EXPRESSION OF CD31 IN PLEOMORPHIC VARIANT OF SOFT TISSUES MALIGNANT FIBROTIC HISTIOCYTOMA

Abdyeva S.V.

The data about expression of endothelial cells CD31 marker in SOFT Tissues malignant fibrotic histiocytoma (pleomorphic variant) in 41 patient are analysed. The patients enrolled in this study were treated at A.T. Abbasova City oncologic dispensary (Baku) and Oncologic Clinic of Azerbaijan Medical University for period from 2000 to 2009. Distinctions of expression level of CD31 are shown, depending on the degree of tumor differentiation, presence or absence of its spontaneous necrotization, limphoid infiltration of pathological nidus and amount of vessels in tumor tissue. The peculiarities of expression of CD31 at a pleomorphic variant of SOFT Tissues malignant fibrotic histiocytoma should be taken into account at planning of medical measures at this category of patients.
