title: [Diagnosis of papilloma viruses in cervical cancer in 414 women from Wielkopolska region by the immunohistochemical assessment].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Cervical cancer in Poland is second most common type of cancer, after breast cancer. There are known risk factors of cervical cancer development and the most serious one is human papilloma virus infection (HPV).
  
  
  METHODS
  The aim of our paper is present the result study 414 cervical cancer of women from Wielkopolska region treated at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Karol Marcinkowski University of Medical Sciences in Poznań.
  
  
  METHODS
  In morphological study grading, staging and vascular invasion were estimated. In cervical cancer tissue papillomaviruses PCR method were used. In immunohistochemical study, expression of proteins checking the cell cycle, share in signal transduction to nucleus, cell receptors for steroid hormones and viruses oncogenic proteins were investigated. In the part of cancer gene mutation of p53 (60 cancers) i k-RAS (40 cancers) were searched.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In cancers HPV 16/18 infected vascular invasion were more frequently (p < 0.013). No statistically significant difference in cellular proteins expression in the HPV16/18 positive cancers, HPV16/18 negative and cancers without HPV was observed. However significant difference were demonstrated in proteins expression depending from degree of cancer stage.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The result of these studies suggest that super expression for EGFr is poor prognostic factor in the early stage of cancers (I-II0).
