Summary: | Although several studies have evaluated PTEN loss in Prostatic Adenocarcinoma (PCa), PTEN loss correlation with different histological patterns only has a few studies. Although several studies have evaluated PD-L1 expression in PCa and its correlation with Gleason scores, as far as we know, there are no prior studies that have included a comparison between PD-L1 expression and histological patterns of PCa. This study aims to evaluate PTEN loss and PD-L1 expression by immunohistochemistry in different histological patterns of PCa.
The current study included consecutive 98 radical prostatectomy specimens with 151 foci with different Gleason Grade (GG) patterns.
The highest frequency of PTEN loss was observed in GG4 cribriform and glomeruloid patterns (59.3%, p |
