Loss expression of FHIT closely correlated with clinicopathological features and post-resectional survival of gallbladder carcinoma / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective We aimed to explore the expression of FHIT and investigate its correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis of gallbladder carcinoma.Method Immunohistoehemieal detection of FHIT was performed on samples from 43 gallbladder carcinoma and 43 cholecystitis,and 2 years follow up was performed.Result FHIT protein was overexpressed in eholecystitis(x2=31.74,P=0.000).The overexpression was significantly related to differentiation and Nevin staging of gallbladder carcinoma(x2=4.47,P=0.035;x2=8.33,P=0.015);(rs=-0.56,P=0.031;rs=-0.68,P=0.014).Log-rank test showed that overexpression of FHIT had a good prognosis(x2=4.11,P=0.042).Cox analysis showed that expression of FHIT was all independent prognostic marker for postresectional survival of gallbladder carcinoma(RR2.89,95%CI[2.46-3.32]).Conclusion Loss expression of FHIT closely correlated with clinicopathological features of gallbladder carcinoma.The expression of FHIT was an independent prognostic marker for post-resectional survival of gallbladder carcinoma.
