[Histochemical study of estrogen and progesterone receptors in cervical carcinoma].
Estrogen and progesterone receptors were determined in 56 cases of primary cervical carcinoma tissue by histochemical methods. 42.86% of the 56 cases were ER positive and 46.43% PR positive. No correlation was found between ER and PR status and age, menopausal status of the patient and clinical stage. Adenocarcinoma had significantly higher ER and PR positive rate than squamous carcinoma. Highly differentiated carcinoma had higher ER and PR positive rate than middle- and dedifferentiated carcinoma. A positive correlation between ER and PR and cellular infiltration of stroma and peritumoral reaction of fibrin was found. The patients with ER and PR positive had a significantly higher 5-year survival. ER and PR may be used as prognostic factors in cervical carcinoma.
