A Clinical Study of Hormone Receptor Status in Carcinoma Breast
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 2
Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Worldwide the incidence is still on the increasing trend. Although many treatment modalities have become available which helps in early detection of cancer still hormone receptor status of the tumor plays an important role in treatment. It is essential to find the markers that have predictive an prognostic values. It predicts the chances of recurrence of cancer and also identifies which patients do and which do not benefit from adjuvant treatment. In this study we found out the expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), by IHC and analyzed the associations between these indicators and the clinic pathological characteristics
