Cohort characteristics

Country: Italy

Region: Padova

Followed up time :

Subgroup 1 name : endometrial hyperplasia

Sample information

Conclusion: Maspin positivity in endometrial hyperplasia could be used to identify pseudo-atypical hyperplasia and could be considered a potentially useful prognostic parameter in those cases in which adenocarcinomas are well differentiated.

Sample type : tissue

Sample method: immunohistochemistry

Expression pattern : expression
