For 80.0% (28/35) of endometrial polyp cases, p16 immunoreactivity with moderate or greater intensity was observed in fibrous stroma, and 1 (3.0%; 1/33) case of endometrial hyperplasia showed weak p16 expression; however, none of the endometrial carcinoma cases (0.0%; 0/23) showed stromal p16 expression. Here, CDKN2A is linked to endometrial polyp.
