1 The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of immunohistochemical staining of stromal CD10 in predicting the likelihood of metastasis in phyllodes tumors. phyllodes membrane metalloendopeptidase Homo sapiens
2 METHODS: The expression of CD10 was studied in 43 phyllodes tumors (16 benign, 10 borderline, and 17 malignant) using immunohistochemistry to evaluate whether differences in expression correlated with the presence of, and or, development of distant metastasis. phyllodes membrane metalloendopeptidase Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSIONS: The expression of CD10 can be used to predict the occurrence of distant metastasis in phyllodes tumors of the breast. phyllodes membrane metalloendopeptidase Homo sapiens
