PDPN and cervical cancer: It was found that in early cervical cancer, the disease recurrence was associated with age (p = 0.004), histology (gamma = 0.802; p = 0.001), the depth of tumor invasion (gamma = 0.705; p = 0.002), the phenomenon of fragmentation in the tumor solid component (gamma = 0.786; p = 0.0003), and the presence of tumor emboli in CD34-positive vessels (gamma = 0.832; p = 0.00003) and podoplanin-positive vessels (gamma = 0.968; p = 0.0003).
