… g semi-quantitative methods. We also sought to investigate the relationship between stromal elastosis and estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER2/neu receptor tumor grade, and Ki-67 index. Furthermore, we evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stain method in quantifying elast …
Objectives: To evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) in colorectal adenoma and adenocarcinoma and to correlate this immunohistochemical expression with different clinicopathological parameters. Methods: The study was retrospectively designed. A total of 8 …
Letrozole is an oral aromatase inhibitor used in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancers in postmenopausal women. It acts by inhibiting the conversion of androgens to estrogen thereby lowering the estrogen synthesis in the body. We report a case of bilateral cystoid macular edema (CME) in a postmenopa …
… re simple, they do not always correlate with patient outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the status of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and proliferation marker Ki-67/molecular immunology borstel-1 (MIB-1) in the three grades of meningioma. Methods: We evaluated the data of meningioma patients who …
… he most common lymph node involvement was N1 (56.6%). Immunohistochemical assessment of these tumors with estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) biomarkers expressed positivity of 36.3%, 28.3%, and 41.6%, respectively. These tumors were immunohistochemically class …
… stic considerations. Female hormone expression in EC is extensively studied; however, data about androgen receptor (AR) expression in EC are sparse. We aimed to study AR expression in different types of EC at our institute and whether it had an impact on patient outcomes. Methods: A retrospective analysis of EC cases d …
