Thirteen clinicopathological variables and 5 biological markers were assessed using immunohistochemistry, including p53 (tumor suppressor gene), CD10 (tumor invasion marker), CD34 (angiogenic marker), Ki-67 (cell proliferation index) and CAM 5.2 (marker of lymph node micrometastasis) and investigated for associations with disease-specific survival. Here, MKI67 is linked to neoplasm.
