The aim of this study was to evaluate expression of cyclooxygenase -2 (COX-2) in invasive duct carcinoma of the breast (NST) and to correlate its expression with the available clinicopathological properties of cases of invasive duct carcinoma of the breast (NST) to assess the probability of using it as a prognostic marker. Expression of COX-2 using immunohistochemical staining was detected in 100% of the breast carcinoma samples. Lymph node status was highly significantly correlated with COX-2 overexpression, T stage in tumors were significantly correlated with COX-2 overexpression and there was inverse correlation between COX2 versus increasing age. No statistical significant correlation could be detected between COX-2 stain versus grade and tumor site. These results may suggest that COX-2 overexpression is associated with aggressive features and poor prognostic parameters in breast cancer Issued also as CD Breast cancer Cyclooxygenase-2 Invasive ductal carcinoma Hanan Hassan Mohamed Ali , Supervisor Maha Mosaad Mosaad , Supervisor Mohamad Faisal Darweesh , Supervisor http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf Aml Cataloger Nazla Revisor ddc TH 55769 55769 ddc 0 CUCL cl210 2024-02-11 Cai01.11.27.M.Sc.2015.Ya.R 01010110068430000 2023-09-22 00:00:00 TH ddc 0 CUCL cl2u8 2024-02-11 Cai01.11.27.M.Sc.2015.Ya.R 01020110068430000 2023-09-22 00:00:00 68430.CD CD
