Abstract

Objective: To identify immunohistochemical markers of uterine myoma recurrence. Materials and methods: The study involved 13 patients (Group 1) with newly diagnosed uterine myomas (UM) and 18 patients (Group 2) with recurrent uterine myomas (R UM). All participants underwent laparoscopic reconstructive surgery at the Department of Operative Gynecology of the V.I. Kulakov NMRC for OG&P. Myomatous tissue and nodules of patients who underwent organ-sparing surgery were submitted for pathomorphological and immunohistochemical examination. Analysis included evaluation of the expression of a proliferation marker (Ki-67), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), progesterone (PgR), and estrogen (ER) receptors, p16 protooncogene, and p53 anti-oncogene. Results: VEGF expression was higher in tumor tissue compared to myometrial samples in patients in both groups. The level of Ki-67 in myomatous nodules in Group 2 patients was higher than in Group 1 (p=0.031), which may reflect the proliferative potential of the tumor most susceptible to recurrence. Higher levels of ER and PgR in the myomatous tissue of patients in Group 2 than in Group 1 probably reflect the potential for tumor growth. The expression level of p16 was higher in the myomatous nodules in patients in Group 2 (p=0.027). Apparently, changes in p53 protein expression are not the leading factor in the pathogenesis of uterine myoma, as no statistically significant differences were found in the expression of this protein between the patients of the study groups. Proteins and growth factors identified in tissue samples may be considered potential markers of the disease and its recurrence. Conclusion: High levels of Ki-67, VEGF, p16, ER, and PgR in uterine myoma nodules are pathogenetic factors of myoma recurrence. Morphological evaluation of myometrial tissues and myomatous nodules in patients undergoing surgery for uterine myoma for the first time and for recurrent myoma allows identification of molecular and biological mechanisms of uterine myoma development and recurrence.
