Survivin in esophageal cancer: An accurate prognostic marker for squamous cell carcinoma but not adenocarcinoma.

abstract：:Microsatellite instability (MSI) has been reported to occur in a wide variety of sporadic tumours, such as colorectal and gastric cancers. MSI positivity has been associated with a particular clinico-pathologic profile, including the presence of abundant lymphoid infiltration, poor differentiation and a relatively goo...
