Correlation of cytokines and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression with prognostic factors in ovarian cancer

Highlights • We evaluated patients underwent surgical treatment for ovarian cysts. • We performed immunohistochemistry study for cytokines and iNOS in ovarian cancer. • Prognostic factors were evaluated. • Strong staining for TNF-α is related to histological grade 1 and early stages.
