Abstract:
Ki67 immunostaining was performed on 48 cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix and AgNOR silver staining on 29 cases. There was no correlation between the clinical stage of the tumor and the two methods of staining but both methods correlated with histological grade. There was no correlation between the two methods of staining in 17 case where they were done on adjacent blocks of tumor tissue. High Ki67 score but not high AgNOR count was significantly associated with early recurrence.
