CD34 evaluation of microvasculature in lung adenocarcinoma and its microvascular density predicts postoperative tumor recurrence by Zijian Qiu, Jiaji Wu, Guanchao Pang, Xia Xu, Jun Lin, Pingli Wang

“…Thus, the detection of intratumoral MVD is of great significance for understanding disease progression and predicting patient prognosis.MethodsTumor tissue sections of 238 patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) who underwent radical surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was carried out using a CD34 polyclonal antibody to determine intratumoral MVD, and the relationship of CD34-MVD with the clinicopathological characteristics and survival time of LUAD patients was analyzed.ResultsCD34-MVD was associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis, tumor recurrence, and patient survival status; patients with tumor size ≤3 cm (P = 0.015), negative for lymph node metastasis (P = 0.049), no tumor recurrence (P = 0.021), and survival (P = 0.042) had higher MVD. …”
