Ki67 Proliferation Index as a Histopathological Predictive and Prognostic Parameter of Oral Mucosal Melanoma in Patients without Distant Metastases.

Abstract:

:Background: To investigate the relationship between clinical and histopathological characteristics and overall survival of patients with oral mucosal melanoma (OMM) without distal metastasis in order to provide predictive prognostic information of OMM. Methods: Ki67 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry in 123 patients with OMM without distant metastases. The associations between Ki67 expression and clinical features and overall survival (OS) of patients were statistically analyzed. The Ki67 levels of the primary and recurrent lesions from 14 OMM patients were compared. Results: Univariate analysis showed that tumor type and cervical lymph node (CLN) status, as well as Ki67 expression, were all correlated with survival. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis identified Ki67 expression and CLN status as independent prognostic factors in OMM patients. Further, we found that Ki67 expression was associated with clinical tumor type of OMM. Moreover, with a cut-off point of 20%, patients with lower Ki67 scores showed a survival advantage over those with higher Ki67 scores. Conclusions: Ki67 expression may be a useful pathological predictor of survival of OMM patients without distant metastases.
