title: [The influence of microvessel density in the tumor on the prognosis in patients with stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer after surgical treatment].
abstract: A study of the prognostic role of microvessel density in tumors of patients with stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was performed from June 2008 to June 2011. Determination of microvessel density using the marker CD31 was conducted in 114 patients. Microvessel density was significantly correlated with tumor size: so at greater than 3 cm in diameter, the content of microvessels was 68.7 +/- 3.1, with a smaller tumor size--48.6 +/- 4.5. Independent prognostic markers in patients with stage I-II NSCLC after surgery are histological type (HR = 2.97), tumor size (HR = 4.5), and the number of microvessels in tumor (HR = 3.2).
