Abstract:
Background and Objectives: Uterine smooth muscle tumors are the most common human neoplasm. They are divided clinically as benign and malignant but there is another group of lesionswhich is difficult to place in these two categories, so-called smooth muscle tumors of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) and differentiation of these tumors on the basis of H&E staining is impossible. The goal of this study was finding of distinguishing objective biomarkers and a surveyof proliferation markers comparing these three groups of tumors. Materials & Methods: Twenty one cases in each group of above mentioned tumors were selected randomly (63 cases in total ) from Pathobiology laboratories and studied by usingimmunohistochemistry (IHC) staining for Ki-67 expression and special Argyrophilic Nucleolar Organizing Regions (AgNOR) staining method.Results : Ki-67 was expressed in 63.15% of leiomyosarcomas (LMS), 4.76% of STUMPs and0% of leiomyoma group. Ki-67 expression between LMS and STUMP, and also between LMS andleiomyoma were significantly different(P<0.0001).Mean AgNOR dots were 2.55± 0.03 , 2.55, 0.66,4.04,and 8.12±0.13 in leiomyoma, STUMP and leiomyosarcoma,respectively. Significant differences between the three groups were observed (P<0.0001).Conclusion: AgNOR and Ki-67(MIB1) proliferation markers expression between LMS and STUMP were significantly different. Due to difficulty in differentiation LMS from STUMP, finding objective biomarkers is useful and practical. For this purpose, the present study recommend, Ki-67 and AgNOR staining which is a reliable, simple and rapid method.
