The aim the present study was to evaluate clinical significance MT carcinoma (SCC). Methods results: protein assessed immunohistochemically on 49 SCC specimens, analysed relation characteristics, overall disease-free survival. All examined cases showed positivity tumour cells; however, neither overexpression nor staining intensity significantly associated parameters. cellular distribution histopathological grade differentiation depth invasion (P = 0.0188 P = 0.0484, respectively). identified a significant predictor survival at both univariate (P = 0.0377) multivariate (P = 0.0472) levels. Twenty-seven (55.10%) epithelium adjacent tumour, being correlated (P = 0.0281), vascular (P = 0.0194), existence lymph node metastases (P = 0.0194). Conclusions: may be development progression could considered useful marker for management prognosis.
