[SIMA leakage into stroma and lymph node metastasis in cervical adenocarcinoma].
The relationship of small intestine mucin antigen (SIMA) leakage into stroma and tumor lymph node metastasis was studied by SIMA immunohistochemical stain in the cervical adenocarcinoma of uterus. The results showed that the more SIMA leakage into stroma, the more possibility of lymph node metastasis. There was no difference between the SIMA staining intensity in the primary tumor or metastatic tumor. Mucin leakage into stroma may play an important role in cervical adenocarcinoma metastasis.
