RESUMO
One of the most recent methods to determine the proliferative activity is silver stained nucleolar organizer region(AgNORs).The purpose of present study is by using mean AgNOR count per nucleus was found to be higher in benign soft tissue tumour as compared to apparently normal soft tissue and found to be statistically significant. An increase AgNOR score in benign, intermediate, malignant soft tissue tumour as compared to apparently normal soft tissue tumour. After histological confirmation, one more section was prepared which was subjected to AgNOR staining. Study was done in taking 32 benign, 05 intermediate and 23 malignant soft tissue. Benign soft tissue neoplasm which comprised 32 cases showed a range of mean AgNORs count 2.2-3.20 and intermediate group showed 3.10-4.61 and malignant group 4.90-6.70, so on comparing benign, intermediate and malignant group p value is found to be <0.0001. Hence results are statistically significant.
