title: [Protein P53 in laryngeal cancer--no evidence of prognostic value].
abstract: The aim of the study was to verify a relationship between P53 protein expression and prognosis in laryngeal cancer. P53 protein levels were studied by immunohistochemical staining of 80 primary laryngeal SCC. Forty five tumours (56.3%) had a positive staining for P53 protein. There was no correlation between P53 overexpression and disease-free survival. No prognostic significance of P53 protein expression in laryngeal cancer was found.
