Abstract：
:The aim of our study was to describe the expression of c-erbB-1, c-erbB-2, c-erbB-3 and c-erbB-4 in endometrial cancer tissue and its correlation with clinicopathologic features and prognosis of the patients. One hundred and six cases of endometrial cancer were identified from the archives of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the University of Patras. Tissue specimens from endometrial lesions were immunostained for c-erbB-1, c-erbB-2, c-erbB-3 and c-erbB-4. Statistical analyses were performed using the chi square test, Kaplan-Meier method and Cox analysis. We found a significant association between c-erbB-1 expression and patient survival. A reverse correlation was found between tumor grade and c-erbB-1 expression. Tumor grade was not significantly correlated with the expression of the remaining three receptors. Stage of the tumor showed no relationship with the expression of these receptors. The ability to predict increased risks of advanced disease, recurrence, and death from abnormal molecular markers detected in curettage or endometrial biopsy specimens will facilitate pretreatment referral of these patients to gynecologic oncologists for definitive surgical treatment.
