[Blood-type and rhesus distribution in Armenian women with endometrial carcinoma]

ABO blood-type and rhesus distribution were studied in 548 Armenian women with endometrial carcinoma according to Rh-Hr system. The control group included 33,413 plus 440 healthy Armenian women with similar blood characteristics. The ratio of individuals with AB (IV) Rh (-) blood was found to be significantly higher (p < 0.05) as compared to controls. It is suggested that these findings should be taken into account when forming high-risk groups of Armenian patients with endometrial carcinoma.
