摘要
The p53 expression in invasive breast cancers from 106 patients was correlated with clinicopathological variables to ascertain its usefulness for estimating prognosis. The p53 expression was significantly associated with the number of axillary lymph node metastases and the presence of internal mammary lymph node metastases; however, it was not associated with age, menopausal status, histologic type, or tumor size. Although p53 expression was a significant prognostic factor according to univariate analysis, it did not appear to be an independent prognostic factor according to multivariate analysis. Thus, the prognostic power of p53 expression is likely to be weak and therefore probably of limited clinical value. Nevertheless, the number of patients in our study was small, and we believe that an investigation of a larger series of patients is indicated.
