Abstract
Worldwide, endometrial cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed malignancies in women and a notable cause of death. The aim of this study was to perform image cytometric DNA ploidy analysis on a prospective material of endometrial adenocarcinomas in order to determine potential correlation between ploidy status and their histological features. The analysis was carried out in fresh tissue samples resected by implementing complete hysterectomy in a series of patients (n = 126). We found that ploidy status using image cytometry correlate with histologic type, grade and stage in endometrial cancer and aneuploid tumor samples are associated with aggressive phenotype statistics. Furthermore, DNA ploidy should be used as a reliable and applicable prognostic marker in the routine clinical practice.
