract
The aim of this study was to ascertain whether assessing the growth fraction of cervical carcinoma of 28 patients, using antibody Ki-67, would be of value in clinical practice. The results showed no relationship between growth fraction and age, clinical stage, lymph node involvement or short term (3-5 years) survival.
