Incidence of SPINK1 staining positivity is considerably lower in our TMA analysis (7.8%) than the 30% reported previously in a Finnish cohort of ovarian cancer patients [16], but the trend we see of highest positivity in mucinous tumors (62.5%), followed by clear cell (13.8%), endometrioid (9.8%), mixed epithelial (9.5%) and serous tumors (4.1%), is qualitatively consistent with the previous report. The gene discussed is SPINK1; the disease is ovarian carcinoma.
