Expression and Clinical Significance of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor D in Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

#2012

Introduction: The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGF-D) in tumor cells versus stroma cells in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN) and its clinical significance is still unknown.

Aim(s): To evaluate the expression of VEGF-D in GEP-NEN and its clinical significance.

Materials and methods: 212 specimens with GEP-NEN were examined. VEGF-D expression was detected using immunohistochemistry.
