Abstract:Objective To study the relation between the expression of Survivin and VEGF with the clinical stages, pathological grades and lymphatic metastasis in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), and to study the correlation between the expression. Methods Expression of Survivin and VEGF was measured with immunohistochemical method in 72 samples of LSCC and 10 of noncarcinoma laryngeal mucosa. Results The expression of Survivin and VEGF in LSCC samples was higher than that in normal laryngeal mucosa (P<0.05). The expression was correlated with the clinical stages, pathological grades and lymphatic metastases in LSCC (P<0.05), but not with the sex and age of the patients. The expression of Survivin was positively correlated with that of VEGF (P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of Survivin and VEGF is significantly correlated with the clinical stage, pathological grade and lymphatic metastasis in LSCC.
