Zusammenfassung

Objectives. Different patterns of invasion (PI) which represent different grades of tumor cell dissociation at the front of invasion have been shown to be of prognostic impact in carcinoma of the cervix uteri. But, limited knowledge exist about molecular data influencing the PI. Methods. In 76 patients with cervical carcinoma FIGO IB-II the front of invasion was examined regarding different types of PI (closed, finger-like and spray-like) and its correlation to immunohistochemical expression of HGF-a, c-met and e-cadherin. Results. There were overexpression of HGF-a and c-met in 57% and 73% of all cases, whereas…
