Abstract:
Objective:To explore a simplified and practical molecular typing method for endometrial cancer(EC),and its relationship with the clinicalpathological features.Methods:110 cases of EC diagnosed in our pathology center from January 2020 to May 2023 were collected for analysis,using immunohistochemical staining to clarify molecular classification,and analyzing the clinicopathological characteristics of each molecular subtype.The surgical methods included total hysterectomy with double appendages and pelvic lymph node dissection.Results:Among the 110 cases of EC,immunophenotypes were divided into three groups based on immunohistochemical results.There were 58 cases(52.73%) in the MSI-H group,and 4 cases(3.64%) in the p53abn group,and 48 cases(43.64%) in the p53wt group.Among the three molecular subtypes,MSI-H and p53wt were not associated with age,FIGO pathological grading,FIGO staging,depth of muscular infiltration,vascular infiltration,and lymph node metastasis in EC patients(all P>0.05).p53abn was associated with age,FIGO staging,depth of tumor muscle invasion,vascular infiltration,and lymph node metastasis in EC patients(all P<0.05),but not with FIGO pathological grading of EC(P>0.05).Comparative analysis showed that the molecular typing of the three groups was related to the age,FIGO pathological grading,FIGO staging,vascular infiltration,and lymph node metastasis in EC patients(all P<0.05),and not to the depth of tumor muscle invasion of EC(P>0.05).Conclusion:The simplified method of immunohistochemistry can serve as an effective approach for molecular typing of endometrial cancer.And it’s objectivity and repeatability can provide more precise information to clinical practice and can also provide equivalently important information for the diagnosis of molecular subtypes,and at the same time,providing scientific basis for the selection of treatment plans for EC patients.
